Hyperbole again? or are you really calling people her racist....

I don't think it was a shot at posters here. I think it was a general statement.

He's talking to people here... So I'm asking..
This man here will debate. He'll give as good as he gets. I've witnessed it all day. You take a shot at him he'll take one back. But he'll give you debate. Just like many of us took shots at BHO cause we weren't fans, he does the same with DJT cause he's not a fan.

I think if you engage sensibly you'll be quite surprised.

I can go along with that.

So who's the racist then... Conservative for not liking Obama (do you remember the Clinton presidency at all) or Democrats for telling blacks who disagree that they are uncle toms?

Use em up. Get those race jabs in there. Because it's losing it's power to change minds. Like the boy who cried wolf. People are starting to see through you. And once that's gone. Then what do you got?

The reality or not of your comment doesnt make my comment false...and you known that.

Sure...Your comment is not false. So what does that have to do with this? IMO..Both portraits were designed to be totally different than others before them. I have no problem with either of them..but..history is likely going to be unkind to both attempts to glaringly stand out.

Yea, it's not a bad portrait at all.

The portrait is fine. It just doesn't look like Mooch.

Yep. That was my initial take. If it actually looked more like her it would be much better.

Generally, I like the concept of hers much more than his.

Logic fail....good Gawd

You are posing a question that inherently is flawed....
-’conservatives who dont like obama’ doesnt mean they are all racist. Some may not like him for his tax policy, some may not like him for his stance on homosexual agenda etc etc etc.
-And yes, to my point, some just dont want a black president...psst these are the racists.

Do you listen to Rush Limbaugh? Just wondering. If not, you miraculously are using his tired playbook.

I think you will find that the conservatives here to a man/woman dislike Obama because he was a socialist ideologue - not because he was a black man.

Throwing out "racist" at the drop of a hat is just so bullsh!t......

That's a begging the question fallacy... If you're going to get in a snit over logic how about you use logically sound arguments.

"People just don't like a black president".....

Back it up, or it's a baseless accusation.

No, I'm working during the day but that's a sweet ad hominem you've busted out...

I really don't care what their portraits look like. No impact on my life like other things they did.

Their portraits are their legacy...if that's how they really want to be remembered so be it...
If they like them great. Bully for them.

If I was having my portrait done for posterity id rather not have it look like a seventh-grader did it or that the painter painted me in over a failed attempt at ivy wallpaper...

but that's just me.

The conservatives and Republicans are racist and hate immigrants. That's why they nominated a man married to an immigrant. 2nd place was a young (in presidential terms) Hispanic. 3rd was another young Hispanic. 4th was a Black man. And if you don't count the nutcase from Ohio who should have dropped out much earlier, 5th was married to an Hispanic immigrant. So its obvious Republicans are racists who hate immigrants.

Meanwhile the 5 Democrats were all very old white people.

Democrats never let facts get in the way of a good talking point.
