Philly.com …And so the Clintons hate the portrait. They want it removed from the National Portrait Gallery. They’re putting a lot of pressure on them. [Reached by phone Thursday, a spokeswoman from the National Portrait Gallery denied that.]

I’m glad to see that the artist didn’t blow his opportunity to get some licks in, there…
Dead links.
The pose and the look on his face sure fits the off stage Monica theory–so real, you expect him to drop his zipper and tell her bring him a cigar.

“…the most famous liar of all time.”
Now replaced…
Oh well. Records are made to be broken.
Looks like he has Slick holding a paper airplane, too.
It’s a national treasure now.
If Hillary were to ever be elected, I wonder if the artist for her portrait could work in a few bodies painting?
I know figure painting is hard, hell when I have a figure in one of my windows, I always let my flesh painter have final sway on the anatomy/stance.
But I gotta say, this painting doesn’t strike me as anything special, in fact it looks a bit askance.
Dr.Tar, I would hope the artist could work these into the portrait if she poses in the pantsuit…

Dr. Tar,
How about tracer rounds.
That ain’t Bubba, that’s Ted Koppel.
The painter didn’t quite capture it. Clinton was never that svelte. He’s always had that doughy, baby-fat look.
Cocksucker looks like he’s about to try to sell me a reverse mortgage.
Is he flashing a gang sign?
The dress is a shadow on the fireplace to Clinton’s left. The artist used a mannequin when Clinton wasn’t there to capture the dress look. No one would have noticed it if the artist hadn’t of mentioned it. BTW, he’s pointing at his zipper, another artist innuendo.
His head is out of proportion…too small.
Or is that another one of the artist’s innuendos?
I LOVE that this has hung in the National Gallery for years!
BWAAAHAAAAAHAAAAA!
Bet his fly is unzipped too.
Countdown to Killary sending a hitman to Vince this guy.
Look at the huge jacket! Yeah, not a great painting… But as long as they’ll take anyone’s work, I’ll send in some of my own I did of Michelle. They’ll love the one I did of her on a lazyboy with her junk slipping out of her boxers and a cat sitting below them ready to strike. *Meow*
Actual quote from the artist about B.J.’s session:
“Clinton was hard.” Ewwwww.
He looks like the captain of an 18th century whaling boat picking out the “cabin boy” for his nightly harpooning….what an ass-hole….
Awful picture, makes him look dis-shelved & creepy…….
Perfect for that violent psychopath
Where’s his cigar? (I know – – don’t answer that.)
I don’t see any dress.
I bet there isn’t any dress
I bet the artist just made that up to drive Hillary crazy.
I file this under fiendishly clever
It does look like Ted Koppel. Flashing the 2 finger split has many connotations and if this artist was having as much fun as I think he was I can’t wait to see his Obama portrait.
Hey now i just got done with the official Obozo portrait. Got the color right didn’t I?

If he’d really wanted to piss Hillary off, he could have painted Bill wearing the famous Ermenegildo Zegna silk tie that Monica gave him as a 50th birthday present in 1996, and which he was thought to have worn to send her a “message” when his remarks were televised from the Rose Garden on the day of her grand jury testimony.
