Menderman sent this illustration published by Politico. They used it for an Obama retrospective. He wanted to know how I interpret the art.
Let’s all interpret it.
UPDATE: This was my initial thought when I saw the art. (I put a watermark strike through in it because I don’t want it to be used. It’s not fair to the artist.)
Looks like a sinking ship at first glance
The bigger they (think) they are, the harder the fall.
bad weave?
shit runs down hill
He’s pondering how many schlongs he could take up the chute before he has to leave the White House.
I see a person looking back on where he came wondering what possessed him to climb all these steps for a such a dark and terrible view.
Well it damn sure ain’t no Stairway to Heaven.
The Great Sphinx of Shicago. I win. Damnit!
All those steps taken and still an empty suit.
….as Obysmal bumbles to the end of his journey, climbing to the top of his mind’s creation, Mt. FluffMore, he looks back at the full ‘moon’ and fondly remembers his ‘Reams of My Farthole’
Atop Obama’s ‘Mt Rushmore’ a lonely figure in a crisp suit is disappointed to see that no one else joined him along the nation’s transformation. Walk it back or jump? There are 11 months to go….
A tiny man perched on his gigantic sense of self before descending down to the dismal reality of who he actually is.
I’m having a hard time getting to the interpretation part because I’m still trying to figure out how you can get such nice, sharp jagged edges when you are finger-painting with your own shit.
A stairway straight to the depths of hell for that traitor!
To me, it looks like a man standing on the head of a reptile; however, I have no interpretation.
What’s wrong with you people? . . .
it’s obviously the yodeling mountain climber game from The Price is Right.
Bingo!!!!!!
You saved me from having to comment. That is my interpretation.
He’s looking back to his beginning. He’s almost at the end of the road. He’ll have to go back because of who sent him here.
I’d call it ‘His Road from/to Perdition’.
Stair way to no where.
That IS an interpretation. A great one.
Looks like the haul pile at a shit mine.
It’s lonely at the top of Mount Denial…
JUMP!!!
… with the most arrogant looking stern ever.
Shithead Stairway Silhouette
Quick! Somebody push him!
The secret back entrance to Man’s Country.
I can see Russia from this twenty-trillion pile of debt…
Shit oooozzes down hill go for it you P.O.SHIT
Second glance and answer.
This is the Cairo speech. He sphinx he’s cool
BO’tanic
It’s Dickarus flying too close to the sun with choom wings…
I thought it was Stevie Wonder.
Yes, it also reminds me of Sphinx, which in turn reminds me of Sphincter for Barry.
But if it was a sinking ship he’d already be gone. He’d have been on the very first lifeboat, throwing as many people overboard as possible before forcing someone else to row him away…
Great minds think alike or fools seldom differ ? = )
I see a little man who was hoisted up on a GIANT false impression of greatness and now he just realizes it is over, with nowhere to go but down.
Where’s a banana peal when you need it.
Oh. And thanks!!
It is obvious that the thing on the bottom is the Big Zero, but the man on the top isn’t necessarily him; it could be “any man.” I like BFH’s interpretation, but I don’t like to think that the face of America is Obama.
on first glance I see someone chopping their own head off. Then I see it is the collar.
barry has already smoked the banana peel, that’s why it’s not available.
“Gotta go down there and get Mooch out of the fridge again.”
Reminded me of an Aztec pyramid with all those steps that their human sacrifices had to climb in order to have their beating hearts cut out of their chests and held in the air, which is what he has done to those who still have hearts in this country, and to babies at Planned Parenthood.
All good interpretations, everyone. First thing I “saw” was little o with an indian headdress on.
But stairs make more sense and, yes, please JUMP!
i thought he hadd that rasta hair thing going on, but didnt think of Stevie.
when i first glanced at it, I saw the bow of a WWII sub emerging from the water. After I blinked, i notice rasta hair, but settled on “I have no clue how to interpret that rack of BS”
but whats the point? what does it mean? other than obomba is great?
This could be cool if he had a slinky.
America’s pinhead.
It’s dark and dismal. A overblown image signifying nothing.
a sad little dude
And lIke what’s up wIth the crowding requiring the bowed head?? Artistic humility? Watching swift departure down stairs? WhiSky tAngo foxtrot??
Sure to be another popular post subject for another day.
Fur already started it the other day when no one could post…
Stevie for the win !!!
If only he would ever descend.
Looks to me like the stairway God-given good sense used to leave Obama, forever.
