I don't find it offensive but I do think its distracting as a background for making public statements. In addition, there are some cultures that hate us right now that do find the showing of the naked female body as an abomination.
Transmitting the images of a naked statute to the entire world that has folks who will use that image to pursuade others to take up arms against us isn't the brightest thing we could do right now.

The ole "we made those poor oppressed Islamo-Nazis hate us cause we're evil" argument.
Good one, VRWC.
