re: #10 lawhawk

So, just because Andy Warhol decided to make pop art out of the leader of one of the most heinous regimes in history (whose body count is probably above 70 million), and some community group thinks it okay to use the Warhol pop-art as a Christmas ornament, it’s okay?

I think it speaks to Warhol’s warped sensibilities to turn Mao into “art”, followed by the idiocy of the community group that thought including Mao on their ornament was a good idea (even if it was Warhol’s print).

Agreed.

But it’s long shot to assume that Obama himself examined over 800 ornaments, no?

It was a staff project I gather. And a mistake.
