Think the Republican Right is just after the homosexuals and loose women? Think again. Predictably, they're eager to whittle away your ability to get a divorce, too:
Social conservatives have been the backbone of the Texas Republican Party in its rise to statewide dominance, and now they're ready to see their agenda enacted. Here's what they'll be pushing in the Legislature next month:
MARRIAGE
A constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage and requirements that couples receive counseling before divorcing...
Well, that's no big deal, you might say. I suppose you think their ultimate goal is just to make sure people don't accidentally get a divorce in the heat of the moment?
Slippery slopes, my friends.
So...are we ready to admit that gay marriage isn't just a gay issue yet?
