White House Press Secretary Jay Carney and his family are featured in a worshipful profile in this month's Washingtonian magazine.

It's the sort of adoring journalistic exercise reserved for only the most handsome of the power elite. In it you can find out details about the Carney dog (a cousin to presidential pooch Sonny!), and how much the press secretary's tie costs ($135).

But keen observers may notice the kitchen decor in the photo: Soviet propaganda posters. They really are the perfect pop of color whether you are the dour and sincere Nikita Khrushchev or the cheeky press-wrangler for a president who is constantly accused of being a socialist himself. --Michael Brendan Dougherty

Mass State Murder hipster kitsch is all the rage, Gramps.
For atleast the last 40 years.
Get with the program.

You know how it works-Slavery and The Holocaust are reverent subjects. But we are allowed to joke and have posters for the rest. I ordered a Khmer Rouge Bone Pile Coffee Mug this morning, it will be a big hit at my next Democratic Underground coffee klatch.

I hate this arse hat as much as the next guy, but he was a correspondent for Time for the fall of the USSR. I'm sure anyone in the same position would have similar relics in their home.
