Crazy Crap Shits and Giggles: Artist Says, 'F@$# the Man,' Literally...

San Francisco artist Justine Lai's brand of political subversion is about mortality, humanization and impassioned acts of coitus with sacred cow presidents. Yes, that's Honest Abe you'll see receiving the fruits of fellatio if you click on this link.
Lai puts oil to canvas in "Join or Die," depicting herself screwing the likes of George Washington and getting a spanking from Ulysses S. Grant...I think. Sometimes it's hard to identify the prez amid a tangle of impassioned limbs. Here she demythologizes the former Commanders in Chief, immortal symbols of, until Lai came along, an impenetrable institution.
So look, and pour down your mortification and consternation on this wild Stanford grad's work of artistic insouciance. I wonder what Lai's little presidential Kama Sutra has in store for Obama?!
