Left: Right / Right: Left

Left: Right / Right: Left by Bullneck.
The blue-striped shirted, brown-shoe'd gentleman on the right is reading the Federal City's 'liberal' newspaper while the blue-striped shirted, brown-shoe'd gentleman on the left is reading the 'conservative' newspaper. I think this shot explains a lot about American politics.

It would've been even better if they'd been sitting on the appropriate color seats, although I guess it does still work given that the left-winger is on the right and the right-winger is on the left as per the title.

Kevin H.: Y'know, I didn't even think of the seat coloring until you mentioned it! Thanks for pointing it out!

Thanks kindly, Elvert! I was just struck by how similar the men were while noting the contrasting papers they chose to read.
