Classy stuff... I hope they finish the theme more realistically and show "Jody" applying for her NEA grant.

Beyond crude, rude, tasteless, offensive and downright mean.  If I were Barbara Bush, there would be more than one face punched in.  That's the only response that can even come a little close to the provocation of these pigs.  Who the hell do you think you are, using this lady in such a disgusting way?

Yup, the conservative's politics are 'repitilian', but they sure as hell loved his money.

The 'nuance' of the left...UGH.

Collins: "Not on my dollar.'

This comment, above all others, shows the superior logic of the conservative in this episode. The liberal assumes they simply deserve the money, to hell with producing something of which the DONOR approves. 

Is the purpose of a univeristry really to 'provide a safe haven to explore ideas and expand boundaries'? And, even if so, does that include using public (here private against the wishes of the donor) funds to produce objectionable displays?

I know, I know...the relative newbie lurker done triple posted. Sorry about that, my little droogies.

I'm a well informed follower of politics for the most part.  I can destroy any of my misinformed friends in a debate on liberal vs conservative principles.  Though they just devolve into shrill howler monkies (that's how I know I've won).  I found this site on a link from Drudge and immediately became hooked.  I signed up eagerly awaiting my chance to deposit my two cents.  Now I can't even come up with something to say more often than not.  How do you respond to this kind of pervasive hatred without degrading yourself to their level.  How do you combat this level of hipocrisy?  How do you combat this level of revisionist history.  How do we combat the liberal stranglehold on American education and media.  This garbage that even networks like Showtime now have to make a political statement has caused me to cancel my cable subscription for my childrens sake.  (seriously..I just did it today).  Sorry if this is a little random, I just needed to rant. 

The only thing evil needs to succeed, is for good people to nothing about it.

Yeah, this is real sophisticated art. How old is the out-patient who created this atrocity? How much bile does one have to have inside to produce such things? This is pathological hatred defined.

Since my wife died I have had our tv locked on the cartoon channel for my handicapped son.

Perhaps I was wrong it it was more to protect me.

I cant help it that I have to give notice like AJStrata did to the loss of Debra Orin.

Their are good things in our life and there are some things that are better.

She was one of the best.

Well, all of you here have pointed out almost everything there is to say about this disgusting piece of trash.  And I agree with most everything said here.

But no one has commented about this:

After Collins storms out, Lerner urges Porter to “give him the speech about how the impressionists were met with the same response when they debuted their work in Paris in 1874.”

The same response?  Hardly.  Yet these liberals try to make some sort of moral equivalence argument, yet again. 

Disgusting.

Finally, IMO, the only thing worthwhile about the french was the french impressionist movement.  Anything after that time, not.

“give him the speech about how the impressionists were met with the same response when they debuted their work in Paris in 1874.”

That's right!

I remember reading about that when I saw Claude Monet's famous painting The Abortion on the Grass (L'abortion sur l'herbe).

Liberal's. They're just so darned nuanced and sophisticated.

What is it about abortions and liberals? It is a rite of passage for them?

A "progressive" = a liberal = a socialist = a commie in drag =
laughably wrong about life, the universe and everything.

this is nothing but pure, unadulterated evil. Our civilization is no longer in decline, it is in free-fall. God help us all.

In junior high, I made my sole trip to New York City, taking part along the way in an obligatory visit to the UN.  Amongst their sculptures on the grounds is the famous one that shows a revolver with the barrel tied in a knot.  You can argue about the intentions of the artists if you want, and you may even disagree with the political insinuation, but the piece itself is not objectionable and presents a point of view in a manner that encourages responsible debate and progression of human nature.

Compare that to the abortion sculpture.  It makes me think of the stories regarding how Nazi propaganda, whatever form they used, was so powerful in hate that it caused women to orgasm.  No thought comes from this type of art.  The only rational response is rage, whether you are for or against.  It is akin, in some degree (not equating), to the emotions experienced amongst witnesses to a lynching.  There are people who watch in a state of catatonic jubilation, while others are equally terrified and angry.

The simplest recourse is to terminate your services with Showtime.  I don't subscribe to them anyway because their programming overall is pitiful.  You could take it a step further and go after their parent, CBS.  Remember, the Super Bowl is on CBS this year.  If a boycott was sufficient enough, it would be devastating to their network.  That is not likely, of course.  Wish it could be like Super Bowl I when 2 networks carried it.

You do NOT go after someone's mother. Cancelling Showtime for this. Disgusting.

Just love how the MSM will use gays to prop up their attacks against Pres. Bush. Personally, I've never watched this show and don't wish to. I love how the MSM caters to gays at every opportunity and shamelessly promotes them. Don't these people know that liberals don't give a flying leap about them and that they are just another part of the cultural cesspool that now exists in this country? One of the significant reasons for why our society and culture are stuck in the gutter is because we're constantly bombarded by gay messages of tolerance and it's okay to be gay. Not when gays deep inside know that no one trully accepts them or believes they're right and never will be.
