      From Michelle Malkin’s site:

      A left-wing photographer, Jill Greenberg, deliberately makes toddlers cry and turns the pictures into a Los Angeles art exhibit called “End Times” to indulge her Bush Derangement Syndrome. She slaps titles like “Grand Old Party,” “Four More Years,” and “Apocalypse Now” onto photos of the poor children she manipulated and goaded.

      Here is Jill Greenberg in her own words:

      When photographer Jill Greenberg decided to take a lollipop away from a small child, she had a broader purpose in mind.

      “The first little boy I shot, Liam, suddenly became hysterically upset,” the Los Angeles-based photographer said. “It reminded me of helplessness and anger I feel about our current political and social situation.”

      As the 27 two- and three-year-olds featured in her exhibition, End Times, cried and screamed, demanding the return of the lollipop given to them just moments before, Greenberg snapped away.

      Incredible, Greenberg seems to think there is nothing wrong with this. A “higher purpose” is being served.

      Four things come to mind:

      (1) Greenberg seems to be on the same emotional and intellectual level as her “volunteers”. One of them, by the way, was her own daughter.

      (2) Not only is this cruel, it is unbelievably small and petty. Does Greenberg really think tormenting a toddler will make voters embrace her political positions?

      3. What’s next? Does Greenberg (or some other leftwing “artist”) film the rape of a toddler and justify it by saying, “This is what Bush has been doing to the country for the past six years.”? Does she lift a page from the Nazi playbook and toss babies into furnaces or use them for rifle target practice?

      4. Does BDS (Bush Derangement Syndrome) have a limit? Or will things only get worse?

      Geezz, MD, where do you find these buttheads? I’m sure she’ll be honored at the Democratic National Convention if she lasts that long!

      *benning lobs a cold,thick, sticky ball of this morning’s oatmeal onto Kevin’s head!*:-j

      Heheheeee!=))

      Despite the heat out there – it’s Summer, O’ Faint-of-Heart! – there’s also evidence that what is happening is not a case of “Global Warming”. Instead it would seem that there’s an elevated amount of seismic, geologic activity happening around the owrld. And that includes beneath the waves. As in under the Arctic Ocean!

    6. Mwalimu Daudi says:

      It’s Michelle Malkin’s fault. I don’t finds ‘em, benning, I just reads about ‘em on her blog!

      Seriously, is it just me or does this lady have seriously-shortened horizons? Terrorists slaughter innocent people with bombs, dictators build WMDs and gulags and use both liberally, Democrats plot illegal impeachments and dream dreams of welfare state fascism. At least these bozos are thinking big.

      But with Greenberg – tormenting a toddler by taking away candy seems to be the limit of her puny ambitions. She combines it with a horrorific case of being politically tone-deaf. Can’t she see how bad this looks to even Bush-haters?

    7. Mwalimu Daudi says:

      The word “lady” in my last post refers to Jill Greenberg, not Michelle Malkin. Michelle (like ST and my wife) is a lady, whereas Greenberg is a “lady”. Let no one say that I questioned Greenberg’s “ladyism”.:d

      - Bang retaliates by snapping a laytex glove at bennings butt, and then pouring some of his ice tea down Lorica’s T-shirt….”This situation is just like what happened when Germany bombed Pearl Harbor!…” (J. Beloshi in Animal House)

      - Bang **==

    9. Mwalimu – I reformatted your post a bit to make it easier to distinguish what you wrote and what Michelle wrote. Thanks for the tip!

      Thanks, ST – I am still in the Stone Age when it comes to HTML!
