GOP Jokers

By Fester:

Wow, how will the Daily Show writers cope when they actually have to work for a living next year instead of smashing a softball like this one that Steve Benen is pitching:

Just this week, a group of Republican senators re-introduced the Federal Marriage Amendment to the Constitution, which, as we know, would ban gay marriage.....

But the funny part is looking over the list of the 10 original sponsors.... but there are two others whose names stand out: Sens. David Vitter (R-La.) and Larry Craig (R-Idaho).

Yes, two of the principal sponsors of a constitutional amendment to “protect” marriage include one far-right Republican who hired prostitutes and another far-right Republican who was arrested for soliciting gay sex an airport men’s room.

How do you respond to this besides guffawing?

More marriages are harmed by infidielty then by the fact that the couple down the street, or at your club or at the office happen to love each other and share the same items down below.  Wow, really how does one respond to this 'argument' to 'protect marriage' or at least scare up some votes.
