It concerns the same incident as the post below, so there is some repeat.
Los Angeles Air Force Base celebrated Diversity Day on Aug. 8. One of the acts was a drag band.
When asked “WTF?” by Fox News, base PR person Peggy Hodge said:
“Drag acts to this day represent the struggle for freedom and equality of the LGBT community, while at the same time providing a deep-rooted historical form of entertainment for the LGBT culture.”
Comments at www.thisainthell.us jumped all over the “deep-rooted historical form of entertainment” with questions of whether “Diversity Day” also included black-face acts. I guess those questions were for the descendents of Caucasian Vaudeville Performers, but whatever.
I wondered if Diversity Day had:
“Hello. My na’ Jose Jiminez an’ I gon inter-duce a ban of men dress’ like women.”
Or:
“Vat, you don’ like da zoot? Vat’s vrong vit it? Nothin’, that’s what. Fits like a glove.”
Or:
“Say, whatsamattah you? You see dos’ men dress’ like wimmin? Hey, they kinda pretty, huh.”
Or:
“Lord a’mercy I ain’t nevah seen nothin’ like that in all my born’d days. Lands, my momma be rollin over in her grave she even think somethin’ like this evah happen.”
