Would you want to run your fingers through Mitt's apparently-greasy hair? His hair is shiny in a greasy way, not in a healthy way.

Better than George Washington's hair, I guess. And he probably has much better teeth as well. (The better to bite you with!) But Romney ain't no George Washington. Please do not vote for Mitt's hair.

This is something I have been wondering about for some time, ever since gay marriage and/or civil unions were legalized in some states or countries: I read once in a legal reference source that a marriage that is legally contracted in one jurisdiction must be recognized in another. Now, this was before same-sex marriage had become a legal possibility, so presumably this was understood to pertain to situations such as a couple having been married in India at the age of 13, or marriage between first cousins, which is legal in the UK and in some US states but not others (like New York). Therefore a married couple who are first cousins do not have their marriage declared invalid in New York, and by the same reasoning, even if a couple, same-sex or otherwise, couldn't GET married in New York, they could still BE married in New York.

And Rick Santorum... so cute! Too bad they are both such scary conservatives. Al Gore and John Edwards aren't too hard on the eyes either. Anyway, my point is, people might not be so extroverted about it, but male politician's appearances are important.

The scary thing is that this guy does look presidential. Tall, dark, and good features, and his wife ain't bad either (she's no Mrs. McCain, but she'll do).

If liberals want to stop this train in its tracks, they need to start talking about Mormonism. They need to make it clear to the American people that this guy believes there was a prophet after Jesus Christ. I don't think that will sit well with many.

Certainly not those that wear crosses around their necks.

And don't get me started on the practice of baptisms for the dead that they do with children. Yes, they baptize people without their permission. Oh, and they use children to do it.

And how many levels of heaven are there? Three? And when were blacks allowed to enter the highest--twenty, thirty years ago?

Really, I have nothing against Mormons, they frighten me equally as any other organized religion. But I think it is time to show how different their fundamental religious beliefs are from mainstream America.

I don't know why we're not talking more about his beliefs. Clinton has to talk about hers (as a woman); Obama has to talk about his (as a biracial man), etc. Why doesn't this guy have to explain to America what his religion believes?

but up!

They're grabbing the queers will make your Christian daughters worship Satan and become pregnant by crack addicted Muslim goats, handle. And they're yanking that handle for everything it's worth. And please, Republican voters have perfected the art of forgetting what their favorite gay bashing hatemonger said last week that might contradict them.

Nope. Inter-state reciprocity is part of marriage law, but nothing forces a state to recognize a marriage conducted elsewhere that is illegal or extralegal. Marriage is a state thing, not a federal thing.

So no--a same-sex couple can't get married in MA and be married in NY. (And that couple needs to be MA residents to be married at all.)

Don't forget those magic underpants. All religion is bullshit, but Mormonism takes it to another level.
