Howard Kurtz: Only Glenn Beck Could Possibly Be So Brazen As To Put A Religious Figure in A Vat of Urine

The backstory you probably know already -- Glenn Beck took an Obama bobblehead and stuck it in a mason jar of urine (or a liquid colored to look like urine), as a multiple-pronged parody, to skewer 1, liberals' embrace of "Piss Christ" artist Andre Serrano, 2, many liberals' embrace of Obama as an actual Christ and "lord and savior," and 3, the inevitable hypocrisy which would ensue when liberals began denouncing the Glenn Beck Piss Obama after having defended Andre Serrano's Piss Christ.

Glenn Beck seems to have given the targets of his parody too much credit, though. They don't even realize the Piss Obama piece is a parody of an earlier one.

Howard Kurtz, who once claimed that Anthony Weiner's dick-pic was plainly the result of a "hack," turns out to just be a generally-stupid person:

Ah, how we've missed Glenn Beck and his elevated discourse. Who else would put an Obama doll in a jar of (fake) urine?

Examine the facts. We lost hispanic vote in a big way. Immediately everyone is pro amnesty until we understand that immigration had NOTHING to do with how they voted.
Same thing with the "FSA". We FUCKING OWN MISSISSIPPI, ALABAMA, ARKANSAS.
Those states have very high black populations and a shit ton of poverty across the board.
40% of welfare IS IN ONE FUCKING STATE, CALIFORNIA.

Serrano is also famous for his pictures of his jizz. They're the covers of two Metallica records. The "Load" ones. LOL!!!

But mocking that wouldn't work, either. Serrano makes Art, and the kind of libs who get to be Thought Leaders are unfamiliar with such stuff. They just watch TV and stare at Facebook all day. They know Artists are Better People Than You, but they have little idea what any artists actually do. Because it's not on TV.

Oh--also, there's already an internet-joke genre of short videos of dudes blowing loads on pictures of celebrities (and whoever else they think it'd be funny to blow a load on). There has to be at least one starring HOPE Obama already. I'm not a fan of the genre, so I don't know where to find that, but I'm sure it's out there.

And maybe it should have some flames added to it and be put up on the blog here, on some special occasion.

i know he didn't actually watch the video, he heard from somewhere Beck did it, but lacking curiosity assumed something else.

82 How about a mixed media sculpture of Obama having sex with a bull? Call it "The Cretin Bull" (to see if any of the unemployed Classics majors waiting to get their check from Uncle Sugar catch the reference -- and yes, the spelling is deliberate).

When questioned about what it means, say, "Pasiphae was cursed by Aphrodite to fall in love and copulate with a beautiful white bull, in retaliation for her husband's decision to sacrifice a lesser bull to the god Poseidon. The resultant offspring was the monstrous Minotaur, which consumed young men and young women at the heart of its labyrinth.

"Obama has fallen in love with Wall Street, and copulates with them frequently, to the point that he has many ex-Wall Street movers and shakers in his cabinet and advisory positions. The resultant offspring is a monstrous unemployment rate, incessant class warfare, bleak economic forecasts, and overall suffering throughout the country, all of which consumes the futures of our children, our grandchildren, our great-grandchildren, on and on into perpetuity.

"This sculpture is a literal interpretation of Obama bedding Wall Street and cursing our children to a future of horror, hopelessness, and death."

Sit back and absorb the accolades.

Beck knows how to push the leftard's buttons and he does it well

And the urine wasn't real because of an E-bay rule that prohibits the sale of an item that includes urine or feces.

It didn't stop them from pulling the auction, however.

Very true! But you could counter with, "This sculpture is a reimagining of that allegory. Note that the part of Pasiphae is being played by Barack Obama, arguably the most powerful man in the world, yet he is overcome and emasculated by the Wall Street bull, which symbolizes money and power and influence. It illustrates how even the most powerful among us, regardless of gender or status, are nothing but slaves subjugated by our own lusts."

Just feed them any kind of bullshit that sounds like something you'd hear in a hipster coffee shop. They'll lap it up like $7 Starbucks coffee.

Although most profs in the field of Classics are as reliably Democrat as the average academic, they tend to be pretty conservative in their interpretation of materials.
I teach both Spanish and Latin and have found that deconstructionist, neo-Marxist, and feminist analysis is quite prevalent in the former discipline but not the latter.

21:23 And the disciple Kurtz noticed this prophecy as true when he saw the bobblehead image Obama, his Lord and Savior, in what appeared to be urine and fell crying at Obama's golf shoes, washing them with his tears.

21:24 And Kurtz said, "Lord Obama most merciful and just, I want only to insert my head up your ass far enough to get just a glimpse of the socialist utopia you have for us."

21:25 And Kurtz inserted his head and the uppermost parts of his being up Obama's holy squeaker and it was revealed unto him Obama's vision for America.
