And Ye Shall Go Forth…to Columbia
The Religious Right is mad as hell, and they’re not gonna take it anymore! The Somdomites and Lesbithans have apparently taken over, so they will simply have to found their own nation…in South Carolina (via Neil Gaiman). These idiots are going to need a much better slogan than “Civil War in 2016″ (if only they could get their shit together this year), but they have at least kept to the proper Complete Lunatics’ Code of Conduct by posting the details of their dastardly plan on their website. Otherwise how would we have any chance of thwarting it?
Oh, and in case our friends have forgotten, the South loses.

Re-visiting their webiste, I’ve realized that I actually agree with these nuts on one point. I am also in favor of repealing the 17th Amendment. The Senate was supposed to be an aristocratic check on the vulgarities of the populist House. Now, with gerrymandering, we have a House which is much more rigid, and a Senate which must pander to the public. It’s not right that special (but not necessarily evil-let’s not forget that the ACLU is technically a special interest) interests should have a greater hold on the body more closely in tune with local and domestic affairs, while idiots who think Saddam Hussein was responsible for 9/11 get to vote directly for representatives of entire states who are empowered to give ‘advice and consent’ to the President on treaties, etc.
