Bush in SoHo
In a Times story on Republican-friendly gallery art, local artist Scott Lobaido is quoted as saying, "If you don't believe in that politically, you're going to hate it." Ambiguity aside (I think what he means is that if you don’t agree with the message, you’ll hate the paintings), he’s dead wrong.
Check out a gallery of Lobaido’s completely unironic Staten Island kitch political pieces. Just because the guy’s a kook doesn’t mean some of these images don't say some very interesting stuff (however different it may be from what the artist intends). Among my favorites are the one of a smoking Sinatra walking away after having kicked the bejesus out of Mayor Bloomberg and that of muscle-bound gladiator Rudy G. spearing a beast with Old Glory. Not included on his page is this great one of a giant stars-and-stripes spider torturing Sadaam. Wow.

That strain again! it had a dying fall: O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound 1 That breathes upon a bank of violets, Stealing and giving odour!
Cowards die many times before their deaths: The valiant never taste of death but once. mike Now would I give a thousand furlongs of sea for an acre of barren ground.
He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his like again. vinnie Things won are done; joy's soul lies in the doing.
This above all: to thine own self be true; And it must follow, as the night the day; Thou canst not then be false to any man. trevor What's gone and what's past help Should be past grief.
