dear jill,

bravo on sticking your neck out there to make a political statement with your photography. most of us wouldn't have the cojones to do it. i know i wouldn't. of course there will probably be a brutal backlash, and some will say you went too far, but at the end of the day, political expression is one of the fundamental uses of art. sure, it's over the top, a bit disconcerting, and possibly not the best career move, but someone had to do it and you did it expertly. if your regular work didn't make people remember you, this certainly will (and that's half the game anway). maybe we should start calling you michael moore.

gobama.

cheers,

lisa
