Just another Rescrublican  politician showing off his personal ignorance about supporing the Arts!  Politicians like this, have not problems spending tax payer dollars on inconclusive investigations about what happened in Benghazi, LIbya; which cost upwards of several millions of federal tax dollars, but balk at support for programs like PBS or national public radio, calling it a "waste of tax payer dollars."  Sorry there, but to me it seems tha Rescrublicans in Congress have their priorities a bit screwed up, while claiming to represent the publics interests!
