A good goat will do that...


....

The title of this post is inspired by an old joke, but the post is brought about by an analogy in an entry of The Economist's Democracy in America blog entitled Extreme stupidity. The subject of their post is the ridiculous jockeying of our politicos to assign & avoid culpability or connection in the sad and horrific murder at the Holocaust Museum this week.

People this far out on the fringe are probably rather like the neighbour who turns out to have a powerful sexual attraction to goats: It is not helpful to inquire into the goats' gender in order to determine whether the fellow is "gay" or "straight"; his orientation is decidedly "other".
