Busted Tribute

Commentary Magazine  "Regardless of what the artist may say, there are artistic conventions. A bust of Stalin commemorates Stalin, not his victims. It is the wrong image in the wrong place." Ben Schachter

The D-Day Memorial  Read about the Stalin Debate .

The Bedford Boys "Nineteen of the young men cut down that day were from the small central Virginia town of Bedford. The saying has been oft repeated that Bedford suffered the greatest loss of any town in the U.S. that day, per capita."
 Why Bedford, Virginia was chosen for the D-Day Memorial. Then we spent the next half-century keeping Stalinists out of this country; only to erect a statue to the tyrant. In Bedford.
