Anyone want to buy some art?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Obama-in-Pee...item337e26edb5
There is an article on HuffPo about this as well.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...n_2203697.html
This stunt was done after Glenn Beck found a painting of President Obama crucified. He said he found the painting distasteful, but felt he had to support the artist's right to expression. Apparently he had a show all about art... or the crap that is called art, some tie with the Communist Party and crappy art, and so on.
What is your take on this?
PS - it is beer, not pee.

Shock jock doing what they're good at. I'm slightly surprised he's back to this crap after converting but that was probably a stunt, too.

This Philistine garbage is not art. There is no trancedence or even catharsis in this work.
It is fit for the scrap heap, and nothing more.

How did the left "play right into Beck's hand"?
