Teh ghays have been getting married in California for about 24 hours now and nothing - absolutely nothing - about it has affected us here in West By God Virginia.
I'm still married to Ms. Carnacki. She still took the kids to Vacation Bible School. Vacation Bible School is still going on. My tomato plants still need staked.
Nothing about teh gays getting married has affected us.
While the rightwingers have wanted to tell us the world is going to end, it hasn't. It's going to keep on spinning.
The truth is Republicans have used the issue to stir up their base, but once the public sees it doesn't change the price of gas, impact overcrowded classroom sizes or affect their lives in any way, it's not going to work as a wedge issue any more. Then the GOP will have to run on their true platform of helping the rich get richer at the expense and health of everyone else.
