A Plea For Tolerance (With One Major Condition)

The Infinonypinion on gay marriage changed 180 degrees the moment it was explained convincingly that same-sex marriage would not be mandatory. With that point clarified, what is the problem? If optional same-sex marriage would constitute any threat to tab A-slot B marriage (or, as some say, "opposite marriage"), it would be far behind David Vitter, John Ensign, Chip Pickering, Newt Gingrich, Karl Rove, Mark Sanford and hundreds of other sanctimonious hypocrites on any list.

For that reason, when the Pennsylvania Senate conducts a vote (expected to occur tomorrow, Tuesday) on a proposal to embed bigotry in the Commonwealth's constitution, the only thing that would justify a "yes" vote would be a successful, last-minute push by radicals to switch same-sex marriage from "optional" to "mandatory."

This is nothing to joke about. I suggest you leave this issue to more responsible Pittsburgh Bloggers.

Perfectly fine post in my opinion, Infin.
