John Steward just did a big piece on the upcoming DOMA Supreme-Court hearing in March. Me, Bahamute, Grizz, and Langly got to watch as the insane arguments of the republican lawyer were expertly lambasted. Such arguments as:
"Marriage should be limited to unions of a man and a woman because they alone can "produce unplanned and unintended offspring," opponents of gay marriage have told the Supreme Court. By contrast, when same-sex couples decide to have children, "substantial advance planning is required," said Paul D. Clement, a lawyer for House Republicans.
So, if you're infertile, sorry! You're marriage isn't valid either. But if you're thirteen, stupid, sexually active, and have willing parents, congratulations! You're a husband AND a father!
It's so stupid, I want to laugh. And so many people take it seriously, I want to cry.
