Feds: $400,000 For Camel Art. In Pakistan.

Via BuzzFeed: Exclusive: U.S. Taxpayers To Spend $400,000 For A Camel Sculpture In Pakistan
The State Department is planning to spend $400,000 in taxpayer funds to buy a sculpture for the new American embassy being built in Islamabad, Pakistan….
Officials explained the decision to purchase the piece of art, titled “Camel Contemplating Needle,” in a four-page document justifying a “sole source” procurement. “This artist’s product is uniquely qualified,” the document explains. “Public art which will be presented in the new embassy should reflect the values of a predominantly Islamist country,” it says….
(And, as Buzzfeed points out, the average annual income in Pakistan is about $1,250.)

It’d be worth every penny if a certain guy in a bike helmet was riding.
“What Hump?”
“State Department is planning to spend $400,000 in taxpayer funds’
do the “taxpayers” get a deduction from their taxes for this “charitable” contribution?
I bring this up because as every one knows, the government is only 17.5 trillion dollars in acknowledged debt.
First time I’ve seen a white camel. Must be racist.
That statue might get smoked one of these days
Keep pokin’ us you bastards.
Is the statue anatomically correct? Better place some security cams around it or chances are it may get humped.
A week later and it’ll be soaked with muzzie cum.
How much is the embassy being built as target practice for the koranimals? Anyone really think they are going to let that stand? How many will die in islamabadgate? Fucking commie rat bastid treasonous sons of commie whores.
If I am not mistaken, mussies get all bent out of shape with any art depicting living things. They interperate not making a graven image to mean don’t make a replica of anything living. That is why their mosques are decorated in geometric designs.
Is there a muslim lawn jockey to go with that?
Now a statue of a gilded Moose riding with spurs on, and the “native” art will be complete. Man do I need help.
It’s the Venus de Mohammed.
