Our Taxdollars At Work For The Smithsonian Museum Christmas Exhibit

[TAB]

If Rockwell "offends" folks, they are how many decimel points "behind" the zero? .00001%? The Smithsonian is a public funded warehouse of artifacts, and historical items. Let the universities display and "stimulate" debate.

Ask this critic if he can find an artist with the balls to do the same with a statue of Allah? I didn't know ants on Jesus was related to AIDS? It's such a clear correlation....

The big point FQ, is Not On Our Dime. There are plenty of private exhibit venues for this crap.

you get me a statue of allah, and I'll make some art for you...


good art will do one or more of the following:
convey a emotion
make you think
"transport" you another place/time.
envoke emotion/memorys

It does not matter what the art is,it could be music, visual, tactile...you name it.

Agreed with 90% of the above. As far as offending Allah, how about a Salman Rusddie, Van Gogh, Danish Cartoonist retrospective on International Women's Day? I'm all in favor of sticking it in their eye. The security bill might be a bit high, but its money well spent. Ants on a cartoon of Muhammed anyone? "Saudi Girls Gone Wild"? What's good for the goose is good for the gander and F them if they can't take a joke.
