Fox: Library's White House mug shots might confuse little kids David Edwards and Muriel Kane
Published: Thursday November 29, 2007


When the Daily News reported on an exhibit at the New York Public Library of photos of George Bush, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, and Condoleezza Rice doctored to look like prison mug shots, it touched only lightly on the artistic purposes of the display and appeared to be deliberately aiming to stir up political controversy.

The article noted that one observer had found the exhibit "hysterical" but primarily emphasized that "not everyone was amused," including a pair of brothers who told the Daily News of their plans to set up their own "rogues gallery" of Democrats, with an emphasis on Bill Clinton and Ted Kennedy.

The exhibit, by artists Nora Ligorano and Marshall Reese, shows Bush holding up a board saying "Washington DC Police 1-28-2003." That is the date of the State of the Union address during which he uttered the notorious "sixteen words" based on the forged Niger documents, stating, "The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." The date for Karl Rove is July 11, 2003, the day on which he leaked Valerie Plame's identity.

2. gee, that moran sort of misses the point--that, at least for now, we are still free
to post images of the pols, of whatever party.

nobody is stopping him--he shouldn't have any difficulty finding a venue.
