I love the bizarre alliances we get on some of these issues--like the anti-pornsters are mostly Bible thumpers, but you get some militant manhating feminazis along for the ride, too.

What a country, as Yakov Smirnoff used to say (maybe he still does).
When slots were on the ballot for Tampa, you had the Baptists in bed with the Seminoles, and PETA fellating both of 'em.... Strange bedfellows indeed.
