perfidy

Here's a bit of analysis of the proposed FMA.

"Conservatives" say that this is nothing more than an attempt to ensure that states don't have to recognize gay marriages performed in other states. In other words, they want to be able to continue to discriminate against whoever they feel is the target group of the week.

Next time somebody says it, ask if Vermont can stop recognizing straight marriages performed between sufficiently close-minded religious conservatives from, say, Alabama.

Yeah, I didn't think so.

If a marriage from Vermont isn't recognized in Alabama, I'd say that ex-Alabamans in Vermont might want to consider their legal position carefully.

It's a great example of what I call "telling other people what to do with their lives" hypocrisy.
