Recently, a lone gunman attempted unsuccessfully to assassinate portions of the White House front lawn. Although as of this writing the polcie say they have no clue as to the man's motivation for this act, already many are blaming the incident on the Religious Right and demanding that something be done about it.
We here at Future Dead White Males, the nation's newest and silliest minority pressure group, want to make it clear right from the start that we have no objection to a Senate investigation of the Religious Right. In fact, having people paraded before a committee and asked if they have ever belonged to the Religious Right would be downright nostalgic. In addition, because the Religious Right was invesnted out of whole cloth by the masss media, most of us have no idea whether we belong to it or not. A Senate investigation would be a real help on that front.
However, we must insist that any witch hunt for the Religious Right be separated from last weekend's shooting spree at the White House. Whatever the gunman's politics are, they are definitely not ours. Even the most lunativ member of the right wing would never risk the possibility of making Al Gore the president.
