Anyone else see if or interested in linking to it here?

That's Jeanne Moos. I don't think she's done a serious news story in her life. She's all about poking fun. I like her stuff.

She did mention BOTH artists, too!

Oh - as for the NYPost, they're hilarious. It's a daily, but comes off more like the National Enquirer in flavor.

Garth- Hah! You say "we" like we all get presidential commissions! Well, at least maybe this will be something you can think about in the future when painting such a subject.

Cindy- I do miss the Post. I used to read it everyday on lunch break when I lived in Syracuse. Page Six was it? I thought the comment about him making a gang sign was especially inventive!

Anyhow, I do happen to like the pose and I think if I did some searching I might find a president or royalty in such a stance. (I am envisioning someone in tights and a white wig.) Afterall, he was a 'groovy' president; he played the sax, had Fleetwood Mac do his campaign song, and jogged to McD's! (Among other things.) So it fits, I think.
