Brides with beards will blush in Cambridge, MA tonight at 12:01AM. That’s because the Massachusetts state supreme court dusted off a long-hidden section of the Constitution and discovered that the Founding Fathers actually intended all along for onanists to marry.
We’d expect as much from the most liberal state supreme court in the nation. And we’d expect the liberals in Washington and Massachusetts to obfuscate and deceive just long enough for Adam and Steve to trade nuptials. But we hold out a special strain of anger toward alleged “federalist” like George Will who told us one state could never tell the others what to do on this issue, we don’t need a constitutional amendment, there’s nothing to worry about. These people are more stupid than conservative. We hope they enjoy their white wine spritzers with Barney Frank tonight. As for us, we stick by our position on the issue as expressed in our video, 'These Guys'
But hey! What’s the big deal? According to the New York Times even religious whackos who, like, go to church and stuff don’t really care. Meanwhile, the gay community is positively twitterpated! Why spoil all the fun?
There’s nothing to worry about, anyway. President George W. Bush opposes gay marriage. And so does John Kerry, although he did have a private sit down with gay groups, to give then the ole’ wink and nudge. We would have liked to have been a fly on that wall!
Obviously, we're not being serious. It's become clear that neither candidate for president is interested in doing anything about this issue. In fact, we believe the Bush administration has about as much credibility on gay marriage issues as, say, Rosie O'Donnell.
At the risk of sounding over dramatic, tonight’s ... ahem ... ceremony will mark the biggest culture war defeat for the side of good since the US Supreme Court said killing an unborn baby was a matter of “privacy.”
Lied to by liberals. Sold out by conservatives. As usual, we the people will have to do all the work.
I do agree with some of your sentiments. I was looking for a place to vent out my outrage over the atrocity in Massachusetts. I read your article and realized that I am not as angry as you are. However, my anger is focused on one thing right now. I don't need to expound right now on other areas. Thanks for the forum though. Keep the faith!
