		<description>What I find most fascinating is that it took almost one hour for the first comment/post to appear about this item.&lt;br /&gt;
It is also interesting -from a purely academic sense mind you given the limited excerpt- that for a publication that tries to vilify a certain &#039;lifestyle&#039;, it offers up a great deal of information that could clarify some popular terminology and actually be useful; from a purely academic sense, of course.</description>

		<description>...You know, after yesterday&#039;s ColOMoscopy, there may actually be something to this &quot;sodomy is a learned habit&quot; bit. After having six feet of camera crammed through a rear end that&#039;s been marked for 47 years as &quot;Exit Only&quot;, learning to like it going the other way has *got* to be a habit that&#039;s acquired over time much in the same way one gets used to hitting one&#039;s self over the head with a 2x4. Unless there really *is* a &quot;sodomy gene&quot;.

Of course, the fact that I woke up halfway through the damn thing probably didn&#039;t help...:-(</description>

		<description>Site is so slow now that it&#039;s impossible to comment, but I gave up when I realized how long it was.  However, the first real page contains this gem: &quot;What should the Christian&#039;s attitude be toward the sodomites?&quot;

This is exactly why the left is so sour against Christianity.. people telling them what their attitude should be.  And people who &lt;i&gt;need to have their attitude told to them&lt;/i&gt;.  I love my Catholic wife, in part because she doesn&#039;t do things like tell me what my attitude toward something should be.  It allows us to have a dialog, instead of a war.</description>

		<description>boy, Boing Boing, the author really paints with a broad brush when it states &quot;chosen target of what one could tent together as &quot;Republican Interests&quot;

I believe party affiliation is switching roles these days, seems like Republicans have been demonized as non compassionate dittoheads, 

give us a break, there seems to be more compssion among the conservitives these days, and judgement fro the left. What do you think?</description>

As a GLBT activist, I think you&#039;re so wrong I suspect you of being a left wing troll, written to sound like a parody of a conservative.  

If you are, quit it.  It&#039;s bad karma.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;seems like Republicans have been demonized as non compassionate dittoheads&lt;/em&gt;

Given the activities of solidly Republican groups like the American Family Association (the contemporary equivalent of Hafer&#039;s homophobic drivel), it&#039;s hardly surprising. And that&#039;s before we get to those advocates for compassion and moderation, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and Michael Savage. If you can find a compassionate quote from any of those three wretches, don&#039;t hesitate to post it.</description>

		<description>I loved the side-bar quote (p.52, I think), regarding A2M contact:

&quot;As you might imagine, saliva contains many germs and substances not normally found in the rectum.&quot;

Mouth = dirty, filthy, germ-infested
Rectum = clean as a whistle, baby!

On first reading I thought this was *hilarious*, then I remembered people still think/feel this way.</description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t know the RNC was putting out it&#039;s platform in graphic novel form.

Anyone who can turn the Stonewall Riots (which are to the GLBTQ community an event on par with Bull Connor turning dogs on civil rights protesters) into a gag about swishes wielding purses is best left to the dustbin of history.

		<description>I, for one, was SHOCKED to find out that sodomites engage in practices like &quot;kissing&quot; and &quot;fellatio&quot;.  Good thing us heterosexuals don&#039;t do anything weird like that.  Just good ol&#039; missionary sex, once a year, through a hole in a sheet, like God intended.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;Dick Hafer, dick hater?&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

...You know, that&#039;s what I thought was said at the start, and was about to post a comment about the irony of that, but remembering how ysdxleci I&#039;ve gotten in my old age, I managed to catch myself.

But who knows? Maybe there is a book called &lt;I&gt;Spots On The Wall&lt;/i&gt; by Hu Flung Pu...:-)

		<description>I knew that artwork looked familiar! 

Hafer also made a comic called &quot;You&#039;re Not Supposed To Get Mugged By Your Own Army!&quot; about the broken military procurement process, back in 1980. The comic was commissioned by Julie Research Labs, a small electronics form in NYC which had been &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.csmonitor.com/1981/1026/102668.html&quot;&gt;frozen out of the Pentagon&#039;s procurement process&lt;/a&gt; because they weren&#039;t part of the old-boy network, even though they made superior equipment at a lower cost. 

I worked for JRL part-time in the late &#039;80s, where I learned to take apart and reassemble computers, among other things. There was a box of the Hafer comics on a storage shelf, but I didn&#039;t bother to take any home. </description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t even have to read article or caption to recognize the comic.  I think I have it stashed away with my high school stuff.  As a card carrying Young Republican, I handed these out at school.  Found it a few years back and read it again.  Freaked the living s#$t out of me.  I now live as a crypto-establishmentarian, hiding from the police state we live in.  As a former Christian In Action, I bought the whole enchilada back in the day: God, Guns, and Government.  My whole life revolved around making sure Christ was safe in the world, Junipero Serra would have been proud.  Now military people, christies, and politicians of all persuasions freak me out.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I didn&#8217;t even have to read article or caption to recognize the comic.  I think I have it stashed away with my high school stuff.  As a card carrying Young Republican, I handed these out at school.  Found it a few years back and read it again.  Freaked the living s#$t out of me.  I now live as a crypto-establishmentarian, hiding from the police state we live in.  As a former Christian In Action, I bought the whole enchilada back in the day: God, Guns, and Government.  My whole life revolved around making sure Christ was safe in the world, Junipero Serra would have been proud.  Now military people, christies, and politicians of all persuasions freak me out.</p>

		<description>@Cholling:

Let&#039;s all take a moment to think of poor Ms. Hafer.

All the &quot;sodomy&quot; talk puts me in mind of this old story, the young man who asked a simple questions of another brave culture warrior battling the mighty homosexual agenda. 

&quot;Justice Scalia, do you sodomize your wife?&quot;

		<description>The idea that homosexuality is a behavior rather than genetic harkens back to the 19th century. The view is popular amongst some sets of Christian groups. Because if it is a behavior (like drinking) you can just stop doing it and you would cease to be a gay person. If being gay is genetic (which has some support) then there is the possibility that God wanted it that way. A dangerous point of view to hold for some people.</description>

		<description>yep - best forgotten. more detritus for the trash heap of history.

this artist seems really FASCINATED by his subject matter - he is obviously quite deeply emotionally engaged in his topic.

&lt;insert amateur Freudian analysis comment here&gt;</description>

		<description>The book link posted by nehpetsE shows a illustrated cover. A very excited man is playing with his train along side other men while his new wife is left wanting something more. The way the men were grasping their trains seemed a little odd to me. Also there are no tunnels in the scene. 
This I noticed before I read the comic book... 



- O M G
clearly this cartoonist has something on his mind.

		<description>Somehow, the combination of entirely competent cartooning and utter bugfuckness is reminding me of 90s fan-favorite superhero artist Neal Adams&#039; &lt;a href=http://www.nealadams.com/morescience.html&gt;crusade for his theory of an expanding Earth&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;&quot;OM: You just have to get your ass in gear, that&#039;s all. ;)&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

...According to the doctor, my ass *is* in gear. They didn&#039;t find *anything*, not one single polyp, lesion or &#039;rhoid. What I need now is to simply get my shit together :-(
