I'm not seeing the second comment on this thread that I can see on the back-end (and the front page says that there are two comments here). Oh, gosh.

Anyway, I was just going to respond to you, Bil. False dichotomy, eh? I'm trying to remember who it was, but I do remember that there was a gay activist of some sort on a fundie website last week in their comments thread saying something about how fundamentalist political advocacy groups should be more focused on poverty than on sexophobia/homophobia. Hmmmm.... I can't remember who it was, but maybe you should tell him that it isn't a win-lose dichotomy and that he's comparing apples to oranges.

I, of course, wouldn't tell him that. People have decided already that what R. Kelly did was less important than what Michael Vick did. R. Kelly's the one with a new album that's doing well and a strong career. The media's been obsessed with Vick in ways that it wasn't with R. Kelly (although there was coverage). So are people allowed to say that child molestation of a girl is less important than dog-fighting, but if others turn around those priorities, they're the ones setting up a false dichotomy? Interesting.

Whatevs. The reason I posted this is because I don't think people realize that Jasmyne Cannick actually has a wicked sense of humor sometimes. She can definitely be serious, people know that, but here it's just like, who posts survey results and makes fun of the respondents in the same breath? There's a certain amount of absurdism here, and that's what at least I and a few other people picked up on. That's all.
