Please note an update to my earlier post about this topic–I had neglected to thank some of the previous contributors, especially Babbling Brooks, and Steven Maich of Maclean’s.

Maich has written a rejoinder to some of the criticism he has received about the Joe Woods issue. It’s an excellent response, and certainly does a better job than I have responding to Ginny and Shannon and Sean.

Man oh man, I am hoping beyond hope that the CPC picks up on this matter for their convention this week.

Hey, maybe instead of the great Political Staples / Space Monkeys “I support Joe Wood” button, the Tory buttons can be a kind of tribute to Ayn Rand:

WHO IS JOE WOOD?

‘Cause friends, it’s either that, or wall-to-wall gaymarriageabortiongaymarriageabortion until you just want to screeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaam.

Do you doubt it for a second?
