For a DS106 Daily Create this week, I chose “Old West Wisdom Sayings.” There are 3 pages of Old West Wisdom phrases to choose from, but somehow I knew this phrase would be too good to pass up. A simple Google image search of the keywords “horse” and “politician” came up with this often posted and mocked image of shirtless/brainless Russian president Vladimir Putin on a horse. A quick Adobe Photoshop adjustment and out comes Western commentary on an Eastern political figure.
