| ‘Piss Christ’ Returns to New York This Week–Where’s the Outrage? Posted: 21 Sep 2012 07:43 PM PDT According to a report from Twitchy earlier today, it seems the 1987 photograph done by the taxpayer funded artist and photographer Andres Serrano returned to New York Thursday. The photo, which portrays a crucifix soaking in the artist’s urine, will be showcased at the Edward Tyler Nahem Gallery. Question is, where’s the outrage? President Obama, Secretary of State and former First Lady Hillary Clinton have spent the last week explaining to the rest of the world how shameful it is that an American citizen would dare to publish a Youtube video poking fun at Muslims. (even going so far as to spend tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars airing apology ads in Pakistan) Yet, calls for the administration to denounce Serrano’s disgusting attempt at making fun of Christianity has been met with complete silence from the administration. Fox News reporter Todd Starnes, in an article entitled “WH Silent Over Demands to Denounce ‘Piss Christ’ Artwork”, wrote about questions being raised on Capitol Hill regarding this blantant, outrageous double standard.
It’s one thing to support free speech, but this should raise serious concerns about what taxpayers are forced to pay for. The exhibit, funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, is about as far from “a project that exhibits artistic excellence” as a project could get. Furthermore, we have witnessed–this week–one of the most outrageous examples of hypocrisy in recent history. Outraged? You should be. Please consider contacting your Senator, your Congressional Representative, and the President as soon as possible. Let them know how you feel, and do not let up. Enough is enough. If we don’t speak up now, what’s it going to take? How far will we allow this administration to push before we say ‘enough is enough’?  |
| The Delivery Presents – A Huge Announcement, then a @KurtSchlichter and @AmeliaHammy Bookfest! Posted: 21 Sep 2012 12:14 PM PDT
The show will start a bit before 7:30 PM EDT with the customary pre-show warm-up and music-fest then we’ll jump into things with both feet and an appropriately celebratory “yahoo”! Block off the evening, invite a few friends over, jump into the chatroom and celebrate with me! Three years is positively ancient in podcasting years but I’ve only just gotten my feet underneath me. This is going to be fun. Now, for this week’s show. Here are the things you need to know. Amelia Hamilton is a wickedly talented author whose books you should get for any young ‘uns you know. Her Kickstarter is here and it deserves much patronage. There are not nearly enough good books for children on the wonders of America and the uniqueness of her history. She is filling a need. She is also lovely (as you can see from this week’s show art) and one of the purely sweetest people I’ve ever met. You’ll love her, trust me. Kurt Schlichter came back for the second week in a row and brought buckets of caring for everyone to share. There is a reason his book, I Am a Liberal: A Conservative’s Guide to Dealing With Nature’s Most Irritating Mistake  |
| Latest Desperate Fundraising Effort: Have a Yard Sale for Obama Posted: 21 Sep 2012 10:44 AM PDT Earlier this year, the Obama campaign, in an effort to get creative with its fundraising, began asking supporters who were about to celebrate a birthday, an anniversary, or those who were about to tie the knot, to consider enrolling in the Obama Event Registry. "Instead of another gift card you'll forget to use, ask your friends and family for something that will go a little further: a donation to Obama for America," the registry site boasts. "Register your next celebration—whether it's a birthday, bar or bat mitzvah, wedding, or anniversary—with the Obama campaign. It's a great way to show your support for a cause that's important to you on your big day." Because, in an economy such as this one, people often forget to use gift cards, and you don't need those new towels or that massage anyway! If this didn't seem desperate enough, the newest ploy by the Obama campaign is really more unbelievable. They are asking that supporters gather their unwanted waffle irons and other such junk, advertise in the community, hold a yard sale and donate proceeds to the president's campaign. "What's the one thing you'd sell to get our president re-elected?," the Yard Sale for Obama website asks. "Can't decide? Sell them both." Still don't believe me? Watch this Youtube commercial. (or watch below) It's for real, folks, desperate as it sounds. The video begins by telling us that "control of the country is being snatched up by a small handful of powerful companies and wealthy Republicans." Perhaps someone needs to remind the President that, in fact, Democrats have been in the majority for the last four years and this mess lies solely at the feet of the Democrat party and the Obama White House. Look, a campaign is free to solicit money however they wish, but this is wildly inappropriate at a time when the vast majority of Americans are struggling more than we have in decades, with record unemployment, and a president who cannot keep his spending under control, whose family frequently takes lavish vacations on the taxpayer's dime. Perhaps President Obama could begin leading by example for a change, stay at home and actually do the job he was elected to do, and—this weekend–hold his own yard sale right on the north lawn of the White House. **This article was originally posted at PolitiChicks.tv where Tami is a contributor.  |

It’s also very funny, unless, of course, you happen to be a dyed in the wool progressive in which case it will pierce your heart. That’s fine too.
