Meet Gary. Gary is a staunch Democrat in a town in a county in a region that is overwhelmingly Republican. He and his wife have decided to use their house and garage to let people know their feelings about the current administration.

    I like anyone who stands up for what they believe, whether I agree or not, and I really love "feelings". Great shot.

    Why not chef009 ? this subject is less boring than flowers. Do not take me wrong; I love flowers, I have some many pictures of flowers and I havent post them because, I know I will see more in photographica even better than my pictures, sometimes I see many posts with flowers that I wish I could see a different and vanguardist post with people included, like this democrat man. This is america, the beautiful!

    What impressed me was his support of our troops, Despite his strong feelings of Bush. Great showing of an American life!

    Well John, Gary certainly has a message to convey, and you have covered it well. Being a nature lover, the sky in the background got my attention.....beautiful.

    I liked garage best just cause I like old buildings. I'd like to know the other 179 rules! 8o) He sounds like everyone in my family they are all staunch Dems, don't care who they vote for or their policies just the party. I always get a kick out of the fact that everybody blames the presidents, Democrats or Republicans, for everything wrong and most of the entrenched congressman that have been deciding policy for the bigger parts of their and our lives fly under the radar. I respect the guys convictions and took a vow to defend his rights so I have no problem with his displaying his views or with you displaying his display John! Good work! Miztli, I don't want to speak for Chef, but I think he was joking. I also enjoy the flowers so keep them coming!

    Wow... This is somebody who feels so strongly about things, that they get out and posterize them!!! Now that's some intense emotion!

    A good display of photojournalism, John. You certainly are a well rounded free spirited photographer. It is evident in all your shots. Photographica, count your blessings. You have austinspace on board.
