A cute idiot

My cousin Deb just sent me an email in which she describes Sarah Palin as cute but an idiot. I guess a cute idiot would be more interesting to have around in Washington than the ugly idiots we have there now. I wonder where Sarah stands on funding for the arts? I wonder if she thinks that a stuffed moose head is an object of art? We know where she stands on the NRA but what about NPR?

One thing that is not high on the list of talking points is what will happen to the already diminished funding for arts education. I realize that with a deficit in the skizillions and war being raged on 2 fronts, funding for the art’s is low on the totem pole of concerns in Washington but please let us not diminish the importance of culture in our society and the special impact of a free, unfettered and thoughtful public forum like NPR and PBS. We have to ask and have a right to know were the candidates of both parties stand on funding for the arts.
