What Happens when you drink too much Republican Kool-Aid

So desperate was Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, to explain last week how gay marriage threatens us all that he tried some smear tactics on a thicker-shelled species. "It does not affect your daily life very much if your neighbor marries a box turtle," Cornyn said.

"But that does not mean it is right. Now you must raise your children up in a world where that union of man and box turtle is on the same legal footing as man and wife." Scary stuff.

Santorum, "I would argue that the future of our country hangs in the balance because the future of marriage hangs in the balance. Isn't that the ultimate homeland security, standing up and defending marriage?"

"Jan Schakowsky told me about a recent visit she had made to the White House with a congressional delegation. On her way out, she said, President Bush noticed her 'Obama' button. 'He jumped back, almost literally,' she said. 'And I knew what he was thinking. So I reassured him it was Obama, with a 'b.' And I explained who he was. The President said, 'Well, I don't know him.' So I just said, 'You will.'" That's right - Our Great Leader actually thinks that Democrats are walking around Washington DC wearing "Osama" buttons!
