Imitation is the sincerest form of d'oh...

Too little. Too late. Too derivative: Hillary Clinton Artist Print 2- $ 40.

Copycat "Artist Tony Puryear" doesn't even try to create original bullshit: "Senator Clinton is a beautiful, strong and inspiring woman, and I wanted to make a poster that reflected that. Rather than putting a slogan on the poster, I chose to put her name, because she is surely the only leader at this level with whom we are all on a first-name basis, and to me, that reflects her personal warmth and connection with ordinary Americans."

Oh, shut up Tony, you ignorant slut.


UPDATE: Morgan @ House of Eratosthenes takes Puryear's "work" to the next level:

From the link: "Union printed in USA using 100% wind power and vegetable-based inks."

Does this mean they shut down when the wind doesn't blow?

This is a new twist: a "cult of no personality."

So now we burn food for fuel and use food to make ink. Starving africans applaud.

I like to call her Mrs. Bill Clinton; it annoys so many people.

Ugh...... there should have been a warning posted before the picture could be viewed. Some of us read while eating our lunch.

My thoughts exactly.

And Hillary's too, it must be said.

If you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao
you ain't gonna make it with anyone, anyhow.

Shouldn't Mrs. Bubba be posed facing leftward?

A truly frightening poster. Donna Reed, on meth, on a lunatic crusade. Janet Reno with bleach and a facelift. Madonna in 25 years.

This problem won't go away soon, that's for sure. Regardless where the chips are on the morning of November 5, the Clintons' limitless sense of entitlement and Liberesse Oblige will not fail.

We will never see the end of "HILLARY". She is the poetic justice for everything we did in the 60's.

Is there any reason that the background is the same rising sun on the WWII Japanese Battle Flag. Bushido code perhaps? Kamikaze? Hummm....

How can this woman be called beautiful? How can she be called smart? It only shows that people will say anything and see what they want to see.
