I ran across this today. Not sure if it's already been linked in this thread. But someone re-worked the rollover comments on McNaughton's Jesus and the Constitution painting.

Jesus and the Constitution Against the Evil Hordes"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

It's better online than in print because the pictures are in color.

Originally posted by Omaha 680 View PostI'm not a fan of McNaughton by any stretch. But Dixon likely got the name for his paintings from FDR. FDR appropriated the term from Graham William Sumner, who wrote his Forgotten Man essay over 50 years earlier. The original Forgotten Man (Sumner's) is much closer to McNaughton's than he is to FDR's/Dixon's Forgotten Man.Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia

Originally posted by Omaha 680 View PostI would guess probably not. I just found the quote that Solon posted interesting, because Rees surely has read Sumner, and knows the origin of the Forgotten Man. Yet he writes McNaughton's appropriation of the title is "ironic" and "troubling" because McNaughton is conveying ideas diametrically opposed to those of Dixon. But it seems Dixon and FDR already appropriated the Forgotten Man from someone with ideas diametrically opposed to them. Double irony!Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia

Cardiac was on this a long time ago. Also, if you keep reading from the linked post, you get a priceless wedding story from RF (God rest his cyber soul).
