It’s hard not to take this election very, very personally. It’s clear that homophobes–toiling under the allegedly more compassionate banner of “social conservatives”–mobilized voters through campaigns wrought with homophobic invective. As a result, not only did Monkeybrain McGruff win another four years in office, but also anti-gay marriage amendments were written into 11 state constitutions. Maybe I’ve got a bit of martyr’s complex going on, but I’m feeling very Helen Reddy/”You and Me Against the World” right now.
Isn’t there someplace I can go for one of them free lobotomy dealie-os? I mean, where do all those Republicans get theirs? …It’d just make my life so much easier. And it might help with this sudden urge I have to buy half a dozen handguns and start mowing down everyone with a Bush/Cheney sticker on the back of his SUV.
