Pro-lifers don't like pro-life Britney statue
Advertisements [?]
Seriously, is no one ever happy? It seems like a man can't sculpt an image of Britney Spears on a bearskin rug squeezing out her first born son without everyone getting all worked up about it, even those you thought were on your side.

You see, artist Daniel Edwards created "Monument To Pro-Life: The Birth of Sean Preston" as an homage to the young mother, citing her bravery in choosing to put her baby ahead of her career. The problem is, Edwards' fellow pro-lifers don't like the sculpture very much, given Britney's rather provocative pose, which is, I'm assuming, not the most comfortable position for giving birth, unless you happen to be a pack mule.

But it's not just pro-life groups who are taking umbrage to Edwards' masterpiece; the animal rights group PETA isn't happy with the bearskin rug Brit is birthing upon, either. Okay, so his little art project didn't quite make the statement he intended, big deal. If nothing else, he should be honored that he actually got two groups who probably tend to lean opposite directions politically to agree on at least one thing. That's a grand achievement in itself.
