Erasure – one of the gayest bands on the face of the Earth. I don’t mean that in the ‘God, that’s so GAY’ way, but in the literal ‘this is the musical equivalent of two gay men making out at a Judy Garland film festival’ kind of way. I love them though, and if you can’t be secure enough in your sexuality to shake your ass to perfect dance tunes like ‘Sometimes’ and ‘Chains Of Love’ then you have some serious issues to work out.
POLITICAL RANT WARNING. IF YOU ARE CONSERVATIVE, OR IF YOU DON’T LIVE IN AMERICA AND DON’T CARE ABOUT AMERICAN POLITICS, YOU MAY WANT TO SCROLL DOWN A BIT.
If there is one person I’m sure of that wouldn’t be caught dead shaking his tush to Erasure is everyone’ favorite homophobic asshole, Rick Santorum. Here in the states its election day, and I will soon have the joy of voting against him in my local senate race. I’ve been force-fed his political advertisements for months now, I’m sick of them, and I need to vent.
I hate that little-dicked shitstain of humanity. Santorum’s gay-bashing/woman-hating political viewpoints are comparable to the segregationist views of conservatives in the 1950s and 60s, and will be just as reviled and embarrassing in the years to come. This stupid little twat can’t seem to understand the difference between pedophiles and homosexuals (he blamed ‘the gays’ for the Catholic Church scandal) and claims that homosexuality will bring the downfall of American society (how? who knows – I’m assuming it will involve episodes of Queer As Folk, and amazingly well-dressed men.) I hate hate hate hate HATE him.
The best thing about him though is that you just know someone as homophobic and hateful as him goes home at night, he waits till the wife is sound asleep, and then spanks his tiny cock while looking at hot hot gay porno. When he’s booted from the Senate I hope he sinks into a spiral of self-hating depression that will end with him being found half-dead in a sleazy motel room, stroking the cock of a tweaked-out Ted Haggard while Mark Foley and two of his boy-toys take turns pounding his uptight asshole raw.
OFFENSIVE POLITICAL RANT DONE. THANK YOU.
Ahhh…that felt GOOD. Anyways, here are some rare Erasure b-sides. Play them on your iPod when you vote today. I’ll have some more great Erasure tracks tomorrow or early Thursday.

What you don’t seem to understand is that the civil rights movement did not win over the opposition by insults, accusations, and hate against their opponents. Partly the reason why anti-gay marriage intiatives are succeeding right and left in most states of the union, is due to attitudes like yours. You think you are helping your cause? You are not. What you’ve written says more about yourself than the man you denigrate. What your movement needs is a Martin Luther King. Perhaps some sympathy might come your way. The way you have chosen will motivate those who disagree to take a stand — which is exactly what they are doing. Thank God. Keep it up, man!!!
I never said I was helping the cause – I just felt like venting. It’s my blog and I’ll rant if I want to!
I applaud your frustration. The problem I have been having with the right (uber right) is that they don’t want to participate in a dialogue. They have their ideas and ideals and do NOT want to hear anything in opposition. This has happened 3 times in the last week and all with young republican women. And I am in HOLLYWOOD!!
Santorum and the like have been preaching the politics of hate and bullying, name calling (“Dingy Harry” and “San Francisco values” immeiately come to mind) but are incredibly defensive when someone says they don’t like them.
