My Turn


This book cover is thoroughly wrong as you see right off, you must hate it. You must. For so many of your own reasons you must, assumption inherent in the title, reversal of political position, knowing how American politics works, the brutal depiction. You must hate this for other peoples' reasons that you know about, ew ick guns, she would not do that, she would not touch a gun. You must hate it for its visual assault on reality, and you must hate it for what it suggests and it suggests too much at once and that is why it is perfect. Perfectly disturbing. Perfectly post-modern. So worthy of failure for so many reasons it will surely find some success. Just as the artist already has.

The artist genuinely believes this depiction is sexy. 

Artist Sara Sole: 
“I love Hillary Clinton, I support Hillary Clinton, I very much want her to be president. I will certainly vote for her.” 
She's painted dozens of paintings of Hillary. Here.

Sole was featured in Politico in an item titled Extremely Ready for Hillary. She connected through Facebook the author of the book whose writings attack Hillary from the left.

Got that? The artist is extremely ready for Hillary but sells her art for a book cover that attacks Hillary from a left point of view.

Sole knows all this.
“He’s not some kind of rabid misogynistic guy. He does his research; he’s assured me he’s going to take a very measured approach.”
Very well. Measured. That cinches it. Plus she gets her art out there. It's all good. With one condition. The original title "Stop Hillary" must be changed, no such anti-Hillary title can be acceptable to Sole, the cover artist, it must be changed to "My Turn." Because Sole the cover artist believes that it is Hillary's turn. Ha ha. She laughed.

Her turn to be president. President of United States is a turn-having thing.

Sole is a serious-minded artist that experiences periods of inspiration and obsession. Of Sole's artistic career arc this will be her 'Hillary period' as Shepard Farley has his Obama period.

Henwood, the author of the book with the title so wrong, knows that to normal people the title "My Turn" sounds like a brazen demand to take power through entitlement so he says to Sole, the cover artist, "Okay. Fine with me." While Sole honestly believes her new title is attractive because she really does believe it is Hillary's turn.

I guess this means Monica Lewinski is next, then Chelsea, then the cat, then zombie Bill and repeat.

Bill told Monica that happiness was a warm gun. Hillary was not amused.

Great find, Chip!

Hillary topless. Hillary nude.

Maybe she loves Hillary a little too much.

Maybe she's the last one in that Brazilian threesome.

I came across this other woman (not one of Bill's, as far as I can tell ;) who, is a leftist and seems to despise Hillary.

Sane Progressive.

Hillary's coronation is not a foregone conclusion by any means.

The parents of at least two of the Marines who went to Ambassador Stevens' aid and died at Benghazi have publicly expressed anger at Clinton. We know American forces were two hours away from Benghazi and the embassy was under attack for, I think, seven hours, maybe nine. The failure to send planes or troops has never been explained. Anyway, can a private citizen take a public official to court, in this case the President and the Sec. State, for dereliction of duty? If that's a stupid question...well, you'll tell me.

They didn't want to look like there was something to defend. Something to do with Syria.

The biggest loss? The big FU that Hillary and Obama gave to parents of kids in uniform and to future kids in uniform. The utter demoralization of military families that continues. That will not change w/o a sea change in the CiC.

Wouldn't Jeb Bush have even more right to say "my turn"?

It sounds ridiculous doesn't it? In fact his name and the idea of dynasty is one of the biggest things the Right has against him. Such ideas don't really fit on that side.

But Democrats have no need for merit. They actually like royalty, and dynasties, and believe some people have a right to rule over others without ever earning it. Democrats would be loyalists if the revolution happened today. Maybe that's why they don't respect the Constitution, or the founding fathers. It's just not where their heart is.

Artist Sara Sole has a closed and narrow mind that responds positively to authority, direct orders stated in simple monosyllabic words. Change. Hope. Want. Vote. I. I. I. I.

Is Sara Sole an artist or a propagandist?
Either way, is it not clear that she's a really really realllllly bad propagandist or artist?
Because that poster just screams Mao mao mao, how d'you like it how d'you like it?
And not in the good disco song way but, rather, in the get on your knees and pray way.
Sara Sole will get fooled again.
