That is disgusting...

And instead of doing the usual "'freedom of expression" speech the artist should have defended his work by telling us what he's trying to say through his art.

Personally that episode was good. Not exactly that disgusting.

@Luciene: Maybe the reason wasn't that good....

He's dead, which usually makes it a bit hard to do that.
"The wooden sculpture by the late German artist Martin Kippenberger"
"Museum officials in the northern bi-lingual Alto Adige region near the Austrian border said the artist, who died in 1997, considered it a self-portrait illustrating human angst"

Blasphemy makes me lol

Personally, I'm a bit speechless about that article...

More weird news:

Diapers saved a life

Someone trying to cut off his own arm in a restaurant

I hate when people keep thanking God. I mean, yes He's the great Creator, and I suppose I could say the Forgiver, but really...

And Fuzzy, perhaps just News as the title would be more appropriate...just something to think about?

Palin, anyone?

No thanks. Her own mother admits the only thing she brings to the ticket is being female.

Meh, she seems alright. It would bug me though if I knew I was chosen only because of gender. What sucks is it makes people even more focused on colour and gender than, you know, something as outlandish as the ACTUAL ISSUES.

*sigh*

And, if you want a news thread, go and make one, this'll stay weird. :D

Nah. I`m cool.

Cindy McCain said that Palin supposedly has more experience than Obama, as Palin was at first in a PTA council, she became something else later, and then became a mayor, and became a governor after that.

I'm certainly glad Arnold Schwarzenegger didn't get selected to be McCain's running mate, at least.

Fuzzy: she was absolutely, wholly selected because she's a woman in an attempt to pander to Hillary Clinton voters. Unfortunately for the Republicans, it's not going to work. According to the polls most Hillary voters are in fact too smart to fall for that one, especially as Palin has rather extreme views on abortion: only if the mother's life is in severe danger. She said if her daughter got raped, she wouldn't allow her an abortion. ...

Hogwarts: Cindy McCain also said that Palin has foreign policy experience because "Alaska is close to Russia."


What's sad is that McCain has a fair chance of winning no matter how much idiocy he partakes in..

Sentynel, here's a guy that agrees with your McCain bashing

The chairman.

I love the joke about McCain's brain.

Pointing out McCain's many obvious flaws is a part we all must play to secure the future of, well, the world. If McCain gets elected, we are going to have problems.

Not allowed to watch the video. Canadians only presumably.

I would join in this discussion, but I know little of American politics. I did, however, strongly want Hillary to lose for the sole reason that she is a video game hating ****.

Also, a vote for John McCain is a vote for the Cylons!

LOL WUT

:D Nice.

Kinda like the, "Communism only killed 100 million people. Let's give it another chance!" T-Shirt.

Also, I find little wrong with Governor Palin being chosen as a running mate by Senator McCain. She seems like a good choice for that particular party, and she seems pretty well accepted. And it's also seems unfair to assume McCain chose her only because she was a woman, seeing as Senator Obama chose a pro-life Catholic for his running mate...

Che Guevara is one of the many people whose ideologies I agree with whose methodologies I disagree with.


Oh, and Palin is also a lying self-contradictory muppet.
