Yeah, that pic above is GW's favorite painting...first and foremost, he's got bad taste.
But apparently there's more than just a banal taste for art hidden in this image. It seems this picture was taken to different analysts to peer into the president's psychology.
Whats the best part?
Bush feels this painting represents America's push forward, our ability to lead through the "rough trails."
What does it actually depict?
A dude stealing a horse.

I think this was on crooks and liars or something a while ago, I know I've seen it somewhere. But yeah, totally appropriate. *sigh*

there's a pic of him showing it off at the above link.
I love what a great metaphor the image makes. The thief in the painting, representing capital G, stealing a form of transportation, representing oil, while being chased by the horses owners, can we say insurgents upset at being invaded? All the while he's running away from the mess he left behind him with his stolen goods. Oh irony, how i love thee.
I kind of like the painting though I doubt I would ever call it my favorite. haha. just playing devils advocate. Is this in the white house?
