[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 145 (1999), Part 16] [House] [Page 22707] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]GIULIANI CUTS FUNDS TO BROOKLYN ART MUSEUM (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. TRAFICANT. Madam Speaker, I agree with New York Mayor Giuliani for cutting funds to the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Their latest show features the bust of a man frozen in his own blood, a small pig sliced in half and preserved in a bottle of formaldehyde, and a portrait of the Virgin Mary splattered with elephant feces. Art, Madam Speaker? My ascot. Let us tell it like it is. The truth is the art world has gone from Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel to Lorena Bobbit's pristine scalpel. Beam me up. I yield back the trash, not treasures, of the Brooklyn Museum of Disgusting Art. ____________________
