Kanye West once accused President George W. Bush of being a heartless racist who "doesn’t care about black people." Now, after becoming more successful and sophisticated, he’s accusing Bush of being an accomplished artist who creates "very cool" portraits.
"People say, ‘You should not be sorry for your opinions,’" West said Monday during a speech at the Art Institute of Chicago. "George Bush … [giggle] … has some very cool self-portraits. I didn’t know he was an artist."
The Free Beacon could not agree more. Bush is a fantastic painter whose formidable artistic prowess nearly matches his extraordinary ability to relate to average Americans and win elections that helped him become the greatest living president of the United States.
Kanye will not be considered America's greatest living rapper until Tupac Shakur's death is finally confirmed. But in the meantime, a "Dubye" collaboration would go a long way toward uniting the country behind a shared artistic vision.
