On the newly legal Iowa Gay Marriage: (and really, Iowa? Really?)
Read the article first, just to get your own take, then come back to the following.
From CNN "Same-sex weddings, heartland style"
The quote is CNN's, the parenthesis's mine:
Many activists who followed the Iowa case, Varnum v. Brien, to the state's Supreme Court were anticipating the April 3 announcement.
But for Beau Fodor, (Buttfor Bofodor? What's a Buttfor? Answers may vary.) news of the decision on television that morning -- "between 'Martha Stewart' and 'The View,' " (but after Christopher Lowell and before American Gladiators, with picture-in-picturing mens gymnastics and Tivo-ing his "stories" ) he said -- came as a complete shock.
"How did this happen?" the Des Moines designer and event planner remembers thinking before turning the station to compare newscasts. "Are you kidding me, universe?" (Stop it, you silly universe, stop teasing me)
And then, while resisting (unsuccessfully) the urge to pinch himself, the revelation: "Oh my god. (OMG!!!!) I could be a gay wedding planner." (Umm, I'm pretty sure you already are, Nancy-Beau. I'm sure you already are)

Seriously Iowa? Did they know what they was a votin' on? I've met lots of people from Iowa, and "progressive" is not the first thing that comes to mind.
And by-the-by, if you have any pull at all with the elders of the, association for advancement of the gay, could you see what they can do about shutting Perez Hilton's cakehole! He's making it kind of hard, trying to get the redneck, cousin dating, airboat driven', homophobes of the world to get on board with "They're just normal people, who would just like to be treated as equally shitty as the rest of us". Perez is making a case for "some gay bashing is O.K.". Lord, I apologize for that last line.
