Maybe this'll make forget those darn weapons...

In what has to be his most pure red-herring mode, President Bush said today that "government lawyers are working on legislation that would define marriage as a union between a man and a woman." Maybe I am not paying attention, but have we in the US ever defined it as anything but? Have we gone from the pre-emptive strikes to pre-emptive legislation? Maybe W. will go down (oops! that references an "unnatural sexual act!) as the pre-emptive President.

This conservative fixation on bringing outdated morality to the people via legislation smacks of "big government." Verbal Jazz maintains that if one is opposed to homosexuality then one must avoid homosexual acts and keep from trying to enact silly legislation.
