Very appropriate and a model for America!
In one of England's larger cities a monument to stupidity is proposed:
Planning application submitted for York monument to mismanagement From York Press
York, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom:
"The application submitted by Independent councillor Mark Warters, with York architect Matthew Laverack as agent, proposes a marble life-sized statue on a red granite pedestal to the person who voters in a planned public poll consider most responsible for ‘fiascos which have afflicted York.’"
"There would also be three faces carved in relief on three sides of the pedestal, for the next three persons the voters hold most culpable for failures in government."
"Accompanying documents state that the statue would be similar to one nearby to George Leeman and serve as a ‘memorial to the dangers of autocratic rule,' and a warning of the ‘dangers of mismanagement in government' . "
Biggest question for Americans: Where to put the Obama/Holder/Clinton/Pelosi memorial. On The Capitol Mall? Probably not Mt. Rushmore? And then the minor question about which of the quartet gets pride of place! This could be a boon to West Virginia's coal mining industry if the choice goes the right way.
