I'd put it right next to my "Dogs playing Poker" painting in the den.

    it's interesting what kind of ideology constituted a republican back then and what it is now ...

    My favorite part of this is LBJ telling a dirty joke and Woodrow Wilson being horrified.

  • How long before this picture gets an update; one with a jovial black face in the melee?
  • Of course... anyone with even a 4th grade grasp on American political history knows that most of those men would hate each other.

    The Republican Party used to be the liberal party and the Democrats, lead by the extremely-conservative "Dixiecrats," more like today's "tea party," were racist, classist assholes.

    While you'll get a few clueless conservatives gleefully proclaiming that Democrats are all racist because the KKK were all supporters, they're just showing their total ignorance on the subject. Those same people all switched to the Republican Party once the Democrats started to evolve into what they are today. At one point, the Democrats could count on the South. Clearly... that isn't the case any more.

    Why o' why must we continually succumb to diving ourselves!
    Prince, could you take a stab at it for me & describe how you envision the primary power camps in 20 years from now?
  • Are both those paintings with people from the same party?

    If so.............Do they have one of all the presidents together doing something fun? Or is art divided down the party lines too in the states.

  • Those pictures are cool. They remind me of that one that has all the old crusty white guys laughing with the caption, "And then we told them the wealth would trickle down." :lol:

    I'm not sure what you mean.

    if you're suggesting that I try to find common ground with members of the KKK, you can kiss my donkey.
  • Why o' why must we continually succumb to diving ourselves! (This line was a rambling thought with referance to the changing platform idealogy you offered. It only works when we let them divide us.)

    :lol: No thanks. Just meaning with regards to that revolving door of changing ideology; how do you you see the main platforms to be in 20 years from now? I ask you as I'm sure you will paint a colorful picture for us!
  • how do you you see the main platforms to be in 20 years from now?


    How the fuck am I supposed to know? Do I look like Miss Cleo?
