</pre><font face="Courier New, Courier">I don't even know where to begin
with this. I mean by this standard most pop music, Hollywood films and
the tabloids would '...have to go'. And maybe that's not such a bad
thing, but where do you start and how do you finish?<br><br>
'Have to go', or what? On pain of death, exile, mind flushing?<br><br>
Sorry, I just don't see this, and to be brutally honest if you want to
know why the left gets marginalized, it's saying things like this. When
Falwell, Reed etc. talk about banning atheists, Catholics, Jews,
agnostics, or even those who like a secular state, from positions of
authority or appearing in the media we're rightly all over them as
intolerant dicks cloaking themselves with the church. I don't see this as
being qualitatively different no matter how good the intent.<br><br>
