Hezbollah, Are You Listening?

The House of Representatives debate yesterday on same-sex marriage is full of our representatives claiming full knowledge of God's plan. I especially like Rep. Phil Gingrey who claims stopping same-sex marriage helps us in the Middle East.
Gingrey, the floor leader/gynecologist, posited that the debate was "about values and how this great country represents them to the world." After the vote, he elaborated: "This is probably the best message we can give to the Middle East in regards to the trouble we are having over there right now."

So that was it: The marriage debate wasn't about amending the Constitution; it was about quieting Hezbollah.
