Achtung! More European Enlightenment

-
Ah, the Germans... these are some of the people john kerry wanted to "bring to the table"... once can only assume what accoutrements they would have brought with them to the table.

This really helps sharpen the contrast between what old Europe is becoming and what America still is. We are not yet locked in on the same course as them... as long as we can keep holding the line and building the education of more normal Americans, we will never succumb to this (San Francisco excluded, of course).

[[ Berlin Mayor Under Fire For Fetish Party

The mayor, who publicly declared his homosexuality before his election in 2001, has come under fire for the official greetings in his name included in the program of the whips-and-chains festival starting Friday.

"Berlin is a tolerant and open metropolis. We are proud that people from different backgrounds and with different preferences feel comfortable here and party together... (Parties like Folsom Europe) allow the scene to present itself openly and break down skepticism and prejudice."

Bild printed advertisements for the festival featuring bare-chested men licking each others' jackboots and a man chained to a urinal and wearing leather briefs, boots and a gas mask under the heading "Perverts".

On the opposite page, the newspaper splashed a photograph from last year's party featuring a dog-collared sex slave kneeling before his leather-clad master.

"There's no question it is a flamboyant scene, but that is also Berlin. And as long as there is nothing forbidden happening, I expect tolerance," Wowereit told Bild. ]]

How could there be anything "forbidden happening," when NOTHING is forbidden?

Yep... we need to be more like these people. Absolutely.
