OK this has gone off topic, unchecked and (now) has gotten political.

Henry Hyde is no friend to controversial art.

"But Congressman Hyde’s effort to rid books, movies, TV and even
sculpture of "toxic waste" fared no better than his impeachment crusade.
His bill was so broadly written that even Bob Barr voted against its
vision of a Soviet-scale bureaucracy with license to censor everything
from "Home Alone" to TV news of atrocities in Kosovo to the Brothers
Grimm."
