Popular Anti-Obama Artist Releases ‘Runaway Slave’ Painting to Praise C.L. Bryant (& Expose Democratic ‘Enslavement’)
Artist Jon McNaughton is, once again, using his talents to make a social and political statement. His new painting, “Runaway Slave,” will be much like his old one in that it is likely to spawn controversy and debate. If the title of the artwork sounds familiar, it’s because it’s named after the Rev. C.L. Bryant’s documentary — a cinematic effort that explored the Democratic Party’s handling of racial issues.

McNaughton worked with Bryant to produce the piece, telling CBS News that the project was undertaken in an effort to praise the conservative civil rights leader (TheBlaze also profiled Bryant in August) for his efforts to help African Americans escape the chains that purportedly hold them hostage. Here’s how the artist describes the painting on his web site:
“This painting is a beacon to all Americans, to free yourselves from the government bondage that enslaves your very soul. Be free of the old taskmaster that will offer you all the comforts if you will but do his bidding. Rise up and be great in the sight of God! You are the ‘Runaway Slave’!”
The artist discussed the newly-released painting in detail, explaining that he believes that Democrats, like Obama, have failed African Americans.
“My position is that the Democratic Party has brought the demise of Black America,” McNaughton said in an interview with CBS Houston. “Currently, 95 percent of all blacks vote Democrat, and yet what do they have to show for it?”
The artist went on to note the economic issues that have hit the African American community, as he claims that 25 percent of this cohort are impoverished, 16 percent are unemployed and 30 percent of black babies are aborted.
The portrait shows Bryant unshackled and standing with a torch in front of the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial:

McNaughton’s decision to release the new painting one week before the election, he claims, was made in an effort to show the black community that Obama is not helping them.
Past paintings the artist have produced have also taken aim at Obama. One highlighted the president’s “dangerous atrocities.” Another showed the president burning the constitution — and a third presented Obama trampling the constitution.

Posted on October 29, 2012 at 5:56pmIt was a Republican president who had to send the National Guard to Alabama when the Demorat governor, George Wallace, tried to prevent Blacks from entering the University of AL.
You would expect that Blacks would know this, but they don’t. Furthermore, they don’t care. They’re happy living on the crime infested, drug infested, single mother plantation that the Demorats have set up for them. George Wallace could not have done a better job himself.

Posted on October 29, 2012 at 7:03pmThey also forget that it was democrats who instituted Jim Crow laws and kept blacks from voting. And they totally miss that democrats now keep many of them in the slavery of dependency. Look at the destruction of the minority family that began when welfare began. Many are trapped in inner city schools controlled by democrat unions who do not educate them!

She said the following….. “We’re going to have to change our conversation,we’re going to have to change our TRADITIONS, our HISTORY”. Now I ask you…. how do you change history? I’ll tell you how, you ignore it, you rewrite it, you determine what is advantageous to you ideology to erase. These people are dangerous. Please, if you love this country, do your homework.

Posted on October 29, 2012 at 9:11pm@Alternativethought…. My grandfather, a Hungarian immigrant, passed away in 1964. As a young woman I had a conversation with him about the black unrest in the South. He said to me in his broken English…. “The black man will not be happy until he has the white man in chains”. At the time I thought he was a silly old man. I no longer think that, now I think he was a prophet.I fear for my race and my country. I honestly believe it may be too late.

Now I ask you…. how do you change history? I can tell you how it has been done for the last 40 years. the percentage of college professors who are liberal is nearing 99%. colleges will not hire conservative scholars. they don’t teach civics and they use text books which contains their own American history….not actual American history. this is a part of the plan. take over education, healthcare, remove religion/God from schools/courthouses, ruin the economy etc., until the country falls apart.

Posted on October 31, 2012 at 9:28amYou’re quite right about current events and recent history, but quite likely you do not know the true history of the War for Southern Independence. One aspect of that is this: when Lincoln crafted the Emancipation Proclamation it applied only to those Negroes over which Lincoln had no legal authority, those who lived in the Confederate States. It did not apply to those enslaved Negroes who lived in the Federal States. You are correct that modern-day day Republicans have a clean slate where civil rights are concerned regarding Negroes, but it was not always so.

Posted on October 29, 2012 at 6:37pmShylow you dont understand how lowering taxes works then. Lowering taxes does not cut revenue to the federal government. IT INCREASES IT. It allows the private sector to GROW. MORE jobs, more prosperity, more people will be paying taxes.
Please examine Reagan years a little more closely. Objectively.
This liberal administration has spent more than all presidents combined. If you were upset at Bush for his spending (I was too) then how can you conclude Barack Obama is the solution to that problem? Honestly, do you think democrats are the party of fiscal sanity?

2 people making 30,000 a year taxed at 15% will pay $9,000 to the globerment.
what is so hard to figure out SHY..? other than people making that much that are divorced has 5 kids and is on assistance actually get more money back than paid in.
But I believe you point was that Repubs are war mongers so socialism under BHO is better than war?? but there is no evidence of that being true either, Dems like war also as it is good for growing government unlike Repubs it is good for businesses making the product for war.
the only option is to be an isolationist but for that to work you absolutely need to blow up any country that tries to violate that solidarity otherwise you are just bear bait.

Posted on October 29, 2012 at 5:41pmSince the dawn of history the blackman has owned the continent of Africa – rich beyond the dream of poet’s fancy, crunching acres of diamonds beneath his bare black feet and yet he never picked one up from the dust until a white man showed to him its glittering light.
His land swarmed with powerful and docile animals, yet he never dreamed a harness, cart, or sled. A hunter by necessity, he never made an axe, spear, or arrowhead worth preserving beyond the moment of its use. He lived as an ox, content to graze for an hour. In a land of stone and timber he never sawed a foot of lumber, carved a block, or built a house save of broken sticks and mud.
With league on league of ocean strand and miles of inland seas, for four thousand years he watched their surface ripple under the wind, heard the thunder of the surf on his beach, the howl of the storm over his head, gazed on the dim blue horizon calling him to worlds that lie beyond, and yet he never dreamed a sail.” — Charles Darwin

Posted on October 29, 2012 at 7:16pmShylow,
Newsflash; Linclon was wrong, all men are created men, but all men aren’t created equal. In the parable of talents; God created 1 one man with 5 talents, one with 2 talents and one man was given 1 by God. Each man was FREE to use his talents as he saw fit, in an effort to increase his master’s estate. The faithful man with 5 talents was given 5 more, and the faithful steward who was given 2 was given 2 more.
God is saying here that he is looking for productivity. The way the master increased his estate was by entrusting more to those who produced the most.
The man with 1 talent hid his talent and because he was unproductive, it was taken from him and given to the most productive.
In your narrative, the man who made 5 talents more would have to give his income to the unproductive servant, contrary to God’s ways.
No doubt there is greed. Having a Biblical world view kept greed in check in times past, but man is loosing his moral compass. The answer when this happens is; change the system. If a man can’t govern himself than government restraint must be enforced. In the end, the cure (government control) is worse than the disease (greed).
The cure is to we need to restore and reinforce man’s moral compass and return to Christian values. We need a reformation, not more government regulation.

It has all of Obama’s past, present, and future agenda. It has everything from Obama’s illegal Uncle to Obama’s Christmas tree with communist ornaments.
