Stop us if you've heard this one before. (You have, but keep reading.) Some crusty old white guy Republican dude says a racist thing. There's a good chance he doesn't even realize it is racist because he is too busy wanting his country back and missing the good old days when it was perfectly A-OK and acceptable among polite society to say racist things. If enough people explain to him that, "Hey, that thing you said is racist, AND THAT'S WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!" he just might apologize. Not for being racist. Heavens no. Not for saying a racist thing. Certainly not that. But
His apology posted, Barbour offered guests bowls of Brazil nuts* and commented that his new silver tea service was as shiny as a highly polished mirror.*
The G.W. Bush painting is actually quite touching. "Two Old Lesbians Exchange Vows" is an inspired piece that shows Bush's growth as both an artist and a person.
Barbour further stated that he meant no offense when he referred to the Secret Service as inept and "just swinging off the porch like monkeys". Furthermore, when he referred to White House garden as the "watermelon patch" he was simply using folksy southern vernacular and no one should really be offended. In fact, virtually any brain-dead, seemingly racist bile that spews from his mouth should just be seen as good old, down home charm.
I'm particularly fond of #4, reminds me of Labor Day Weekend in Maine.
True that, but your knowledge of art def puts mine to shame. That said, actor 212, thanks for the link and click baits - interesting stuff!
I do the Twittering from time to time, but I totally suck at it. If Wonkette allowed comments, I would totally suck at that too.

I enjoyed Bush's painting, "Staring at Headlights."
Political correctness concern troll, Nelson Mandela?
So I guess God can't figure out the concept of a stage name? Makes me wonder how all knowing he is then.
Sorry Joe, but I joined the "No Liebermans" party instead.

What's the opposite of "folksy"? "Uppity"?
