Even the talented can be twerps.

I read that Nelson Shanks, the artist who who painted a portrait of President Clinton included a reference to Monica Lewinsky. It seems this moralistic prig, ..."could never get this Monica thing completely out of my mind..." I think he's a raging asshole for including any kind of reference, no matter how subtle to the painting and a sanctimonious moron for having such strong feelings about something that's none of his business. I have heard the Clintons hate the painting, and rightly so. I assume they don't own it. If they did I would recommend taking it out to the back lawn and burning it.
