Flag In Toilet

The definition of art has really gone downhill.

It's a painting of a star-spangled map of the United States being flushed down the toilet.

And some people want to give it the can. The painting is part of a display of political artwork at the California attorney general's office in Sacramento.

I'm against the any kind of flag burning/desecration amendment. Why? Because it makes guys like this easy to spot.

The controversial artwork has sparked dueling demonstrators. Some of the protesters yesterday shouted "no to censors," while others sang "God Bless America." Attorney General Bill Lockyer says he doesn't endorse the painting, titled "T'anks to Mr. Bush." But Lockyer says to remove it would be like Soviet-style government censorship.

Yeah, it's like that alright.

How did something like that get in there in the first place? Someone in his office endorsed it.
