How Safe Marriage Must Feel, With Guardians Like These

This week, some Republican Senators reintroduced the Federal Marriage Amendment, which, of course, "protects" the institution by making it illegal for gay couples to marry. But check out who's sponsoring it:

But the funny part is looking over the list of the 10 original sponsors. Most of the names are predictable — Brownback and Inhofe, for example — but there are two others whose names stand out: Sens. David Vitter (R-La.) and Larry Craig (R-Idaho).

Yes, two of the principal sponsors of a constitutional amendment to “protect” marriage include one far-right Republican who hired prostitutes and another far-right Republican who was arrested for soliciting gay sex an airport men’s room.

Via TPM.
