Bush Porn Pic Sparks Outrage

It's definitely an improvement, isn't it?
Without sounding like I'm picking on an entire nation, I find the reaction to the news that this is outrage over this story that some artist has created a picture of George W Bush out of bits he's cut out of porn magazines completely ridiculous.
I REALLY do not see what is wrong with this nor do I see why people are getting so flumoxed over the bloody thing. It's a picture. That's all it is. That's all the artist intended it to be, presumably. You draw attention to it by bitching and moaning about it.
The fact is that it isn't really that great a piece of art but as soon as it's about Bush then it's carte blanche for all manner of whining cretins to come out of the woodwork and start wielding bans of its mention left, right and centre. Yeah, well, up yours.
The fact that it's made up of segments of pornography magazines seems to have made little or no impact on these people who complain. This isn't an anti-war statement - it's to do with free speech.
The fact is that Bush has gone on such a rampage of trying to 'clean up' America that it will be ponography that gets it in the neck next, just you watch. And I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Jenna Jameson jump on the bandwagon.
Oh, there's that name again. I know, I can't help myself!
