I wonder what Mr. Obama had to say about works of “art” like “Piss Christ” and the “painting” of the Virgin Mary made from excrement...

My guess is he did not have any “questions about the judgment” of producing those.

Those were free speech donchaknow.

Have to be protected at all costs. ACLU will jump right in if you want to display "art" like that and anyone raises so much as a peep in protest.

It'll be interesting to see how the ACLU reacts to this one. Yes, I know the 'A' stands for "American." They'll probably wrap themselves in our flag if anyone asks them. Which won't happen.

But they have to be readying their contingency plans for when a Charlie Hebdo happens here.

My bet: they define mass murder as "a form of speech or political expression" and side with the shooters

The objection to those anti-Christian paintings or “artworks” in New York was not that the artists had no right to do them, but that they were being exhibited in spaces or at exhibitions paid for with public funds.
