Remember that piece of artwork that was hanging on Capitol walls depicting cops as pigs? It was taken down, rehung by a Congressman, taken down again and rehung again by the same jerk. The Capitol Architect finally removed the picture, ruling it was offensive, not in good taste and violated Capitol rules.
That should have been the end of it, but the Congressman, William Lacy Clay from Missouri, says he doesn't give a damn if the picture is in good taste or not and he couldn't care less about Capitol rules; taking it down, he asserts, violates the artist's right to Freedom of Speech. So, he's suing in Federal Court.
Should he by any remote chance win, then I demand that MY Constitutional rights to free speech be recognized and that a huge Christian cross with a Holy Bible be placed next to it.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
