So, there's a country singer named Kelly Foxton who likes to dress up her pet squirrel in little outfits. Lots and lots of little outfits.
Now, Sugar Bush is no ordinary squirrel. She is a patriotic squirrel! Many of the pictures on the site are bizarrely militaristic, and frankly, just a liiiittle creepy. Here, for example, Sugar Bush inspects the gallows in preparation for Saddam Hussein's assassination.
The fun begins when the Sugar Bush Squirrel (TM!) page gets linked on Cute Overload.
fifi sums up the whole bizarre situation best:
the thing about the politics is...
really, what political message is sent by dressing up your squirrel in military garb? It borders on the parodic, or the surreal.
Too aesthetically bizarre to be deemed mere partisanship--regardless of the conscious intentions of the artist. It's a rodent-folk-art version of Cindy Sherman!
