Ain't there a song about that?

Lost In the Woods
Looks as if 90's folk singer Michelle Shocked can't find her way.
In the annals of the Most Disastrous Shows Ever, there is a new entry. Folk-rock singer Michelle Shocked had the plug pulled on her concert Sunday night after launching into an anti-gay-marriage speech that led most of the audience to walk out.
Did we mention that her fans largely lean well to the left, thanks to the liberal politics that previously infused much of her music, and that the gig where she chose to come out (so to speak) as an Old Testament-citing preacher on homosexual issues was in the heart of San Francisco?
Click the link to read the rest. Shocked made one really good, popular album, and then wandered into the forest of leftist politics, even joining Code Pink for a while. Now it seems that, trying to find her way out, she stumbled into the area where Westboro Baptist Church finds its inspiration. I hope that she finds her way out.
I'd link a few of her tunes, but it looks as if she doesn't want any of them on YouTube.

Yer LOL of the Day
Charlie Sheen shows the way:
Yesterday, Charlie Sheen dropped a slur against gays at the opening of a bar in Cabo San Lucas; the opening was also attended by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, who was not too busy with his city’s massive budget deficit to party with the ex-Two and a Half Men star. Grabbing a mic, Sheen blasted away: “How we doing? … Lying bunch of f****t a**holes, how we doing?”
Now Sheen has tried to joke away the incident. Asked by TMZ about the slur, Sheen said, “I meant no ill will and intended to hurt no one and I apologize if I offended anyone. I meant to say maggot but I have a lisp.”
That could work in debates over race, too:
I meant to say "neighbor" but I have a lisp.
