Somebody at the Michael Savage thread says you guys talk a lot about alcohol at this thread, is that why you have picture of a bar?

Hi, sugar.

Courrielche said officials on the hour-long call — including NEA Director of Communications Yosi Sergant and Michael Skolnik, political director for hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons — encouraged the artists on the line to create works of art in their respective fields related to health care, energy and the environment.
“What I heard was a well thought-out pitch to encourage artists to create art on these issues,” Courrielche told FOXNews.com. “We were told we were consulted for a reason, and they specifically stated those issues as the issues we should focus on, to plant the seed. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see what they’re attempting to do.”

Courrielche said the now ubiquitous Obama “Hope” poster by artist Shepard Fairey and musician will.i.am’s “Yes We Can” song and music video were offered as “shining examples” of the artist group’s clear impact on Obama’s landslide election.
The “potential propaganda machine,” Courrielche said, is concerning on many levels.
