A mock nativity scene at the Texas Capitol in which Baby Jesus was represented as the U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights was removed on Tuesday after Governor Greg Abbott complained that it was “tasteless sarcasm,” Abbott’s office said.

The display showed three of the Founding Fathers of the United States along with the Statue of Liberty gazing at the document. It went on display on Dec. 18 after being approved by the State Preservation Board.
