- serif69, on 11/24/2008, -11/+60What's the phrase I'm looking for? Oh yeah. Idol worship.
- YME1280, on 11/24/2008, -2/+35Now that's a little excessive!
- DLXE, on 11/24/2008, -6/+34He hasn't even done anything yet!
- JKap, on 11/24/2008, -3/+29Warning: Objects on pedestal may appear smaller than they actually are.
- floridiot2, on 11/24/2008, -4/+26Just 2,001 pounds shy of epic.
- snowcrazy, on 11/24/2008, -10/+30Coincidentally, the material he's using to create the Obama head is the same material that fills George Bush's head.
- CoolHandLuke70, on 11/24/2008, -6/+22When will he be done so we can start worshiping it? /s/
- Alegoo92, on 11/25/2008, -3/+18Obama hasn't done anything yet. And the Lincoln Memorial and Mount Rushmore honor the nation's very greatest presidents, of which Obama has yet to become. This is idol worship.
- inactive, on 11/24/2008, -8/+22Thousands of Diggers will travel miles for the honor of fapping to his likeness.
- digitizit, on 11/25/2008, -3/+16Isn't it a little too soon to be singing his praises? I'm looking forward to what he can do, but it's possible he's just as bad as Bush. Hard to believe, but anything is possible. Let's see what he does once he's been in office for a year or two.
- sheeplescareme, on 11/24/2008, -2/+13the worshipping has already begun.
- BayouBengal, on 11/25/2008, -0/+10This artist has done busts of many presidents, don't get all bent out of shape since it is Obama. There would be a McCain one made if he were elected but of course that wouldn't make the front page of Digg nor be published in Houston Press. I enjoy reading the Houston Press every week but it does have a left leaning slant sometimes.
- oboshoe, on 11/25/2008, -2/+12They should animate it. Make it eyes flash, jaws move and have a loud speaker blasting "Change", "Hope"
I'd digg that just for sheer audaciousness - Rivetgeek, on 11/25/2008, -1/+10without the head part.
- inactive, on 11/25/2008, -1/+10This artist is getting ahead of himself
- Impressa, on 11/24/2008, -4/+13i wonder if he has enough concrete and steel for his[obama's] ears
XD - Vikaas, on 11/25/2008, -2/+11It's OVER 9000!!!!... ounces.
- oboshoe, on 11/25/2008, -1/+9Just a practice run for Mt Rushmore.
(and I'm not really kidding..10 bucks says it will be proposed before 2012) - Foenetik, on 11/25/2008, -1/+8haha he's done 42 or 43 of em. http://www.presidentialpark.com/
- Brassbud, on 11/25/2008, -0/+7IT'S MADE OF PEOPLE!!!
- GeeksSpeakFont, on 11/24/2008, -1/+8talk about having a big head!
- whiteguysamurai, on 11/25/2008, -1/+8Hold up there sparky, we don't even know if this guy is going to make a good president, and this guy is ready to commit him to stone?
- oboshoe, on 11/25/2008, -0/+6@foenetilk
Oh snap...Thats like a Presidential Easter Island. - epstephen, on 11/25/2008, -1/+7the grammar nazi in me thanks you for not saying "Ironically, the material..."
- akchrs, on 11/25/2008, -1/+7He should put it in the presidential library and tilt it's head back to reveal a switch to the Batcave.
- Striker101, on 11/24/2008, -5/+10Something else we really need in this world /s/
- innocentsinner, on 11/25/2008, -1/+6At the Presidential Park? Yes
- oboshoe, on 11/25/2008, -1/+6Thats what she said.
(thank you for the random compliment oh mystery internet person) - PilotPSK, on 11/25/2008, -0/+5Sounds like an awesome lawn ornament to be
- innocentsinner, on 11/25/2008, -0/+5This just goes to prove that David Adickes is continuing to make head sculptures of every US President.
- Catspaw, on 11/24/2008, -8/+12I wonder if the artiste realises that presidents are just fronts for the Military industrial Complex that Dwight Eisenhower warned about in 1961.

Someone should send him a copy of Endgame. - Harbinger67, on 11/25/2008, -0/+4It is also the material that composes Dick Cheney's heart.
- innocentsinner, on 11/25/2008, -2/+6First off, he does head sculptures of -all- the US Presidents to be featured at the park. Guess what, Obama's one now as well!
Even aside from that fact, he -is- the nation's first black president. Historic enough to warrant being included as one of his sculptures.
And lastly, he did an 18-foot statue of Andrew Jackson, and Jackson was a douche. - inactive, on 11/25/2008, -0/+4Andrew Bat-*****-insane Jackson
- JCEEZ, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3doo doo?
- StigNordas, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3The man's larger than life.
- b9gh47q, on 11/24/2008, -2/+5Obama 08!! Oh, wait.
- Alegoo92, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3Oh, that is different. Cool then.
- inactive, on 11/25/2008, -3/+6"Only those evil live to see their own likeness in stone."
- inactive, on 11/25/2008, -4/+7This just goes to prove the un-warranted fascination people have with Obama.
Half the left is already idolizing him as the greatest president ever.
The other half is already defending his failure and chalking it up to Bush.
He's not president yet liberals. - Alegoo92, on 11/25/2008, -1/+4I hope you don't vote.
- thegrantman, on 11/25/2008, -1/+4"live to see their own likeness in stone"
What part of that did you not understand? - Danby123, on 11/25/2008, -1/+4It says in the article that he did one for H.W. Bush. He does these for many presidents.
- inactive, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3And to complete his tribute to the three stooges, Stalin and Marx will be his next projects.
- rodon, on 11/25/2008, -2/+5No amount of toe tapping in an airport bathroom stall could get just any senator this kind of head.
- CrushThemTorg, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3Gutzon Borglum's zombie is going to rise from the grave and beat this guy's ass.
- inactive, on 11/25/2008, -2/+5Obama better watch out, he might get a big head himself with all the publicity. ;)
- Ajzimm3rman, on 11/25/2008, -0/+3It'll probably look like Stalin.
