Let’s create a board game and name it, “Referendum”. With just one roll of the dice, rights could be stripped away, NOM-skulls could land in a prized square, a “Family Values” Republican could go down in flames, or an “activist judge” could be appointed to the bench. Oh! You landed on a slippery slope! Guess it’s bestiality for you! Put that sheep down! Roll the dice, win a beauty pageant. Roll the dice, your crown gets taken away! Slippery slope, oh!, polygamy, who knew? Roll the dice, the Bishops and priests line up to form a wall, ohhhh, another scandal! Get out of Jail free card. Procure property in Iowa and marry your partner, oh! Nom-skulls show up dressed as Pilgrims breathing fire and beating their sanctimonious breasts on your lawn. When is this game going to be over? Sincerely, 1EqualityUSA

Can’t you just see Maggie Gallagher during the Salem witch trials, standing in judgement over some victim du jour with her long sleeved, walnut juice dyed, black Pilgrim’s dress, save the white collar and cuffs? Her puritanical expression, worn loosely over too tight facial muscles, is a face that has appeared to many throughout the centuries only now, she is the one donning the face of the unmerciful inquisitor. Those who felt it was their calling to burn witches in Salem were so convinced that what they were doing was correct and in line with God’s wishes. Little did they know it was a fungus growing in the wheat that caused these “devilish” seizures. The religious hysteria that ensued, due to these ergot poisonings, lead to the deaths of many, in the name of God, of course. For all the pain she’s caused, for all of the slanderous accusations of bestialitypolygamypedophilianecrophiliaburglary and any other negatives conjured up to supplement their weak case against our community, she and her brood will be held accountable. Both gay and straight people need to stand up to these hypocrites. Today gays are the target, tomorrow it’s whomever else is deemed, “undesirable”.

I’d figure allowing gay marriage would actually lower the rates of various mental/emotional breakdowns, since it’s got to be a major source of frustration for gay people that they can’t marry, and having that weight off their shoulders would make life a lot easier to bear.

Any studies on the subject?

Will look forward to seeing that.

Once my blog is fixed later on today, I’ll post the one and only video of me protesting Perkins and his ilk that was captured by News Channel 13. :-)

From Black Books:

Manny: I thought you were gay.

Bernard: I thought so too, until I learned about the prohibitive hygiene standards and ALL THAT DANCING.

Thank goodness committed gay couples can marry in Iowa.

If they just lived together, they’d be “living in sin”.

From the meepmeep Office of Inconsistently Implemented & Poorly Executed Policy: It is our intention to always link to the story of the late Lori Klausutis, wherever the name of Mr. Joe Scarborough comes up in conversation.

See here, here, and here on the tragic and incompletely told story of Ms. Klausutis. Google search results on her name here.

Presidential candidate Joe Scarborough? Hmm, I’m intrigued about the possibilities that would entail…
