Fear of Art

By Sniffles

Perhaps emboldened by his fellow Republican Governors' assaults on labor, the teabaggy Governor of Maine has decided that a Judy Taylor mural has to go.

The mural, on display at the state's department of labor, is too pro-union, Mr. Teabag says. (We cats refuse to give him the dignity of naming him, because he's an idiot.)

Above are three panels from the 11-panel piece. But already you can see how subversive it is. For a complete look, click here.

You know what? It is un-American to attack working men and women. It is cowardly and stupid to go after a commissioned work of art. But it's particularly disgusting 1) on the eve of the Triangle Shirtwaist anniversary and 2) after brave nuclear plant workers in Japan have been hospitalized for risking their lives on the job.

We cats HISS.
