On Sunday night in Newtown, the President didn’t use the word “gun” at all. And yet his speech, to a striking degree, was all about them.

About The Artwork Barack Obama as one of the characters from Mike Leavitt's "Empire Peaks" series of satirical pop culture mash-up's. Each statue has 5 moving body parts at 4 points of articulation with removable accessories to lampoon their subject's fictional elements. Includes a footpeg-mounted 18" x 24" white-finished wood base for permanent display. Lando plays the token racial role of a non-integrated world of many races and species. He starts off as a good politician, turns bad, then redeems himself in the end. We hope Barack Obama turns the final trajectory of his last years as our U.S. leader in the same direction. Like Lando, Obama embodies a complicated set of ideals. As a nuanced pro-gun-control statement to his constituents, Obama wields the exact Bushmaster 223 used by Adam Lanza in the Newtown shootings. He demonstrates the fear that the weapon's strikes in its victims. Obama also holds The Rod of Asclepius, the Greek god of Obama's signature domestic achievement for human rights.
