The "I'm not sh*tting you" news of the day. Here are two guys who should have hung their hypocritical heads in shame after embarrassing their party, but they just can't help themselves - they hate TEH GAYZ that much. (PageOneQ):

    Two United States Senators implicated in extramarital sexual activity have named themselves as co-sponsors of S. J. RES. 43, dubbed the Marriage Protection Amendment. If ratified, the bill would amend the United States Constitution to state that marriage "shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman."  Sen. Larry Craig (R-ID), who was arrested June 11, 2007 on charges of lewd conduct in a Minneapolis airport terminal, is co-sponsoring the amendment along with Sen. David Vitter (R-LA).

Hard times when real news is impossible to tell from the Onion.

Really, could you think of two WORSE people to do this, one Mister Wide-Stance and the other the diaper wearing hooker using guy?  Is there a way that people would take is less seriously?

I can hardly believe this is for real. Sure it wasn't on The Onion?!! So lewd conduct. He was getting, or giving, a bj in the airport toilet? And the Vitter guy is saying marriage is between a woman, a man and a hooker? WTF!

only if he gets to be the one wearing the diaper.

And for those who are not up on this story, very funny by the way....  google Vitter and prostitution and let the laugh-riot begin.

I have to admit, tekla, sometimes I think you go full-bore too long on a point. But most of the time, your points are good, direct and funny as hell when they are about politicos. :laugh:

Hugs,

So, is it okay to marry a hooker or not?  If so, can someone loan me a lot of cash?

Thanks.  I try.

Maybe we read the article wrong and Vitter and Craig just want a law to prevent them from marrying each other.
