Now that you mention it, isn't there some fellow who's been working alone on
the Crazy Horse carving for the past several decades?  Every couple of years
or so I see or hear a report about this guy who's effectively dedicated his
life to this sculpture, which he's carving (unfortunately as far as the
horse's ass reference is concerned) not on the back of Rushmore, but on some
nearby mountain.  Has anybody heard anything about this lately?

And Walsh will continue to throw away millions of taxpayers dollars (over  
30 million now) while the very democrats who pay him will say the deficit  
is all due to republicans.  I'm not justifying the deficit, but spending  
cuts based on "well, we didn't spend as much as we were going to" doesn't  
cut anything.  In 4 years we'll see how much money the congress is willing  
to spend to investigate Chlinochio and Woody.

This posting clearly eminated from the Committee to Repackage Dan
Quayle (CoReDQ), which, as you know, is based in Allegheny College.

Look at the grammer, the spelling, the punctuation, the strange
placement of capital Letters, the nonsequitors.

For those of you waiting for Al Gore (or, as DQ would say, "Al Gor")
to produce a Gore quote file as impressive as DQ's, well, 
I hope you are patient...

Excellent idea! Only please don't spoil the Sierras; they're  
beautiful, and I'd like to keep them that way.

Now, a few other possibilities come to mind. Perhaps the likenesses  
could be cut in fields like the famous crop circles? Then, come  
harvest time, one could mow and thresh the bastards.

Let's see...there are numerous stripmine slag pits that would be  
appropriate. One might consider the notorious mountain of abandoned  
automobile tires that partially burned within the past few years (in  
Texas?). Then there's the monster landfill outside New York City,  
with hordes of hungry gulls incessantly flapping about, looking for  
something slimy to bite :^)

Alternately, perhaps a series of suitably heroic bas-reliefs on the  
faces of various abandoned or decaying low-income housing units  
(preferably high-rise, for greater size) in, say, Bedford-Stuyvesant,  
Detroit, South-Central Los Angeles (where it wouldn't be easy to find  
one big enough to make the point...), or, better yet, some of  
Washington, DC's more disadvantaged neighborhoods.

(BTW, yes, I'm back. NeXT has access to all the juicy newsgroups I  
favor, so you'll still have Don Coolidge to kick around...:^)

Subject: Quayle in '98
Organization: Paramax Systems Corporation, Paoli PA
Date: Sun, 10 Jan 1993 18:31:15 GMT


  Now that we've neatly disposed of Tom Mehs, we can turn to the subject
  most dear to our hearts, Our Idol, Soon-to-be-Former Vice President
  Dan Quayle.  There was an informative and tantalizing article on the
  future of Dan and Marilyn in the Sunday "Philadelphia Inquirer."  The
  article made the following salient points:

     1.  Many observers of the 1992 presidential campaign credit Dan Quayle
         with being a more effective campaigner than George Bush.  Obviously,
         these observers either never covered Dan on his many campaign stops
         in New Jersey, or suppressed their memories of his performance
         there (and the Garden State provided a bumper crop of QuayleQuotes,
         including the notorious tuber spelling incident).

     2.  Dan and Marilyn will not be returning to their home in McLean, VA
         when they leave their current digs on Observatory Circle.  This
         is the house, you may recall, that they are renting to an unmarried
         couple.  The Quayles will, instead, be living in rented quarters
         until Benjamin and Corinne finish the school year.  (The article
         did not mention the eventual fate of the McLean house, nor whether
         Marilyn had treated the house with ScotchGuard Sin Repellent before
         the rental agreement was signed with the current lessees).

     3.  The Quayles will be returning to Indiana.  Marilyn is expected to
         join a law firm and return to the practice of law.  Please bear in
         mind her comments at the Republican National Convention.  I leave it
         to you to decide if she is denying her essential nature as a woman.
         Dan is expected either to join a conservative think-tank (! "Dan" and
         "Think" in the same sentence!) or to take a position with the family
         newspaper business.

     4.  Dan is being advised to employ the Nixon strategy in order to
         rehabilitate his image with the public.  After Nixon's embarrassing
         performance in the California governor's race in 1962, he sat out
         the election of 1964 and waited until 1968 to unveil the New Nixon.
         
  Prediction:  New Quayle will prove to be an endearing to the general public
               as did New Coke.

That's not humiliating. Now, if he had had to *spell* the results,
that would have been humiliating.

By the way, did anyone see the story today that Dan took a little side
trip to Arizona from his Colorado holiday vacation, in an Air Force jet?
It's reported to have cost the American taxpayers $13,700. I guess you
better get all those trips in while you can, Danny.

As much as I hate Republicans, I must say that I recently heard that the
president who gave out the most pardons during his administration was Truman.
Does anyone know what kind of criminals these were?
	Although I will also add that Truman never had a significant
scandel during his administration (that I am aware of), while the last
three Republican administration can't say the same.

Since I may be the only one reading this newsgroup who is originally from
South Dakota (if there are others, I would enjoy hearing from you), I am moved
to observe that I have never been aware of any proposal to carve Crazy Horse on
the back of Mt. Rushmore.  On the other hand, there is a carving of Crazy Horse
on horseback that is actively being carved near the town of Custer in the Black
Hills--about 30 odd miles from Mt.Rushmore.  Personally, I don't go in much for
turning beautiful, natural mountains into artifacts.  Mount Rushmore 
constitutes an especially awful case in point, since it is a monument to white
conquerors carved in the Black Hills, which were (and are) sacred to the Sioux
and which were stolen from them after Custer discovered gold there in 1874. 
For those who may be interested, Edward Lazarus' book, *Black Hills, White
Justice: The Sioux Nation Versus the United States 1775 to the Present* is a
very good read.

Well, Steve Batterson once offered the following hypothesis:

But we are fans! We are "true" fans. You see, it's kind of like how me
and some of my friends love Drive-In movies (ala Joe Bob Briggs). They're 
awful! They have no acting, lots of gore, and no plot. But we love them,
not despite those factors, but BECAUSE of them.
	It's the same with the Danster. We like Quayle because he can't
spell, talk, or think. We are TRUE fans. The more flubs Quayle makes,
the more we love him.
	I hope this clears up your misunderstanding.

I won't repeat my previous reply in its entirety, but I will add that the man
who began work on the Crazy Horse Monument was Korczak Ziolkowski.  He died
some years ago, but the project is being carried on by his sons.  Funding is by
private donation.  I drove past the monument this past summer, and it is still
a long way from completion, but certainly more recognizable than it was when I
was a kid about 30 years ago.
