Here's Culture Club drummer Jon Moss, quoted by the AP today:

"Think of the diversity in our band—a Jew, a black person, an English person from Essex, and a Catholic homosexual. That was Culture Club."

Here's former Secretary of the Interior James Watt, describing his staff at the height of Culture Club's popularity:

"I have a black, a woman, two Jews, and a cripple. And we have talent."

Watt was forced from office. Culture Club won a Grammy. I think I speak for the whole blogosphere when I scream, Media bias!
