Banging on

No pun intended. It seems as if I've developed an obsession with all things homosexual - 2 posts in one week? Anyway, 18 men arrested for acts of sodomy. Speaking of which the BBC World Service has just broadcast a 2-part documentary on homosexuality laws in different countries. The first part is set in Jamaica, where the act of "buggery" is illegal, and the second is set in South Africa, where homosexuals are allowed to marry. Homosexuality is still a huge issue, as can be seen from the US Democratic candidates so called gay debate.

The Youtube election

The run-up to next year's US presidential elections is proving to be ridiculously entertaining. There's been talk of this being the "Youtube election", with CNN and Youtube teaming up for a presidential debate. Personally, I'm in love with the spoof music videos, Obama Girl, Obama Girl vs Giuliani Girl, McCain Mama, and Hott4Hill. Obama Girl was the original, and the others followed suit. Barely Political are the genius outfit behind some of the videos.
