The right just realizes that you can be both an artist AND a contributing member of society at the same time.

I'm pretty sure Hitler tried to get into art school and wasn't accepted because he was not nearly good enough. I've seen one of his paintings. It was not "excelent."

Bush is a portrait painter. He's not bad, but it's basically carnival-level stuff that you'd pay $25 to have done.

Also, didn't Bush only begin painting after his retirement? Did Hitler continue to paint while leading his nation? I'm not sure if these two are the best examples of being "both an artist AND a contributing member of society at the same time."
