This Is Just Kinda Interesting
Bubba, Jr. is an artiste. In his latest show out in El Lay, this was one of the featured pictures.
.
What you’re looking at is the official portrait of every member of congress layered over one another centered on John Boehner’s mouth. The title is “none of us is as evil as all of us.”
I thought it was interesting that the picture turned out to be very male, very white, and pretty damn creepy. In fact, every time I look at it, I see Tom DeLay.
This is a symbolic picture of congress. I wanna work to make it more feminine and far less like Tom DeLay. Yes, I do.
Can we get an Amen! or would that be AWoman!!
1I expect the result would be similar if you layered every U.S. President–just a bit more whiskery.
2Brilliant plan, JJ!
3OK, now that IS creepy. Before reading, I saw Tom Delay too! I guess he is the personification of all thing evil.
Bubba Jr has a gift. He can see dead politicians.
4OMG! I thought it was a blurred version of Tom DeLay’s mugshot that went the rounds a few years back! Until you explained what it is. This puts the Fear of Evil into my heart. Our entire Congress is really Tom DeLay in a police lineup — or ought to be.
That doesn’t even look like Evil Speaker’s mouth — it’s not hangdoggie enough.
5I’m not so sure that Tom Delay isn’t upholding the “feminine” part quite well …. he looked remarkably correct in all those ruffles on Dancing With the “Stars”
6Looks like Tom Delay to me. Downright spooky. I’m impressed with Bubba’s ability to persevere in the process of creating this. Bless him!
7Aack! I saw Tom Delay too before I scrolled through all the text. Must be the true Rethug id showing.
8Ditto. Made me think of Hot Tub Tom’s mugshot. Makes me shiver, and not in a good way..
9Let’s just hope it’s not the Ghost of Congress Future. Yipes!
10I see Milton Berle. A comedian is appropriate, yes?
11I too saw Tom DeLay.
Scary
12But Wyatt_Earl (11), to be a comedian one must be witty and able to see the absurdity in politics. Not too many of those types in Congress, unless you count the Democrats.
13Oh, thank God somebody else sees Tom DeLay in that **it eating grin! I thought I was losing it cuz I don’t get out of the house much!
14Creepy and ingenious.
15Looks like Billy Crystal.
16Bubba, Jr is amazing. That picture appears to be in motion, expanding, contracting and pulsing. He’s captured the GOP head in ready to explode mode. “very male, very white, and pretty damn creepy.” Yep, that’s them.
17Spooky Tom was my first impression. Of course, the House is plenty spooky.
18Tom DeLay was my first impression too. And yes, it is creepy. I’m sitting here with my credit card, giving money yet unspent to various candidates.
