Young Conservatives of Texas At It Again

The YCT at the University of Texas at Austin have a nativity scene depicting Joseph and "Gary" in order to show the extreme leftist views of the ACLU. The connection is tenuous, at best.

From their website:

"We've got Gary and Joseph instead of Mary and Joseph in order to symbolize ACLU support for homosexual marriage, and of course there isn't a Jesus in the manger," said Chairman Tony McDonald. "The three Wise Men are Lenin, Marx, and Stalin because the founders of the ACLU were strident supporters of Soviet style Communism. The whole scene is a tongue-in-cheek way of showing the many ways that the ACLU and the far left are out of touch with the values of mainstream America."

WTF? Where are we all of the sudden, Tyler or something? And no one told me?

I love the Pelosi face in the angel, it's cute. As for Gary and Joseph...I'd hit it. [Towleroad]

How about a contest to see who can photoshop the best nativity using Texas politicians. I dare you. Email us and we'll post them.

Let's see if I understand their point: The far left is out of touch with mainstream America? Okay, I get it now. At first I thought maybe a group of trust-fund kids desecrating a religious scene and using it for crass (and inaccurate) partisan politics would be the ones out of touch.

*sigh*

YCT has a long history of attention seeking behavior. Honestly, half the time I can't tell the YCT members from the drag-worms fresh out of Austin State Hospital.

How do you parody something that is a parody of itself?

You seriously think people in Tyler's Azela District would stand for something like this? *Unless it is cast in 24 karat gold*

Good thing the ACLU worked hard to ensure free speech rights for students on campus, or YCT might not even have been allowed to put on this display.

was ever a YC who laid claim to being smart?
