I just received this e-mail.

Dear Zoe,

For people who are so disgusted by homosexuals, it's amusing to me that they have a picture of men kissing as part of their e-mail banner. However, I'd like to know more about the latest homosexual indoctrination techniques, so I think I might have to go. Especially since it's here in DC at the Omni Shoreham (just north of DC's gay Dupont Circle) and it is most of my very favorite right-wing demagogues-- WBA! Ricky! Roy! Alan! Jerry! Gary! Zel! Phyllis! Sam! Only Pat "High Priest of Demagoguery" Robertson would make the list complete.

The problem is that it's $149, although married couples get in for $259. Anyone want to be my beard/husband October 17-18? We could find out what those badges look like and make our own. Or maybe we can get in free as "press"? (We'd probably just have to make up a right-wing newsblog, say we're friends of Jeff Gannon.) In my experience conferences like these have very light security, if any. If you smile, look the part and dress the part, they're happy to have you there. Any other takers?

Hmmm. I think there is still an active Lesbian Avengers group around, perfect place for an old fashioned "Kiss-in" or some other similar mischief. Might have to drop them an e-mail.
