I think Ronald Reagan appointed Lynn Cheney as the director for the Nat'l Endowment for the Arts during his time in office. Perhaps, Dubya will increase the budget and put a patriotic conservative at the helm so that the money is used wisely.

...Lynn Cheney as the director for the Nat'l Endowment for the Arts...

You mean the same Lynne Cheney who claims to be a vociferous opponent of "political correctness". In Cheney's illustrated children's book, "America: A Patriotic Primer" however you will find a little bit of "political correctness"

On the page for the letter 'H' (for Heroes)...is a drawing of a famous FDR photo which showed him smoking a cigarette in a cigarette-holder. However, in this drawing he is not smoking. Gone are the cigarette and holder.

Lynne Cheney expressed in a September 2000 interview with the Washington Times, that "political correctness" is "a real threat to free expression, the open clash of ideas, to all those things we've valued in this country."

From a Christian perspective, the most ridiculous example of "political correctness" is on the page for the letter 'G' (for God), opposite a drawing of "Main Street USA" that includes a mosque and a Hindu temple.
