A statue of Lenin in the Ukraine was recently de-communized, and the artful sculptor chose to turn it into Darth Vader and a free WIFI hot-spot.
How will Americans respond to this theft of our very own Darth?
You'll only have to wait another month until the unveiling of a statue in honor of Dick Cheney in Washington DC!
It has been noted that throughout history many memorial monuments, including ours to our First President are often phallic; we will again provide proof of our continuing exceptionalism, by erecting an actual dick.

I'm frankly disappointed it will be an indoor-displayed marble bust. Perhaps Robert Arneson will be commissioned and he can give nod to his Moscone bust by incorporating some Nigerian yellowcake into the piece.
Considering how Cheney was booed at Obama's inaugural--in a wheelchair, no less: has anyone in a wheelchair ever been booed?--I wonder if they will need it constantly guarded. Or sprayed with that urine repelling substance that they are using on walls in San Fran BnB?
At the very least, they should work from Mike Luckovich sketches.
My mind is whirling, much like vomit being flushed down a toilet, just thinking of possibilities.
