Bush's Iron Dream
No very serious commentary to go with this image. I just liked the imagery. Anyone who has read the book may also find it amusing. "A legend in his own mind," as the saying goes.Well, a little more info: the big object being waved aloft is known as the "Great Truncheon" in the novel. And if you suspect it may be a phallic symbol, you have no idea how correct you are. Add in the detailed, repetitive descriptions of the leather and chrome fetishwear and you've got the perfect metaphor for our current leadership.
