Evening all.
Y'know who I can't stand? Those #!#@$%$ loonies at the Family Research Council. Their argument against same-sex marriage? It will lead to marriage rights for polygamists and other groups of people "and things." Yes, the bimbo (speaking on Lou Dobbs' show) actually said, "and things." Well, last time I checked, polygamists weren't drawing a million people to march on Washington, as gays did in 1993 (I was there) and 2000. The last time I checked, 2-out-of-3 Americans knew someone---a family member, co-worker, or friend---who is gay, but I don't know anyone who knows anyone...even second-hand, or third-hand or fourth-hand...who is a polygamist. And the last time I checked, there were over a million children being raised in same-sex households. Polygamists? Your guess is as good as mine. Anyway, we're talking gay marriage. Let the polygamists fight their own damn battles. They have nothing---NOTHING---to do with us.
Which is a really long way of saying...enjoy tonight's encore of Cheers and Jeers, and be sure to get in on the poll, which has drawn a record number of voters in the 2½ month history of this column.
