Please allow me to post this rant in the Lounge.

[Bertha Venation]

The members of the Maryland House of Delegates who voted against the validity of my life can suck my dick.

/rant

No, not /rant. Rant on. I can't believe it. The bill -- marriage for gay couples -- had been expected to pass. But the fucking religious idiot bigoted ignorant assholes managed to screw us. Unbelievable.

Suck my dick. Every one of you bastards.

1. Confused.

So "validity of life" and gay marriage were in the same bill....?

[Bertha Venation]

4. just a little overblown rhetoric

If I don't have the right to marry, I am a second-class citizen.

2. I saw a comment they had sent it back to the committee.

:wtf:

I thought the house of delegates was a slam dunk.

[Bertha Venation]

5. I thought so, too.

7. Egads! According to the Baltimore Sun, the bill is dead for the year.
