This Just In: Prosecuting Porn Higher Priority Than Civil Rights. No One Surprised.

Unbelievable. Oh, and it's also more important than dealing with significant violent crime. See?

The new squad will divert eight agents, a supervisor and assorted support staff to gather evidence against "manufacturers and purveyors" of pornography -- not the kind exploiting children, but the kind that depicts, and is marketed to, consenting adults.

"I guess this means we've won the war on terror," said one exasperated FBI agent, speaking on condition of anonymity because poking fun at headquarters is not regarded as career-enhancing. "We must not need any more resources for espionage."

Oh, joy. But it gets even better:

...Gonzales endorses the rationale of predecessor Meese: that adult pornography is a threat to families and children. Christian conservatives, long skeptical of Gonzales, greeted the pornography initiative with what the Family Research Council called "a growing sense of confidence in our new attorney general."

Yep, welcome to the United States of Christian Conservatives. Gays, pagans, black people, poor people: please line up to the left to be shot. Oh, wait, we forgot the Messicans.
