(Reuters) - U.S. Democratic Representative Barney Frank wed his longtime partner, James Ready, on Saturday, becoming the first sitting congressman to enter into a same-sex marriage.

Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick officiated the ceremony and added some levity by saying Frank, 72, and Ready, 42, had vowed to love each other through Democratic and Republican administrations alike, and even through appearances on Fox News, according to Al Green, a Democratic congressman from Texas.

"Barney was beaming," said Green, who attended the ceremony. He added that Frank, a champion of gay rights and the sweeping reform of Wall Street, shed a tear during the ceremony.

After exchanging their vows, Frank and Ready embraced each other, Green said. "It was no different than any other wedding I've attended when you have two people who are in love with each other," Green said.

Agreed.

Homosexuality is no less a deviance/perversion than pedophilia, bestialty, compulsive cross-dressing, serial rape, you name it.

It just happens to be one whose “consensual acceptance” has been forced down our throats, so to speak. Worse still than its “acceptance” is its glorification by nihilistic politicians and celebrities, the media, the left in general—the usual suspects in other words.

I just threw up a little bit. The sodomite agenda in it’s brief moment of fame. It may be time to leave the country... the judgement may not be far away. God is not mocked, His word stands true. Read the words of Genesis 18 & 19. Things have not changed much. And our president ( with a little ‘p’) condones and celebrates this. (Sigh)

“It was no different than any other wedding I’ve attended when you have two people who are in love with each other,” Green said.”
.
Except that the groom and groom had no sexual complementarity—not any that’s natural anyway.
.
Bet the honeymoon’ll be different than most weddings he’s attended...

"the first sitting congressman to enter into a same-sex 'marriage'. "

I wonder if he'll be a sitting congressman tomorrow?

I agree that Ready is the guy that can say yes with a round mouth.

Anyone who believes that a reasonably handsome man who is 30 years younger than he would “fall in love” with Barney Frank is seriously deluded.

Sick, sick, sick.

So, did they meet in a public restroom or perhaps a bathhouse?

I wonder if Frank offered to push the guests stool in for them.

I wonder if James Ready knows Barney is a homosexual?

That's some serious constipation.

Not yet, we are under the age of grace. His Wrath is coming.

The Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah, destroying the buildings, the people, and all the vegetation in the plain.

That's what he thinks of homosexuality! Anyone think God is for romney or obama? Evil is against God.

But God took away HIS own from S&D before he destroyed it. Lot/family. He always takes care of His own.
