Colbert Versus The Texas GOP

07/02/10-by Bridgette P. LaVictoire
The Texas GOP has decided that it wants to violate the Constitution and go against the Supreme Court and recriminalize sodomy.  Of course, as Stephen Colbert adroitly notes, it all depends on what kind of sodomy.  After all, if you declare sodomy illegal, does that mean that straight people who engage in “God sanctioned” sodomy will have to also go to jail?  Also, what about all those gays going to jail “where sodomy obviously does not happen”?

In last nights Threat Down, Colbert tackled the Texas GOP, the Spaghetti-O’s recall, AND Dawn Dish Soap, which, according to Colbert, causes oil spills.

    When did the word sodomy begin to connote homosexuality? If it’s biblically inspired about non-procreative sex acts, I guess that legitimizes Lot’s daughters getting him drunk to get them pregnant. Not that sexual immorality by any definition was the greatest sin of Sodom anyway – Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed in Jeremiah 23:14 for adultery and lying and Ezekiel 16:49-50 for pride, sloth, and idolatry. The actual translation of other flesh which was misinterpreted in the late 20th century as homosexual is “sarkos heteras,” but “heteras” directly gave us the word heterosexual.
    Sorry for the rant. I love Colbert as much as I hate Christian fundamentalists.
