I am fortunate that my two Senators, Debbie "Bankruptcy Bill" Stabenow and Carl "Heckuvajob Hayden" Levin, while casting their fair share of disappointing votes, will both vote against the Republican's upcoming
We Hate Gays Amendment.
But come Monday, when W. stands in the Rose Garden and declares that I am such a threat to civilization that we must amend the Constitution of the United States to allow -- no, to require every straight man, woman and child to discriminate against me -- he will have support from my so-called "representative" in Congress, Joe Knollenberg of Michigan's 9th Congressional District.
But ol' Joe doesn't come to this point of view out of ignorance. No! He knows first hand what a threat we are because his very own son, Stephen, is openly gay. So Joe knows, just like Mary Cheney, the threat that his son poses, that we all pose, to civilization itself. Of course, I'm sure W. and Daddy Knollenberg will be alright with his gay son sharing his Fabulous! interior design skills with straight people as long as he knows his place.
