George Will on how President

George Will on how President Bush, through the appointment process, is restoring seriousness to the National Endowment for the Humanities and National Endowment for the Arts. Whether taxpayer dollars should support either of these outfits is a matter of debate. I’m fine with both in theory. But reading Will’s account of the two endowments during the Clinton years suggests to me that their potential for mischief may exceed their potential for good.
