Give me crack and anal sex

Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder.

Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant

So, over at Right Wing News (or, as I like to call it, The Comedy Goldmine), John Hawkins did tell the world how India Shows Us The Future Of Marriage In The US:

Anyone who thinks that gay marriage can become the law of the land without eventually leading to polygamy and family members being allowed to marry as well is just kidding himself...

Well, that's the concluding paragraph. There's lots of supporting evidence for that statement in the actual entry. Lots and lots. Tons. I couldn't possibly quote it all without crashing the server, there's so much.

Will mention the bit about "activist judges." I'd rather hoped this would be intuitively obvious to the most casual of observers, but I do have a nasty tendency to overestimate winger intelligence.

*cough* I, personally, enjoy a much higher quality of life than my grandparents, or even my parents when they were my age, due to the actions of activist judges. I like activist judges. Because if we'd waited for the majority of white folk to agree that, for example, desegregation, interracial marriage and equal employment opportunities are Good Things. . . we'd probably still be waiting.

As I said, should be obvious, but let's face it, them people ain't none too bright.

np: The Future, Leonard Cohen, from the album of the same name. Except I'm listening to the version from the Natural Born Killers soundtrack, because I'm cool like that.

First Whitman and now Cohen. You bring many memories back to me. You take me back to my days as a young poet in college and now I am feeling those old feelings, the ones that were new and fresh when I first felt them, reading Cohen and Whitman and Ammons and McClane and Nemerov.

If you don't know Nemerov, you're really missing something. Read The Sparrow and The Lion. How did that end?

This only goes to prove if you've the wit
To be small, common, cute, and live on shit
Though the cage fret kings
You may make free with it.
