Apparently, according to Pandragon (and elsewhere) James Dobson, founder of "Focus on the Family" has found a new threat to the children of our nation.
Spongebob Squarepants.
According to Dobson, Spongebob is being enlisted in what he calls a "pro-homosexual video." The makers of the video, he said, planned to mail it to thousands of elementary schools to promote a "tolerance pledge" that includes tolerance for differences of "sexual identity."
Horrors! I knew I should have killed the sponge that I studied in Biology! I would be helping fight that nebulous, omnipresent homosexual conspiracy! I mean, we can't have tolerance of differences in sexuality. No sir!
I tell you, between Dobson and, say, Jack Chick, the Onion's writers have it harder and harder these days. I'd laugh more, if this intolerance didn't scare the crap out of me.
Do we really need our grandchildren to read some modern day person's echoing words. "First they came for the gays and lesbians, but I said nothing, because I was straight..."
