Vermont Allows Gay Marriage!
So what? So Vermont’s left-wing legislature over rode a veto by the governor? What is that little bastion of socialism going to do next, allow women to own real estate?
But it is important. Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa and (all-to-briefly) California all had gay marriage legalized by the courts.
After Iowa’s Supreme Court declared their state’s ban on gay marriage unconstitutional, Tony Perkins, the president of the conservative Family Research Council, issued a statement saying that same-sex marriage "continues to be a movement driven by a liberal judicial elite determined to destroy not only the institution of marriage, but democracy as well."
Damn, I’m way more dangerous than I thought. If Richard and I were to get married, democracy would crumble? Or maybe we can crush the meaning of marriage. Or maybe…
I know. Over-inflated ego.
I know. Bending the quote to meet my personal agenda.
Whatever. Way to go Vermont!
