Who Said It? “If I Ran the NEA?”– The Answer

The other day, we posted this:

“If I ran the NEA? I’d abolish it. I’d be the Gorbachev of federal arts endowing and destroy my own job as the head of it. Artists are so self-important — art is basic to human nature, it will always be produced and does not need the government’s help. The NEA is a perfect example of Mission Creep: The government’s job is to protect you, from external enemies and internal criminals, and to maintain roads, schools, and a social safety net. Art is far afield, and in no danger of going away without government money or guidance.”

Your choices are:

A.  Ann Coulter

B.  Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

C.  Neil Patrick Harris

D.  Bill Maher

And the answer is…Bill Maher.  I think more money was on Ann Coulter, but it was actually Maher.
