Our favorite Weekly Standard writer — actually, the only one we really like — Matt LaBash goes on tour with Christian metal-rap group the Junkyard Prophets, “saggy pants Elijahs.” They’re a cranky bunch — not just anti-gay and anti-sex, but anti-Bush, to boot: “Homeland plus security / Equals nothing but democratic slavery.” And then there are the post-concert fundamentalist straight talk assemblies, in, yes, public schools: “He talks about how the media bend over backwards to promote the gay agenda, and how preposterous it is that it is unlawful to pick flowers in state parks, but that it’s legal to abort babies every day in this country.” LaBash, raised among folks “who put the ‘duh’ in fundamentalism,” thinks that’s just great, no violation of the first amendment at all. Such inanity, however, occupies a relatively small portion of this profile of an absurd and fascinating outfit.
