Republican Values: Gay Marriage=Bad. Gay Prostitution=Good
Posted by Jill | 7:04 AM

This is hardly a surprise, but the House Judiciary Committee voted yesterday against adopting a resolution demanding that Bush agencies turn over all credentialing information related to Gannonguckert. In one of the most preposterous statements of reality creation in an Administration that gets more preposterous on this front daily, Sen. James Sensenbrenner (R-Moral Relativism) said he felt that "the Administration, in my opinion, has substantially investigated this matter.

Just for the record, for those who want to write to excoriate or thank their Congresscritters, here's how the vote went down.

So the logical conclusion is that morality depends on with what political party you're affiliated, and how much you worship Jesus H. Bush. If you're a Republican and you believe Bush is God, you can pretty much do what you want, even if you're gay. But if you're a heathen Democrat, you can want to pledge undying devotion to your partner, pledge to be faithful from this day forward and raise a family, you're a moral degenerate.

Can someone tell me in what kind of universe this sort of thinking would make sense?
