Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS) on Wednesday told straight couples that God was the third person in your marriage.
In an hourlong session on the House floor, Huelskamp was joined by Reps. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), Ted Yoho (R-FL), and others to celebrate so-called Marriage Week opposing equal rights for LGBT people.
And so those who are listening, Huelskamp said as the hour came to a close. Whether youre fathers or mothers or looking at that, recognize that even though society, even though Hollywood will tell us its all about you, its not! Its all about someone else. Its all about that child.
This is National Marriage Week, this is a time in our nation, not only to talk about marriage, talk about its impacts, talk about how its loss has hurt our society, he continued. At the end of the day, its all about how important marriage is. Marriage predates government.

sick, demented, deluded, ignorant, and evil-minded human beings.
They have a promising career ahead of them in a nation like Russia.
