Sarah Palin Sculpture To Roast A Pig At Bridgeport Arts Complex
CHICAGO (CBS) Democratic politics are responsible for the colorful history of the Bridgeport neighborhood, but on Friday afternoon, a prominent Republican politician will be in the spotlight.
Visitors on Friday to the Bridgeport Art Center, 1200 W. 35th St., will be greeted by a giant metal sculpture of Sarah Palins head, and the wide open mouth on the sculpture isnt just intended to suggest Palins expression at her most indignant.
The sculpture, called Were Havin a Tea Pear-ody, doubles as a working stove, and at 5 p.m. Friday, it will cook a whole suckling pig, which will be roasted right in the mouth. The smoke from the roasting process will billow from the sculptures head, which is adorned with hair ratted up in a high bun just like the real Palin...
The artist, J. Taylor Wallace of the Ukrainian Village neighborhood, unveiled his Palin sculpture last year at the National Ornamental Museum in Memphis. The sculpture also cooked a pear-stuffed suckling pig for that occasion.

No, it's not satire. Anytime spent in that alternative reality shows they believe it.

Truthers suck. And yes, climate change is indeed influencing trends, no doubt.
