					<description>I didn't realize that this was 1965.  While we're at it, let's make gay people drink at separate water fountains than us.  After all, we don't want them to be able to have the same everyday rights as us.  What if it makes our water taste bad?!</description>

					<description>while we're at it, let's prevent menopausal women and infertile men from marrying!  and let's introduce an amendment that would prevent interracial marriage!  let's celebrate britney spear's quickie, and encourage poor people to get married to share their love and misery in the legally binding sense so that if they could never seek a divorce because they won't be able to afford one!</description>

					<description>It's a good thing that our country is in such wonderful financial and political shape that we can get up in arms about this stuff, isn't it?

Oh, wait...

Thank heavens for your blog. I feel like I'm a little less alone in this world.</description>

					<description>Fifty years from now, Republican politicians will be making teary-eyed speeches on the birthdays of deceased gay rights leaders.  Couldn't we just skip the unpleasant intervening stuff, and cut to the chase?</description>

					<description>I am sorry that your marriage is deteriorating because of all this.  On the bright side, there are still things that you get exclusive rights to.  Like sports.  It doesn't matter how good you are at your respective sport, you will never be taken seriously if you are gay.  But that is probably because our uniforms are accessorized perfectly, and it distracts the other players...</description>

					<description>Plus, in sports you get to smack other guys' butts and hut a lot and huddle together whispering stuff and be tight ends and wide receivers.

Er, wait a minute....</description>

					<description>Excellent writing. I visited only because of the name of your blog, and to my amazement, I found I enjoyed the taste of your specially cooked sarcastic fantastic blog souffle.</description>

					<description>"&lt;i&gt;(except in the case of Michael and little, tiny Matt)&lt;/i&gt;"

Okay, first, before the rotten tomatoes come flying:
1) I love fanatical apathy.
2) I thought this was funny (although not as funny as the first time -- which I also read &#038; loved)
3) IMO, gay marriage is THE MOST IMPORTANT moral issue of our time and opposition is not only unjustified but simply stupid.

Still, and I can only say this with the same gentle tone of polite criticism that the Bush Administration uses for government contractors that overcharge the American public billions of dollars or staffers who leak top secret information to columnists, the quote above is a little much.  &lt;b&gt;If&lt;/b&gt; Michael is guilty of child-molestation, then A) that's not all that funny and B) it has no relevancy in a piece (even a parody piece) about homosexuality.

Alright, I said it.  Bring on the tomatoes.</description>
