#1 Image here. Note: gay news site. NSFW. Or anywhere else, really.

A gay artistâs entry that depicts President Bush in a compromising position has prompted a complaint to a county official and sparked a debate over art censorship.

What makes the flap even more interesting is that the individual who made the complaint is another artist who has his own controversial piece in the show. That piece depicts the pope as having ties to Nazi Germany.

Sigh.

#2 It's the art world, folks. Remember the red head boob in the clown suit the other day? That's the mentality. "Aren't we outlandish and wonderful! Kiss-kiss!" I mean, who the hell else would make the effort to see this piece of shit?

#3 Art? Fine...I guess you can stretch the word enough. Publicly subsidized? NFW!

#6 I was disappointed that Broward County was the municipality invovled. The title made me think that PBS had finally found a talent to replace Bill Moyers.
