Lockstep Homophobes
By Thomas JeffreyArticle Posted: Thursday May 18, 2006
Making good on their promise to completely squander this summer’s legislative calendar on nothing more than petty political pandering, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted along party lines this afternoon to send to the floor of the US Senate a Constitutional amendment banning gay marriage. The measure is set to be voted on next month during the week of June 5 and is not expected to pass.
The proposed amendment was approved 10-8, with the Committee’s chairman, Arlen “Single Bullet Theory” Spector, stating that he is “totally opposed” to the measure, but still felt that it needed to be debated, yet again, by members of the Congress.
Today’s move follows last week’s ruling by a Georgia judge that overturned the state’s voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage. 76% of that state’s homophobic voters approved the measure last November, and Governor Sonny Perdue is now threatening to convene a special legislative session unless the Georgia State Supreme Court acts soon to put the law back in place.
Have these clowns nothing better to do?
