As a sequel to the Statue of Liberty in my previous post, I now take the liberty of presenting some more information of (non-)interest.
The French worked their but* off to meticulously build the Statue of Liberty [a female figure].
But they forgot to put "the thingie" on her which did not escape the ever-vigilant eyes of "mad-as-hell" folks at the MAD magazine... :-)
She has, by the turn of events in this day and age, become to symbolise America's ever-growing "BIG BROTHER is watching you" nature (i.e. mass surveillance, indefinite detention & killings without judicial oversight, police-state brutality, gradual erosion of civil rights, harassment/racial profiling by homeland security -- to name a few) as has been captured by a conscientious cartoonist.
