Bush Pushing for Amendment on Marriage

My God. This has me craving some real news, something that will take the spotlight off this insanity.

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins will appear Monday June 5th at 7am EST on ABC's "Good Morning America" to speak at length about the Senate vote on the Marriage Protection Amendment. Please tune in to see how this issue impacts your family and all Values Voters across the United States.

(Pray for some huge breaking news that will preempt this asshole.)

Where are the rational voices from the other side of the aisle? Here we go again with the "liberal media" basically giving free advertising to a nutjob.

More rubbish from the
FRC website:


This Sunday is Marriage Protection Sunday, as the Senate will consider the Federal Marriage Protection Act this coming week. At this critical time, the Church must provide the leadership needed to motivate Americans to make their voices heard. Under IRS regulations Churches are permitted to discuss the Amendment plainly. We have posted a variety of materials that can be used or sent onto your pastor for this special Sunday.

The New York Times today covered the story "Bush Backs Amendment Banning Gay Marriage" and there's a lovely quote from Master Fearmonger himself, Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council:

"Why not put energy into something that's vital for our society and our country?"

Taken out of context, I would have to agree with him 100%. But trying to put discrimination and bigotry into our constitution is a foolishly misguided endeavor. That should send cold chills down the spine of any true patriotic American.

By the way, when I pulled up the article at the NYT website, it was not the same one as the print edition and the paragraph from which I pulled this quote was not there.

These crazy homo-obsessed bigots need to be challenged.
