Who the hell authorized THAT spending? Are those people in Washington all out of their minds?

To ask your second question is pretty well to answer it.

Spending like this is a by-product of the liberal Welfare State. The state spends, period. Its a behemoth that keeps going in the same direction and can't be stopped. It mindlessly spends and spends and spends for the sake of spending. If it wasn't $400,000 for a statute of a camel in Pakistan, it would be $400,000 for a Cowboy museum or for a study of whether you can tell someone is gay by looking at them. If you have a Welfare State, you will always have this nonsense as a by-product. Its one reason the Welfare State is so destructive and ultimately will doom us.
