I seem to recall suggesting this years ago—along with a Crap Obama. But, hey, I’m not some fancy-schmancy “artist” who gets his funding from the NEA, or something:
UPDATE: E-BAY removes Glenn Beck’s artwork:
Ebay Yanks Beck’s ‘Obama in Pee Pee’ Art Project Meant to Raise Money for Charity
The Blaze
The popular online auction site eBay has yanked a piece of artwork done by Glenn Beck citing its belief that the project featured an Obama figurine floating in actual urine (it was not, however).
[…]
Beck was auctioning the jar, complete with the Obama doll, on the auction site, with all the proceeds set to go to Beck’s Mercury One charity. At the last entry its bid was up to $11,300. On Wednesday morning, however, eBay removed the auction page.
Below is the letter eBay sent to Beck’s charity eBay page:
