Contrary to the sweetness and light with which New Hampshire Gov. John Lynch tried to portray, last week, the additional language he wanted the state legislature to add to a gay marriage bill, was actually gay marriage lite, as I noted.
And, not just me.
Yesterday, the New Hampshire House saw through Lynch’s bigoted ruse and rejected it. The state senate OKed it, though, by a narrow margin, so it’s off to conference committee.
Lynch, meanwhile, is now claiming that Connecticut and Vermont have even more “protective” standards in their gay-marriage laws, which is bullshit.
So, that all said, who’s gonna blink first? I hope the gov/state senate.
If Lynch really believes his claims, he’s an idiot. If he doesn’t, he’s a panderer of the highest order.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
