American artist Cheryl Frances was commissioned by
the Clinton Museum Store to create this a one-of-kind masterpiece
using her favorite materials, vintage silverware and other found silver
pieces
. Featured in this 12-piece set is the White House on a silver tray,

the Oval Office desk with movable objects, and the Clinton Family with
First Pets Socks and Buddy. Interior details of the White House including
paintings on the wall, a fireplace and more. Most unusual and wonderful.
White House length is approximately 14”.

$5,800 - Please call the Museum Store at 501-748-0400 if interested. http://www.clintonmuseumstore.com/whitehouse.htm

My guess: Hillary did it with the Law Records in the Closet?

or maybe: Bill did it with the Cigar in the Sinkroom?

It scares me that there is someone out there who might actually purchase this.

"Underlying the humor of each piece is a feminist sensibility that drives me to use traditionally female kitchen implements, oftentimes along with doll parts and other playthings, to explore gender roles in our society"

Oh brother. (eye roll)

Another example of Clinton tackyness. You kind of expect it from Bubba, but the world's smartest woman and ivy league graduate adds her own particular decadence. The Clintons remind me of trashy characters from a John Waters flick like Pink Flamingos.

Luckily, the likely buyers are race pimps who need the money for "personal expenses" or crack addicts.

>>>...oftentimes along with doll parts and other playthings, to explore gender roles in our society. By recombining elements associated with femininity and domesticity in a playful fashion, I hope to release these roles from their proscribed expectations.

Just lots of words to say she had an angry childhood and is insecure with her self worth.

Memories are made of this.....the incredible jam-packed Freeper inauguration (GWB first term) bash in DC......

THE FR "COUNT THE SILVERWARE BALL"

Wore my silver gown and danced out both my silver shoes gettin' rid of those Clinton/Gore Blues.

A FABULOUS night to remember forever for those freepers present. I still have the music/action-packed tape to prove it!

That is just butt ugly!

But, with that much labor and silver materials, for $5800, she must have been using free materials!
