Hey, remember when liberals defended 'Piss Christ'?

Obama: "we reject the denigration of any religion – including Islam" Liar. What about taxpayer funded Piss Christ?

So… Anti-Muslim filmmaker gets condemned by US Govt. "piss Christ" artist gets an NEA grant. Do I have that about right?

Where are all the "piss Christ" liberals now that the entire US govt is condemning an anti-religious You Tube clip?

Relatedly, Tim Blair points out an interesting contrast:

Here’s the New York Times in 1999 defending the display of Piss Christ:

A museum is obliged to challenge the public as well as to placate it, or else the museum becomes a chamber of attractive ghosts, an institution completely disconnected from art in our time.

And here’s the New York Times last week condemning the anti-Muslim film, “Innocence of Muslims”:

Whoever made the film did true damage to the interests of the United States and its core principle of respecting all faiths.
