Yesssssssssss!

You've GOT to be kidding! Seriously....here's their ENTIRE entry for "Art":

"Art is a term used to describe objects or ideas that are creative in origin or design. It is typically defined as the conscious production or arrangement of sounds, colors, forms, movements, or other elements in a manner that affects the sense of beauty, specifically the production of the beautiful in a graphic or plastic medium.[1]"

"The arts is a term broader than "art", which usually means the visual arts (fine art and decorative art). The arts encompasses visual arts, performing arts (Music and dance), language arts (Literature) and culinary arts. The major general surveys on topics in the fine arts are painting, sculpture, drawing, photography and architecture."

"Liberalism and art"

"Liberals use art to express their political views, hoping to gain extra protection for their political speech by claiming that it is not really political but merely "artistic expression". This has been used to defend hate speech in the case of an art exhibit in the 1980s which invited museum goers to step on an American Flag and then record their opinions in a journal."


On the upside, it's almost impossible for anyone who is NOT already drinking conservative kool-aid to look at this sight and not be overcome with laughter. It's such an obvious attempt at academic legitimacy that fails completely. Am actually thinking about adding this to my "fake" website lesson plan....used to teach kids critical thinking skills when accessing information. What's real, what's not???

I would wear this!

This one was easy for me :)

Even better!


Love this!!

Douglas Adams' "rules that describe our reactions to technologies":

1. Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that's invented between when you're 15 and 35 is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you're 35 is against the natural order of things.

Can't say I'm surprised!

This is wonderful common sense. But I was a little troubled that the tag applied was "liberal politics." What? Compassion and civility aren't part of conservative politics? Oh....yeah....I forgot for a moment.
