David Wojnarowicz's "A Fire In My Belly"


The presumptive Republican Speaker of the House, orange-faced crybaby John Boehner, currently bathing in a post-electoral glow, is taking a retrograde Conservative stand against freedom of expression, calling for censorship of Hide/Seek: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture, an exhibition of "gay art" at the National Portrait Gallery, and threatening a curtailment of government funds if they do not bow to his will.
