Wow this came out of nowhere. I follow so many people on Twitter, that if I don’t happen to glace at Tweetdeck now and then, posts just fly by. I happened to glance at a tweet from political super-blogger and pundit Michelle Malkin today. Her post asked for someone to do a quick Photoshop job of Harry Reid… now, despite my contracting for Vote iQ, which is fiercely non-partisan, I don’t really do much political design. I’ve done a few poli cartoons in the past, but the vitriol they tend to generate made me think twice. All that to say, I really don’t know much about Harry Reid, other than that I always see banners calling for his termination. I tend to be more libertarian yet conservative when it comes to politics, but as a Christian, I know that no human system will be the end-all and be-all of world peace or prosperity.
I just stepped up to the challenge, not knowing who the two folks were but thinking there might be some excitement out there, and I admit, I wanted to show off some killer Photoshop skills. And if more people come check out VoteiQ because of it, then all the better! This is what I did… it took all of 5 minutes, but it got a heck of a response on Twitter!
