Art Folk

Thursday, the night of the exhibition opening, I hung out with the other artists (you can tell their artists, because of the Frenchie artist caps some of them wear) at the opening party. Drank a lot, talked about painting a little, and argued with the angry looking guy about Bush. Even though I think he (Bush) is pretty much a crazy bastish, it's always more fun to take an argue than to agree, so I tried to find rational for a war at this particular time. In the end though, it all came down to me arguing against the angry looking guy's view that Bush makes every decision based only upon if it will get him reelected, and thoughts about other issues never enter his mind. Whenever I hear this, I always think it is way too simple of an idea. Though Bush is not the brightest bulb to ever be in the White House, I like to hang on to the belief that a complete idiot who is incapable of seeing antyting other than what would benefit himself would never make it that far. But then I start to think about who would make it that far, and think that only someone who cares about their own power above all else can do it. Maybe the angry guy is right. Anyway, that's a different topic. (he wasn't really angry, it was all in fun and we can still be friends)
