I think we're going to find out in coming years exactly how thin skinned they can get in the left's pursuit of uniformity of opinion and political correctness.

Saddam's novels always got rave reviews, too. ;)

"Thou Shalt Not Criticize Brokeback Mountain"

They should have named it "Pokeback Mountain", or,
Brownback Mountain, or
Blowback Mountain, or,
Screwjack Mountain, or
Blisterpak Mountain

any others ?

Read a review in the Colorado Springs paper last week on Brokeback Mountain. The reviewer gave it a rave review and implied that those who chose not to see the movie, because of the content, were narrow minded homophobes. I choose not to see movies for many reasons, I'm not particularly interested in seeing two male sheepherders making meaningful glances at one another & pinching one another's butt, this doesn't make me a homophobe. Same philosophy applies when I visit a bookstore, if I'm interested in a title I'll buy it, if not, I won't.

Bareback Mountain

Baaaah Mountain

Bruce back Mountin

Buttcrack Mountin

Here's a news flash to this moron. I'm no homophobe. But I have no desire to say a gay movie. And the more liberal idiots like this call anyone who disagrees with them homophobes, the more likely I am to side with the homophobes. Capice?

Related story? The Box-Office Massacre, Part 2 :

If you were a making a movie about this year’s box-office performance, you might call it “The Big Chill 2.” Box-office revenue in the U.S is expected to decline by a little more than 5%, to $8.9 billion, according to Exhibitor Relations, a company that tracks box office receipts.

I hear the soundtrack has a 'modified' version of Tammy Wynette's hit song... “Stand Behind Your Man”.
