In 1989, Christian conservatives attempted to reframe the debate over the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and federal funding for the arts from waste to immorality by attacking grants for 'anti-Christian' and 'homoerotic' art.  The Rev. Donald Wildmon of the American Family Association initiated the campaign against "Piss Christ and the NEA, warning that "the bias and bigotry against Christians, which has dominated television and movies for the last decade or more, has now moved over to the art museums". The Christian Coalition placed a full-page ad in the ''Washington Post'' warning Congress that taxpayers would punish them for "wasting their hard-earned money to promote sodomy, child pornography, and attacks on Jesus Christ. [[Patrick Buchanan]] warned that "America's art and culture are, more and more, openly anti-Christian, anti-American, nihilistic," and called for conservatives to lead "a cultural revolution". in a 1992 campaign commercial, Buchanan blamed the [[George H. W. Bush]] administration for funding "so-called art that has glorified homosexuality, exploited children and perverted the image of Jesus Christ".<ref> Richard Bolton, ed.
