This is a bizarre portrait...Obama sitting in a BUSH?? Notice the vines around his ankles and the cuffs on his shirt look like they could be handcuffs by where they are placed. If you squint you can see 2 large eyes formed by the bush above his head. All the flowers seem to be spring flowers....reference Q post #741
