How soon people forget! The big Wall Street bailout of $700 billion was signed into law by Bush in October 2008, three months before Obama took office—in fact, even before he was elected.

The current head of the NEA is Janet Chu, who is from the heartland (Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas) whose signature achievement seems to be seeing how the arts affect GDP--before taking over the NEA, she was best known for pushing to build an arts centre in Kansas City. What has she done that deserves to be "put on notice"? Genuinely curious.
