SAVE $155 MILLION ANNUALLY

And the suck-up award winner is ... the National Endowment for the Arts.

There is a new president and a new NEA. The president first. This is the first president that actually writes his own books since Teddy Roosevelt and arguably the first to write them really well since Lincoln. If you accept the premise, and I do, that the United States is the most powerful country in the world, then Barack Obama is the most powerful writer since Julius Caesar. That has to be good for American artists.
Why is this hosanna appearing on an official government website? Has it become the job of the NEA to communicate how wonderful our Dear Leader is?

Why are America's taxpayers funding this tripe to the tune of $155 million annually?

Mark Steyn piles on.
