If you are familiar with Jon McNaughton's paintings, you will love this one.  This is his latest---his opinions on the current situation are stated very clearly by his paintbrush and his comments below, but no comment is really needed.  Many Americans today feel a sense of dismay and horror as we see our country in a downward spiral; economically, morally, and politically. President Obama's indifferent attitude and the continuous list of scandals and bad policy are leading the country to ruin. As an artist I am reminded of the old saying "Nero fiddled while Rome burned."   History believes that Nero himself may have set the great fire that burned a part of Rome during his leadership.  Afterwards, he blamed it on the Christians who suffered great persecution under his rule.  I see great similarities to what we are experiencing today.  Obama fiddled, while the people witnessed the demise of America.   Jon McNaughton
