Doggedly searching for the crux of the biscuit.
Take it away, Michael Thelemann:
''I'm just somebody who is getting up there in years, and I'm looking for a born-again, God-fearing virgin between the ages of 12 and 24 who can bear me children,'' said Thelemann. ''What's the problem? I just think I have some wicked neighbors."
After removing his sign offering (a whopping) $1000 for a virgin bride between 12 and 24, he's put up another - sans the age restrictions - that further clarifies that "pig-worshipping, heathen, white-supremacists" need not apply.
You have to be clear about these things.
TrackBackA true manly man, especially in Oklahoma, would not take down his sign just because neighbors complained to the cops. Wimp.
I wish he'd put it back up so we could have a civil liberties argument.

Posted by: Paul at April 24, 2006 10:56 AMWhat a sucker! I got my 13-year-old virgin bride for $460, and some landscaping jobs for her dad!
I set it up on eBay, of course, which did give me an advantage.
Posted by: Daniel Morgan at April 24, 2006 11:54 AM"Pig-worshipping" must be, in his own mind at least, a term of art. Sort of like heteronormativity, maybe it makes sense and describes something real once you know what he means by it. And it's interesting that despite his repellant specifications, white supremacists come in for abomination.
