1. North Carolina House Leaders Call for Marriage Amendment

In a press conference that compared same-sex marriage to "incest" and "polygamy," Republican leaders in the North Carolina House of Representatives urged their colleagues to pass legislation that would present voters with a constitutional amendment to outlaw same-sex marriages.

The News and Observer reports on the remarks Tuesday in Raleigh by House Speaker Pro Tem Dale Folwell and House Majority Leader Paul "Skip" Stam. The leading Republicans called for the legislature to pass the constitutional amendment when it returns for a special session on September 12.

According to audio provided by On Top, Stam compared same-sex marriage to incest and polygamy when a reporter asked whether the amendment represented intrusion by the government into people’s lives.

“Well 90 percent of all laws affect people's lives, so that's an argument without any content to it,” said Stam. “We prohibit adult incest, we prohibit polygamy. What would be their answer to that? We're involved in people's lives. That's a slogan without analysis.”

2. The reporter should have asked them if they've ever participated in fornication or sodomy.

They want to bring up incest or polygamy, how about fornication or sodomy? I wonder if these pompous self-righteous bastards can claim that they have never had sex outside of marriage.. that they have never divorced, that the first time they had sex was on, or after their wedding night, and that they have never had sex with anyone else, and that all of the sex they have had with their spouse was missionary only, and every single time they have had sex with their wife (or husband) that it was for the express purpose of reproduction, and not for pleasure.

If any of these jackasses can say yes, they've got a leg to stand on with their fucking hypocritical judgmental ignorant pontificating.
