Repeal of human rights fails in New Hampshire.

Last edited Thu Mar 22, 2012, 09:24 AM - Edit history (1)

In a shocking defeat, the hate fear and loathing that is the foundation of the Teapublican Party that swept into power in New Hampshire in 2010 failed to motivate the legislature sufficiently enough to repeal the state's marriage equality law.

Homophobes and religious nut jobs are packing their bags and leaving the state in anticipation of a widespread outbreak of Teh Gay, forced Man on Dog marriages, and of course God's Wrath.

And the lockstep with ALEC crowd. Rep. Mike Ball (Chmn, Manchester Republican Comittee) : "These folks are people just like you are. They just want the same things that you do. This bill needs to be put down."
Rep. Keith Murphy (R-Bedford) "How can anybody support limited government, and then, with a straight face, tell a grown adult they cannot marry another person?"
