Autodafé!
Wow! Crooked Timber points the way to this story, on Alabama State Senator Gerald Allen's bill to prevent schools from using public funds to buy books about homosexuality, or even by homosexual authors!
This must be a really embarassing time to be a Republican. But me, I'm hoping that these paltry sorts of culture wars (Mr. Allen is surely condemned to the rubbish-heap of endless ridicule) will escalate into la vraie chose. If I play things right, I could end up being burned at the stake like Giordano Bruno! If I'm really bad, they may even nail my tongue to my jaw so I can't speak poisonous lies!
