The most important legal issue facing our country: sodomy

Everyone's dying to know what Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers thinks about sodomy.

But on some far-right websites, details about Miers's background, much of it apparently mischaracterized, continued to fuel activist anger.

Webloggers seized on a 1998 report to the American Bar Association's rules and calendar committee that included recommendations for developing policy on an International Criminal Court and removing prohibitions to same-sex adoptions.

ABA officials have stressed that Miers's role in passing on the report was purely administrative, but a weblog called Pro Life News nevertheless called Miers ''Bush's Pro-Sodomite nominee."

Another weblog brouhaha erupted over Miers's support for equal civil rights for gays, when she ran for city council in 1989.

In the same campaign, however, Miers also said that she opposed the repeal of the state's law that made sodomy a criminal offense.

You're for sodomy! No I'm not, you are! Oh yeah, I'm rubber and you're glue and everything you say bounces off me and sticks to you, you big ol' Sodomite! [runs away sobbing]
