One of the funniest things I've read in a long time....

Just Sayin’

Mr. Beck — I can perfectly understand your goal to be perceived as pissing off liberals — it’s a good living in your position. However, your latest submission must be rejected, because the only people who are, er, pissed off about “Piss Christ” at this late date are conservative pundits who have reached a Grade A, or “Roger Kimball,” level of laziness. Liberals have never cared about this long-dead fake controversy, so the tit for tat doesn’t really work. (I’ll grant, though, that if the beer that was meant to stand in for your urine is Coors Light, that will probably be as close to wit as you’ll ever get, and it would actually be a greater indignity to the Obama figure than actual piss.) Better luck next time!

It's still lame, but at least I get the context for what he did...I guess.
