Better Job Than I Did

My entry from a couple of days ago, Public Sphere, explored what I was thinking about the 10 Commandments controversy in Alabama. Lark News has a terrific satire of that situation. It doesn’t address the central issue in the Alabama controversy (separation of church and state vs. freedom of expression for a state employee) and in that way sets up a straw man, but I think the caricature of the Christian courthouse demonstrators is pretty good. I don’t think the caricature is an accurate representation of the demonstrators, but it makes its humorous point by picking all the right features to exagerate.
