In Shocking Move, GOP Speaker Transfers Marriage Bill To More Favorable Committee

Marriage is often considered the union of two people who find each other suitable and attractive on many different levels. If one person doesn’t like the other, chances are good there will be no marriage. That’s what dating is all about — finding someone you like who likes you.

Sometimes, matchmakers get involved.

In times past, there were professional matchmakers — think “Fiddler on the Roof,” for example. Today, there are a myriad of websites that supposedly do the same thing: find the right match.

In Indiana, the Republican Speaker of the House apparently fancies himself an old-time matchmaker, and he’s desperately trying to marry off his least-attractive “offspring”: an bill to ban same-sex marriage in the state constitution.
