Sieze them! Burn them!

Our elected representatives (alright, Scotland's elected representatives) are targeting their time on the issues that matter most in a country already ravaged by the effects of the recession: yes, the Hokey Cokey. The same political establishment which welcomes with open arms IRA commanders elected to Parliament wants to ban a song which lightly mocks the latin mass.

It is difficult to say what this illustrates most: the petty, insane obsessions of modern progressive liberalism or the overbearing dominance of the modern state. Still, it's all lucrative work for the MPs, MSPs and all their hangers on, so it can't be that bad. Idle hands, and all that.
