    So I'm sure you all know alex greys portrait of obama. http://www.alexgrey.com/obama.html

    At first I didn't like this painting. I wasn't fully trusting of Obama, I still am not. I wondered, why did Alex Grey paint this? Is Grey really that big a fan of Obama?

    But it occured to me today why Grey painted this and why. This painting is not so much a direct portrait of what Obama is, but rather this painting is a tool for the people to project energy onto Obama.

    I wasn't trusting of Obama because I felt he was a puppet. But I realized that the puppet quality of presidents isn't so much because they are inherently ill-intentioned. But rather, the people around them, the advisors, the people behind the scenes, control them by projecting onto them there concepts of reality. This portrait of Obama is essentially a way to thwart this by mass amounts of people projecting onto Obama a different kind of energy through this paiting. It's like a mass magick ritual by looking at this painting.

    I think he tells you in his article below the picture.

    You got it. ;)

    Plus, even he doesn't know everything.
    Don't they call some of them "Sherpas"?

    Just remember they are not all inherently ill-intentioned so be careful. ;)

    Seems to think praying to that image will make Obama do the right thing.

    Yea dont really know if thats gonna work. I like the message behind it, but hes in on the whole ordeal so looking at the pic isnt going to change his already brainwashed mind, although idk how they work the presidents these days but he has to be aware of it on atleast some level. I choose not to think about politics i dont bother getting caught up in that game again.
