Senator Hillary Clinton’s Presidential Bust To Be Unveiled at the Museum of Sex

(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.”

Fredrick's of Hollywood ad? And this: "The First Woman President of the United States of America will be officially open for public viewing...." that is over the top! As usual there is nothing real about Hillary - this bust (If bust is singular, shouldn't two be 'busts')shows 'herself' with a long neck which she does not have and she was never, ever that thin. Hillary is not a lingerie model nor is she a Lorelei – if one was ever in doubt. This artist couldn’t be straight…………..

First Woman to totally disgrace her office and country – maybe they will hang the blue dress and Bill’s shorts next to the bust at this Sex Museum.

"If Hillary had commissioned it, the bust would have been buried and the sculptor would have had a tragic accident."

Both of which would occur in a public park.

I didn't remember this and thought you were kidding, but . . .

I couldn't believe Chris made that joke - I guess it was Chris - about that Peruvian mummy. [Laughter] But I want you to know that Hillary went to welcome that mummy to the National Geographic building yesterday, she and President Fujimori of Peru. And then he came over to see me and he kind of hurt my feelings that I didn't get to go. He brought me two pictures of that mummy. I don't know if you've seen that mummy. [Laughter] But, you know, if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out. [Laughter] That's a good-looking mummy. That mummy looks better than I do on my worst days. I'm telling you. You need to go see her. [Laughter] If there was ever an argument against ageism, it's that mummy. I mean, really. You need to go see her. [Laughter] Let me say - I can't believe - I'll hear about that before it's over, but anyway. [Laughter] It's been a long day.

>> Huh? For a limited SEX week run? <<

Well, they're optimistic that the Republicans will have enough votes for an impeachment by the start of March.
