Last Call

Hopper and Frere-Jones have both made "enough already" noises here and here, respectively. I wash my hands of this debate until photos emerge in a couple months of a smiling Stephin Merritt wearing a confederate soldier's uniform on the set of "Gods and Generals," in which case don't come after me, because my point was that they lacked the evidence and arguments to substantiate their claims and insinuations, not that Merritt is or is not actually a racist.

Although I'm kind of worried. Did you know that track five of the German printing of "Get Lost" was called "You and Me and the Moon and Our Racist Biker Gang"?
