No, NO, NO!
You people don't remember, do you? The Jesse Jackass reference was the closest one.
Rainbows are not about GAY/LESBIAN politics. Rainbows are about DIVERSITY politics. "All colors are equally beautiful," "Celebrate Diversity," that kinda crap.
Keyword here being "equal." Yup. That's right. The statists are invading our turf. It's a gun (Or knife. Or lighter, except for smoke Nazis) for Liberal Democrats.
So can the queer jokes, and polish up the old Marxist Slogan Machine, comrade! You have nothing to lose but your mind! Hey, right on the face of it, why not? Maybe you could advertise 'em over on Democratic Underground. Might fish in a few of the hardcore progressive fanatics. I'd suggest hippies and Deadheads, too, but they have a tendency to take way too much LSD. Acid makes the sight-picture swim around too much for good accuracy. (Presuming it hasn't made 'em crazy, that is.)
BTW, the gay-rainbow thing came about because of A) the whole tolerance aspect, B) being gay cuts across all racial lines, and C) because being gay is technically invisible, and gays suffer from discrimination similar to racially-based prejudice. Rainbows have ALL the colors, even the ones you can't see. "Mutually inclusive," ya dig?
Or so I have it on good authority from a very good friend of mine who's gay. Hmmm... I wonder why Jesse Jackass never works with any of the gay/lesbian political bodies? D'you s'pose he might be a bit, uh...phobic?
Sorry, an indiscrete line of inquiry for The High Road, I realize. Sowing doubts and casting speculative aspersions about does not become us. Manners and decoruim, always.
Bet'd make ol' Jesse steam sumpin' fierce, though!
