To be called a homophobe is to have a diagnostic label placed on one, suggesting slyly--with that insufferable sanctimony only Freudians are capable of--that one's objections have nothing to do with reason, tradition, theology, or anything else: one is opposed to homosexuality because one is oneself repressed and, quite likely, a sodomite in secret. That's a problem, because it creates a political discourse full of sanctimony. Franken's chapters on rightwing sanctimony about the uncivil "tone" of politics are dead-on. |
