Flag art controversy - Bush and Cheney will go back on the wall in Kennebunk
from the Portland Press Herald, Nov 9, 2007:
Portraits of President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney will be rehung as part of a controversial exhibit at the Kennebunk Free Library made up of collages crafted from old American flags.
The library’s board of trustees voted Thursday night to allow the exhibit, “American Portraits in a Time of War,” to remain in place and to include the two portraits the library director had removed after a public complaint.

Many people are angry because Bud Swenson's art is made from torn American flags. What do you think about the decision of the library board?
