The Anti-Sam Brownback Blog

In a move surprising no one, and outraging every non-bigoted person in the country, Senator Brownback has declared that the federal government should take a hard line against gay rights in Washington DC. He was quoted in the Washington Post as saying:

“I have been and continue to be a strong believer and protector of traditional marriage. I think it’s an important issue for society and for the country,” Brownback said. “This issue has now been moving across the country for several years, and I guess we will deal with something in D.C. now.”

So Mr. “I hate gays but try to be like Jesus” Senator, how exactly are you going to “deal with” this issue in DC? The article points out that DC ranks second only to San Francisco in the number of gay couples living together. The district voted for for John Kerry at the tune of 90 percent! It would seem as though the community is likely to support the right for married gay couples to jointly file their income taxes.

The mayor of DC certainly has a feeling what could happen if the district recognizes the Massachusetts marriage:

The mayor explained his reticence, saying he is “very — extremely — concerned” about the reaction by Congress, where “I think that a lot would be in jeopardy, yes.”

He cited the District’s $8 billion budget, which requires annual approval by Congress and which city officials have tried in recent years to rid of such controversial social issues as amendments barring its spending of tax dollars on free drug-needle exchange programs and statehood lobbying.

It truly is sad when Brownback believes it is his right to force his misguided morals of hatred and bigotry on people who haven’t even elected him. Heck, they don’t have any real representation anyway.

I think this is a good example of the way the country would be run if heaven forbid Brownback was to become president. As I have said before, there is no place he would rather be than in your bedroom, seated on a high throne of infinite wisdom, dictating to a consenting couple which sexual acts he considers appropriate and thus legal.
