A BUZZFLASH GUEST CONTRIBUTION
by Margaret Cho
BuzzFlash Note: Last week BuzzFlash had the pleasure to see Margaret Cho's new show, Assassin (see full calendar of shows). We've been selling her DVD of Revolution and expected a good show, but it was great. As the Chicago Tribune review of that night's show said, "
a more aggressive political bent than in past shows... scorched the right without toning down her naughty nature."
Margaret sent us an excerpt of the show to share with BuzzFlash Readers and an MP3 from the show about her conversation with Howard Stern. Enjoy, and see the show when it comes to your town.

An excerpt from her show:
If you laugh your ass off to Will and Grace but are against same sex marriage, f*ck you. You can't take the benefits of our culture and leave behind the burden of inequaltiy. That's like when white people stole rock and roll from black people in the 50's. 'I love that song but please don't use that drinking fountain.'"
These Christian Family groups are so anti-Christian. They're without compassion, charity and kindness. I want Jesus to come back and say, "That's not what I meant." But they sure are busy. They're always boycotting Harry Potter then going to bomb an abortion clinic. They're so busy. I want to ask them, "Shouldn't you be preparing for the Rapture? Aren't you supposed to be leaving soon?"
It's not that the conservatives hate gays, it's that they know there's a huge family oriented Christian population who do hate gays enough to vote Republican if they can appeal enough to their homophobia. So, they sidle up to these Bible thumping, cousin humping, monster truck enthusiasts and they get them all riled up and send them in to a mullet fantasia about how gays are going to move in to their neighborhoods. As if we would ever live in a trailer park.

I have Cho's CD Revolution (from buzzflash) and hope Assassin will be made into a CD, cause I'd buy it.
