Art is art. True. But art as social commentary should promote social responsibility, especially if it's being leveraged as a qualification for public office like in this case.

I mean, hell, Sean Hannity basically weasels out of charges of hurting the public with his commentary by saying it's just "entertainment" -- art is art. I don't think that's the company you want to keep.
