Life Imitating Art?
« on: April 13, 2014, 12:59:09 PM »
Why do Jay Carney and Claire Shipman decorate their house with Soviet propaganda posters?

Quote
The moral blindness of the American Ruling Class is on display.  The Washingtonian Magazine, a glossy lifestyle and politics rag, has published a fawning profile of D.C. power couple Jay Carney and Claire Shipman that was a bit more revealing than intended.  At the top of the piece was a photo of mom Claire with her son and daughter, flipping a fried egg in their beautiful kitchen/great room.

Who knows, some people collect unusual items.    I have a poster of Patty Hurst in combat gear in front of the SLA poster of their symbol rolled up somewhere in my back room, also a poster from the 70's for black power.  Just a piece of history that cost less then a dollar and is an impulse buy if cheap enough.
