George Bush the artist, you're kidding

The news today had an article about George W. Bush, apparently he'd taken up painting now he was no longer a president. I suppose someone like him has to do something in their spare time. The pictures were in no doubt bloody awful. He got air time because he was was the unfortunate choice of president for an American public who must of been having a particularly backwards day when he won the election.  There's no change about him, he is still the not very bright man he always had been.  Except now he doesn't control enough fire power to bring a nuclear winter to the entire world. One picture shown was of Tony Blair, and this was given a fortunate comical appearance to it. Deserving of what Tony Blair should be remembered, the Tory in red clothing. The pictures he seemed to concentrate on were of famous world leaders, portraits. I doubt whether he painted them as they sat for him. He probably used photographs or TV. I have a 13 year old nephew who likes to draw and am sure he would do a similarly decent portrait. Maybe he'd do one of Bush. The thing is nobody would want to view it. Afteral the subject is a bit boring lets not say too much about the painter either.
