That was for any Lobotobots who may be reading. An early Christmas present is we were right about everything – namely that Obama is corrupt, unqualified, misogynist and homophobic.

Permission does not come form Rick Warren or the patriarchal pastorate. Civil Unions are bogus BTW. So are the claims that I can pay huge fees to an attorney and carry a satchel full of legal papers with me at all times that are generally ignored. Who in the hell else lives that way. Now in all truthiness, how many of you married folks keep your marriage license, your children birth certificates and/or adoption papers on your person to produce in case of an emergency at all times? I can imagine the outcry if there was an emergency with your child or spouse and you could not see them or make any decisions for them until you produced your papers.
