Your tax $$ @ Work

Are there no depths to which President Oy!Bama won't sink?

"I was invited by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to take part in a conference call that invited a group of rising artist and art community luminaries “to help lay a new foundation for growth, focusing on core areas of the recovery agenda - health care, energy and environment, safety and security, education, community renewal.”

And to what, exactly, is our correspondent referring? Well to this, silly:

"Backed by the full weight of President Barack Obama’s call to service and the institutional weight of the NEA [National Endowment for the Arts] ... to push an agenda other than the one for which it was created ... to initiate, organize, and tap into the art community to help bring awareness to health care."

That's right: PresBo has decided it's appropriate to use our tax dollars to advertise his legislative agenda. I found the NEA's mission statement at its website, and it says that the agency is "dedicated to supporting excellence in the arts, both new and established; bringing the arts to all Americans; and providing leadership in arts education."

See anything about health care in there?

Nope?

Me, either.
