Next time you put off braces for one of your kids, remember these “artists” are using your tax dollars to support liberals and their causes - ACORN - OBAMACARE - TRASHCIA etc... and they’re using LOTS OF YOUR MONEY...

Only part of it did, and the White House quickly “re-assigned” a low level staffer caught speaking.

This is a new segment of the tape, were a direct staffer of Valerie Jarrett blabs on and on as to how NEA grants should be used to promote obama’s agenda....

This segment is much more damning, and essentially documents law breaking on part of White House staffers

“...This is news to me. I had assumed that the NEA was designed to fund left-wing art, just like NPR is designed to broadcast left-wing political analysis. Most artists are on the left anyway. Is it just that they are supposed to distance themselves from any political candidate or officeholder?...”

You’re right (except you left out PBS). But here’s the difference with this situation: it’s one thing for Conservatives to point at the end product and say: this supposedly independent federal agency is funding biased, left wing art (or documentaries, or news reports, or whatever). It’s a whole different matter when you can say: here’s audio proof that this supposedly independent federal agency is openly advocating the creation of Obama-friendly content. That’s clearly corrupt, both on the part of the agency, and on the part of the any artist or arts group willing to play along.

Most artists are on the left anyway.

That's just not true. I am an artist, I have artist associates, artist colleagues and artist friends all over this country and MOST of us are NOT liberal.

We quietly go about our work, creating art, making a living and of course the MSM is not interested in us one way nor another.

As with all liberals, artist liberals are given the MSM megaphone to shout their garbage!

"Yeah Wicks ties this propaganda fest directly back to the WH. Jarrett was also the nut who brought Van Jones on board. Breitbart is chipping away at the moonbat core of the admin piece by flaky piece."

Wicks is also (apparently) the leader who used ACORN people in a boycott against Wal-Mart.

This is far more damning than Watergate or Iran-Contra. There is no ambiguity about WH efforts to pedal propaganda.

They've probably also violated their own establishing charter (20 U.S.C. § 951-956), which expressly forbids federal involvement in the establishment of educational curricula or policy.

Oh yeah!

§ 953. National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities

How Current is This?
(a) Establishment; composition
There is established a National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities (hereinafter referred to as the “Foundation”), which shall be composed of a National Endowment for the Arts, a National Endowment for the Humanities, a Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities, and an Institute of Museum Services.
(b) Purpose
The purpose of the Foundation shall be to develop and promote a broadly conceived national policy of support for the humanities and the arts in the United States, and for institutions which preserve the cultural heritage of the United States pursuant to this subchapter.
(c) Prohibition against Federal supervision over policy determination, personnel, or curriculum, or administration or operation of any school or other non-Federal body
In the administration of this subchapter no department, agency, officer, or employee of the United States shall exercise any direction, supervision, or control over the policy determination, personnel, or curriculum, or the administration or operation of any school or other non-Federal agency, institution, organization, or association.

But when has the law ever stopped Obama or his minions?

“We paid for these posters......
.....

They used our money-ACORN,Americorps,Nat Endowment of the Arts... to promote a failing presidents policies, while we all lose our jobs and suffer.”


That is a sound bite that encapsulates what is wrong in a short, simple sentence that should be hammered home, over & over until people “get it”!

The audacity to have a HOTLINE to report FRAUD WASTE AND ABUSE...

As well as no IG is listed...

When IG Walpin reported fraud HE WAS FIRED BY OBAMA!

We should all report 0bama's campaign for failed political policies as abuse.

OIG Hotline

The OIG operates a Fraud Hotline to provide an opportunity for concerned citizens, program participants, employees of Corporation for National and Community Service grant recipients, Volunteers, and others to report instances of fraud, waste, abuse of authority, and mismanagement.

OIG Hotline telephone number is 1-800-452-8210.

Reports may also be made via e-mail to hotline@cncsig.gov. The message you send requires that you verify that you are a real live human being and not a spam source.
