IMHO, that statue is not a work of art. It looks like the epitomie of kitsch.

You’re entitled to any opinion you like. But when some knucklehead spends $8,000 of the taxpayer’s money, I’m allowed to bitch about it.

Ashcroft should have moved his podium, himself, like a person in a non-government job would do.

Instead, he spent our money to make an ass of himself.

Well if you are going to bitch don't forget FDR. That statue probably cost more than $8,000 in today's dollars.

Btw, would you like to be in a picture Ashcroft is in on every front page in America?

And like I stated before maybe they can't move where the press conferences are at, due to logistical reasons. that is where the podium is and that is where all the electrical outlets used for media is. Would you rather have him spend $100,000 for a new podium and electrical system?
