. . . wonder what OBAMA-OBSESSED STAR-STRUCK – JONATHAN HOROWITZ – thinks of BARACK OBAMA, now – that his president-elect hero – has appointed EVANGELICAL PREACHER – ‘REVEREND’ RICK WARREN – to deliver the invocation address at Barack’s upcoming inauguration ? !!
\ncolor me – used<\/em> !!! <\/p>\n

at least JONATHAN HOROWITZ, longtime ‘domestic’ partner of ROB PRUITT – can take solace in the fact – that he didn’t do anything quite as original, or potent – as SHEPARD FAIREY’S – iconic OBAMA portrait – that went around the world and back again !! and I bet SHEPARD FAIREY is pissed off, too.
\nHe didn’t make a folk hero out of this guy – just for his skin color – did he?<\/p>\n

BARACK OBAMA, in putting the slimey ‘REVEREND’ RICK WARREN who: 1. supports the outlawing of abortion in all<\/em> cases !! and, 2. is a “stanch gay rights opponent” !! – in the spotlight at his presidential inauguration – before the entire world – !! – as the spokesman and symbol of America’s religious and spiritual leadership – has taken one very hard and dismissive slap at all of the free forward thinking people who fueled the grass roots engine of his campaign. I bet REVEREND WRIGHT, is saying I told you so: a black panther – can<\/em> change his spots !! this ‘new’ regime – feels so sold-out already. SAMO \/ same old same old.<\/p>\n

I winder what Sto, over at CINDERS, thinks of his<\/em> black panther, now? <\/p>\n

\nspeak of the devil – !! – we actually caught JONATHAN HOROWITZ by the weirdest co-incidence, when we happened to stroll over to catch the last few days of Rob Pruitt’s installation !!
\nHe was probably there to discuss his up-coming show – the next one up – at GBE – “OBAMA ’08” !!<\/p>\n
