Obscene Statues or Morbid Officials
Spirit of John Ashcroft thriving in Indiana
County officials in Bartholomew County, Indiana, have ordered removal of cement statues, including copies of Venus de Milo and Michelangelo's David, from the yard of a local business because they are "obscene under Indiana law".
Like our former attorney general, the officials in Bartholomew County seem to suffer from monumental hang-up about the human body without clothes on.

"Indecency, vulgarity, obscenity- these are strictly confined to man; he invented them. Among the higher animals there is no trace of them."
---Mark Twain(American humorist, writer and lecturer. 1835-1910)
