OMG, have you heard about former congressman and famous hairdo scofflaw James Traficant's sensational paintings? See a whole gallery of them here. They make me feel pink all over.
Maybe if we send Bob Barr to prison, we'll get all kinds of paintings out of him too. Rockwell-esque portraits of Papa Reagan in an overstuffed chair by the fire, with all of his drooling child-pundits at his feet. And of course, the famous "Barr beats Metro" with a GIANT Bob Barr stepping on the National Airport station on Metro. Bobby B was so proud when he almost cut off Metro's funding for not changing the signs at National Airport.
::sigh:: If only Traficant had died in a horrible, horrible transporter accident...
Egads. Someone should notify the Museum of Bad Art and let them know there's a new master on the scene.(http://glyphs.com/moba/) I think I may have to send Traficant some glitter paints. Think of the manes and tails that could adorn!
It always freaks me out when these super slimy guys have a hidden "talent"...like Ashcroft's songwriting (Gawd help us). But I have to admit, as a kitsch freak, if I had seen these ponies on ebay, I would've bid for 'em. They're truly craptacular. Especially the 'Beloved Horse', flipping it's mane in the wind, it's great big black eyes filled with love...
I wonder if John Wayne Gacy would have traded some of his clown paintings for a few horsie paintings? And I wish someone would commission a study as to whether guys like these grew up around prints of those children with giant eyes? http://besmirched.tripod.com/eyes.html
Apparently one can be too talented, too successful. Eager to secure one of these babies for my own, I hurried over to the site, only to find that, according to the beammeupart.com site, "As of January 14, 2006, Mr. Traficant is no longer permitted to partake in workshop activities, therefore he is not allowed to produce any more artwork. The vast amount of publicity attributed to our website and ebay offerings has triggered the Authorities to further restrict his freedom and his ability to express his creativity. At this time, we will be limiting our offerings to ebay. There will be no sales made through our website. We apologize for these unforeseen circumstances and wish you all well. Please continue to check the website, which is updated every Sunday, for further updates and changes in this regard."
No more artwork? Perhaps he can work in the cosmetology shop...
I looked. And I'm feeling a little creeped out that if some of them had not already been sold, I may have considered buying them. I miss his hair. He should definitely get a gig in the prison beauty shop!

Maybe they have a prison wig shop where he can use his considerable design skills.
