maybe the artist is commenting on the change in B Obama his attempts to move to the so called center. It could be a comment on the death of Obama's principles in an attempt to get elected. Or an attempt to make news by being outrageous

Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing, and I applaude you for using it. I just wish you would have been a little more thoughtful about the subject matter, wishing someone (hince the title and drawing) is deplorable. BESIDES HE CAN'T POSSIBLY BE ANY WORSE THAN WHAT WE;VE HAD IN THE PAST 100 YEARS, AND HE AT LEAST NEEDS TO HAVE THE CHANCE TO BE ALL THAT HE CAN BE.

I was hoping the explanation would recontextualize it and illustrate a point. Nope.

Postmodern thought/art has been unmoored from the obligation of making a coherent argument. One need only project him/her/itself into the world. But, really, it all just comes off as pretentious bullshit.
