I'm talking about federal arts here....... they all suck particularly under a liberal Gov't, who frankly couldn't give a damn about the arts (and please, nobody say that that's because nobody else does either) and they don't want to invest any money in the cultural fabrication of our society....because in the long run, the arts shapes our nation, our culture and our identity long after the latest sporting heros have been forgotton. It's be nice to see somebody who's passionate about the arts for a change
