(If you're thinking what you're thinking is just a joke; you might be horrified to know that any play on words in the original title is intentional.)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE- New York, NY- July, 26 2006—- A presidential bust of Hillary Clinton is set to be unveiled at the Museum of Sex on August 9, 2006 at 10 am. Accentuating her sexual power and bolstered by the presidential seal, The Presidential Bust of Hillary Rodham Clinton: The First Woman President of the United States of America will be officially open for public viewing on August 9 for a limited six week run.
Artist Daniel Edwards describes this new sculpture as capturing Clinton “with her head held high, a youthful spirit and a face matured by wisdom. Presented in a low cut gown, her cleavage is on display prominently portraying sexual power which some people still consider too threatening.”...
Artist Daniel Edwards describes this new sculpture as capturing Clinton “with her head held high, a youthful spirit and a face matured by wisdom. Presented in a low cut gown, her cleavage is on display prominently portraying sexual power which some people still consider too threatening.”...
...Edwards’ inspiration for the piece was derived from actress Sharon Stone’s controversial quote earlier in the year about challenges that would most likely be encountered should the Junior Senator from New York run on the ’08 ticket. “I think Hillary Clinton is fantastic,” Stone said. “But I think it is too soon for her to run. This may sound odd but a woman should be past her sexuality when she runs. Hillary still has sexual power and I don’t think people will accept that. It’s too threatening.”
“Displaying a sculpture to encourage discourse about the sexual power debate surrounding the possibility of a Hillary Clinton presidency is very much in line with our mission as a museum,” noted Daniel Gluck, Executive Director. “We are wholly dedicated to the exploration of the history, evolution and cultural significance of human sexuality. Historically, leaders are often expected to possess an exceptional amount of virility or fertility with displays of that sexual power often tied to their success. The artist’s portrayal of Hillary Clinton as a president who also happens to be a sexual being conveys the message that a woman need not squelch her sexuality in order to succeed as leader of the free world.”
Taking a moment to purchase Pepto-Bismol stock, first?
(Thanks, Mr. S!)
Yeah, but as unattractive as she is, Hillary doesn't look that bad, and probably won't even when she's in her eighties. There are caricatures of her done by conservatives that are prettier.
Rush always searches the "DANGUS" keyword ;^D JKOC
It is not what she has in her gown that I find too threatening. It is the muck she carries around between her ears.
That said, what human being would find this statue sexual in any way? She looks like Grandma Walton for God's sake, and even in the days when my testosterone was pumping a lot harder than it does today, I never wanted to cozy up to her by a warm fire.
sorry :0)
If Hillary had commissioned it, the bust would have been buried and the sculptor would have had a tragic accident.
LOL! We've been visually violated, LOLOL!
Now THAT's junky industrial waste puke!!!
Carry on.
someone should do a parody of toby keith's hit "i love this bar" about freerepublic.com and call it
"I Love This Board"
of course, pronounce 'board' as 'bard'
It's my kinda place.
Great post!
"Someone at NR noted she looked like Jimmy Carter. I agree."
Yeah, around the lips.
This is truely an ugly woman, both inside and out.
Very true.
The very word "Hillary" means "Barf Alert." Duh!
What's Ashcroft got to do with it? You turning me in for WMD?
(OK, pretend its 2002 for that joke to work.)
"He's history's greatest monster!"
More observations:
The bags under her eyes and facial lines, while accurate, will anger Shrillery.
The boobs are placed much too perky for somebody her age. Trust me.
Well...there went my sex drive.
