What is the conservative obsession with dog-fucking?

Honestly, you'd think every one of them was harboring illicit thoughts about a german shepherd the way it comes up in every verra-be-damned discussion on homosexuality!

If they can't tell the difference between two adult humans kissing and a human abusing a dumb animal, we don't live on the same planet.

Was the entire religious right frightened by an airdale?
Were they all puppy deprived?
What?

I mean, i hear that and all i can think of is that Pepsi commercial with Britney Spears getting Bob Dole's dog all excited.

Enlighten me, please?

Too many cooks? Nonsense

Yesterday was a blast. I made Mexican Turkey casserole. And everyone helped.

Dollface put the tostadas in the baking pan. Obi shredded the turkey. Bunny opened the cans, and Jonner mixed the ingredients.

Obi spread the mix on the tostadas while Bunny grated cheese Dollface put another layer of tostadas on.

Jonner put the pan in the oven.

Me? I wrestled a 25 lb turkey into meal-sized portions.

Today Dollface made a PB&J with supervision.

I bought material for Bunny's skirt for the costume contest. It's a sort of tie-dye with gold crackle over it. Really beautiful stuff.

Thinking my thinks

I can't seem to get as worked up about a lot of issues as a lot of people can.
I suspect it's from reading too much SF.

Polygamous marriage? Sure. i was reading that at 15 in Robert heinlein's Friday. What's the problem? OK, the divorce got ugly, and none of the women ever understood how the guys decided who tospend the night with.

Gay marriage? Confronted that at 17 in Julian May's Pliocene books, and later in her Milieu books. Kind of took it for granted that this was coming.

Cloning? Yeah. It's kind of a given. Reprotech advances? So?

OTOH, I can't get too worked up about the Unborn victims of Violence act. Around here, they call it a "downtown abortion" when a guy gets a bunch of his buddies to beat his girlfriend into a misscarriage or until she dies, whichever comes first. It's just taken for granted in some areas that if you're pregnant you'll get beaten.

Friend of mine was a target of an assault directed at her solely because she was pregnant. Her little guy lived a day after she miscarried him (she was 6 mo) and is buried in the family plot. She could only prosecute the guy for her attempted murder, and not for trying to kill the baby.

Since homicide is the leading killer of pregnant women, i think being able to prosecute twice as hard would be a good thing.
