From the classic Norman Rockwell painting, "Doctor and Boy" Another familiar Rockwell piece: "Freedom of Speech" You have to admit... its the first thing that came to your mind when you heard Obama's reference to global warming.
I reacted to "Freedom of Speech" viscerally before realising what I was seeing. My heart leapt as the awareness that Senator Obama is a perfect visage for this famous painting leads me to conclude that this is the way I see Obama, internally and perhaps unconciously, as a noble "everyman". He is the man in "Freedom...", the very embodiment of what Rockwell sought to portray.
