"2 Middletown men paint their outrage " Times Herald Record article
The painting on the back wall of the Majestic Carpet building off Route 211 depicts President Bush riding a rocket that has just destroyed the Earth.

The president, wearing a cowboy hat, holds a gas nozzle that is siphoning oil from a ruined planet.

Above the painting are the words: "Mission Accomplished."

Painter Matthew Ahrendt, 30, and his poet friend Joseph Somma, 33, both of Middletown, spent yesterday painting because they wanted to give voice to people who aren't heard. They decided three days ago, when gas prices hit $3.11 per gallon for regular unleaded, to do something.

Check out the mural, article:
