Banksy Backlash

Comment is Free, a Cruel Mistress:

Recently, our hero's made headlines by sneaking a dummy dressed in Guantánamo rags into Disneyland (once again fearlessly exposing Mickey Mouse's disgusting war criminal past), and defacing several hundred copies of Paris Hilton's new album (I haven't heard her CD, but I'm willing to bet it's far superior to Blur's godawful Think Tank, a useless bumdrizzle of an album, whose artwork was done by Banksy - presumably he spray-painted it on a brick and hurled it through EMI's window, yeah?).

I know he's one of our featured Radicals, but the more I read about His Stenciley Elusiveness, the more I think he's a pretentious twat. And "Think Tank" indeed did blow.
