This has been around a time or two but it gets increasingly relevant as the far right seeks Constitutional change to dictate for once and for all that marriage is between A man and A woman ONLY. What obtuse posturing!
The Republican Defense of Marriage in practical application looks more like a War on Marriage. This isn't creative fiction--It's all a matter of public record:
Ronald Reagan - divorced the mother of two of his children to marry Nancy Reagan who bore him a daughter 7 months after the marriage.
Bob Dole - divorced the mother of his child, who had nursed him through the long recovery from his war wounds.
Newt Gingrich - divorced his wife who was dying of cancer
Dick Armey - House Majority Leader - divorced
Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas - divorced
Gov. John Engler of Michigan - divorced
Gov. Pete Wilson of California - divorced
George Will - divorced
Sen. Lauch Faircloth - divorced
Rush limbaugh - Rush and his current wife Marta have six marriages and four
divorces between them.
Rep. Bob Barr of Georgia - Not yet 50 years old, Barr has been married three times. He had the audacity to author and push the "Defense of Marriage Act." (The current joke making the rounds on Capitol Hill is "Bob Barr...WHICH marriage are you defending?!?)
Sen. Alfonse D'Amato of New York - divorced 3 X's
Sen. John Warner of Virginia - once married to Liz Taylor.
Gov. George Allen of Virginia - divorced
Henry Kissinger - divorced
Rep. Helen Chenoweth of Idaho - divorced
Sen. John McCain of Arizonia - divorced
Rep. John Kasich of Ohio - divorced
Rep. Susan Molinari of New York (Republican National Convention Keynote Speaker) - divorced
Don't let homosexuals destroy marriage
That's the job of heterosexual Republicans
