marry me... whatever you are I have gay friends who considered leaving this country because George Bush was re-elected hits to Canada’s web sites for immigration skyrocketed after the election results came in and I thought, hey, a president may have some problems, but that’s no reason to desert your home but they were sure after this election that same-sex partner rights would never be granted to them I mean, when one person is ill and in the hospital the other has no rights to be there for them and I thought, if Bush was trying to appeal to a vast majority of people, he’d be good for everyone, right? I even heard Bush say that rights should be given to same-sex partners, even if they don’t call it “marriage” and I thought, well, it might sound rude, buy he’s gotta respect the red-neck back-ass country folk in this country too and they only believe in man and woman marriages while screwing the animals at the farm but at least he was going to give same-sex couples rights, that’s a good sign, isn’t it? but then I heard that Republicans want to make a constitutional amendment defining marriage they wanted to define something that is not the governemtn’s business (then again, they make enough laws now that overstep the bounds of any rational government already) Then fourteen states made laws defining marriage as only between a man and a woman okay, I’m beginning to see why some of my friends are worried All rights reserved.
