Senator Hillary Clinton’s Presidential Bust To Be Unveiled at the Museum of Sex

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE- New York, NY- July, 26 2006—- A presidential bust of Hillary Clinton is set to be unveiled at the Museum of Sex on August 9, 2006 at 10 am. Accentuating her sexual power and bolstered by the presidential seal, The Presidential Bust of Hillary Rodham Clinton: The First Woman President of the United States of America will be officially open for public viewing on August 9 for a limited six week run.

Artist Daniel Edwards describes this new sculpture as capturing Clinton “with her head held high, a youthful spirit and a face matured by wisdom. Presented in a low cut gown, her cleavage is on display prominently portraying sexual power which some people still consider too threatening.”...

...Edwards’ inspiration for the piece was derived from actress Sharon Stone’s controversial quote earlier in the year about challenges that would most likely be encountered should the Junior Senator from New York run on the ’08 ticket. “I think Hillary Clinton is fantastic,” Stone said. “But I think it is too soon for her to run. This may sound odd but a woman should be past her sexuality when she runs. Hillary still has sexual power and I don’t think people will accept that. It’s too threatening.”

“Displaying a sculpture to encourage discourse about the sexual power debate surrounding the possibility of a Hillary Clinton presidency is very much in line with our mission as a museum,” noted Daniel Gluck, Executive Director. “We are wholly dedicated to the exploration of the history, evolution and cultural significance of human sexuality. Historically, leaders are often expected to possess an exceptional amount of virility or fertility with displays of that sexual power often tied to their success. The artist’s portrayal of Hillary Clinton as a president who also happens to be a sexual being conveys the message that a woman need not squelch her sexuality in order to succeed as leader of the free world.”

If that woman is the epitome of sexual power, I'm giving it up.

+1. Hideous? Odious? Appropriate? I dunno.

I dunno, Fig, it's a pretty good likeness, IMO. Sort of a moralizing, holier-than-thou grandmother type with moral high ground on loan from Pol Pot. It's pretty much how I pictured her anyway. Well, her face. I could do without the "exposure" below the neck.

But I do agree with Grampster. The juxtaposition of her and "sexual power" does tend to put one off sex altogether.

Sexual power?

If that's the definition, where can I take an oath of celibacy and check in at a monastery for the remainder of my days?

Rats! I was hoping the phrase "Bust of Hillary Clinton" would be followed by words such as "Whitewater" or "Vince Foster".

And I have an alternate title for that thing:

"The Fevered Dreams of Crackbaby to Suck At the Teat of Socialism"

Is it just me, or was anyone else immediately reminded of a turtle?

no twy... you weren't. Y'all will excuse me now: that image and the concept of "sexuality" has caused my genitals to scream and retreat behind my pelvic bone...

Hunter, is this the Wiccan way of dealing with it? In the Catholic Church, we have easier ways . . . Cheesy

Are you absolutely sure that's the right link? It looks to me like it's a sculpture of Jimmy Carter in drag.

been to museum of sex in Amsterdam, I think it would fit in the bestiality section

no Preacherman, that was just the reaction my body had. Still trying to coax things out to their usual position... Wink

Does anyone remember the good old days where 'sexual artists' only subjected us to pictures of people with whips stuck up their butts?

I think I just became permanantly impotent by viewing the picture of that bust.

Strings · « **Reply #16 on:** July 26, 2006, 10:53:13 PM »

brimic... go to the "insulting Islam..." thread, and click the link. The lady in question SHOULD cure the impotency brought on by the subject of THIS thread... Wink

No, we LIKE sexual anything, we're humans. We just don't particularly want to think about Hillary's sexuality.

I don't know...if you removed the part from the clavicle on up it might be quite nice. The face though - not even fair to poor Hillary. Maybe her in twenty years or maybe what she really looks like in person. On t.v. she looks a lot better. I thought at first that that picture was of Jimmy Carter's face photoshopped to a bust of a 30 yr old woman.

Wow, it does look like Jimmy Carter.

It reminds me of an ash covered skeleton dug up after the eruption of Vesuvius.

Needs to be full sized, to show the beauty of Hill's cankles.

I think this thread needs to be locked, Sindawe whipped for starting it, and Dasmi drawn and quartered for linking the freakin' picture.
