It's occurred to us cats that being gay is so trendy now — witness last night's Tony awards, for the latest example — that it's in danger of becoming passe. All this before the Supreme Court hands down its decision on marriage equality nationwide.
But Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is not waiting. He's already (pardon the expression) "come out" against same-sex marriage and has called for a Constitutional amendment banning it.
We cats think this is great. In fact, it's exactly the move we hoped that leading Republicans would make. Why? Because marriage equality is supported by most clear-thinking Americans, and the latest polls affirm that. If the Republican Party wants to be outside the mainstream on this issue, we couldn't be happier.
So, Scotty — and the rest of the intolerant GOP field — have at it! We Democrats can't wait to welcome all the voters you're alienating with your hateful, narrow views.
P.S.: These most recent polls are especially satisfying in the wake of the brutal weekend that the Biden family just spent. Why? Because Joe Biden set the stage for the Obama Administration's embrace of marriage equality — and because the idiotic Westboro Baptist Church jackasses just got chased in Wilmington by 100 or so pro-Biden demonstrators, who believed that their beloved fellow Delawareans deserved space to grieve.
It's ancillary to the fact that the Westboro hatemongering has fallen completely out of favor with America, but we cats love that fact nevertheless. And we PURR.
