I could swear there's some irony in there somewhere.


From the spittle-flecked lips of Deranged Catholic™ Kathy Shaidle:

"Some call it art. Other call it blasphemy. A new piece of art showing Senator Barack Obama as Jesus Christ is now on display at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago."

My objection to this is that, like 95% of all post-modern art, it is crudely rendered and literal minded, an image illustrating a one-note joke.

And if anyone's an expert on one-note jokes ...

Isn't it funny how art criticism can often tell us more about the critic than about the art itself?

When the critic is a brainless moron, that is, who wouldn't know irony if it came up and bit her in the face.
