Dear Republican liar

ssurgulYes, it's a theme, and no I don't really care. :)
This is in response to Rich Anderson's little speech to the Iowa State House as shown on MSNBC's The Last Word.
Gay Marriage stalwart
Rich,
I'm thrilled to see someone like you standing up for the 'reality' of marriage. That it isn't really about love, it's about procreation, exclusively. I can hardly wait to see you prosecuting this ideology of yours and passing amendments in Iowa's Constitution in order to prohibit any marriages that don't generate offspring within 2 or 3 years, or whatever acceptable time frame is going to be your new standard of decency. After all, if a woman can't make a kid because of some physiological condition that she has no control over, she definitely doesn't deserve any sort of interpersonal security on her own. And if a man has a low sperm count, or some other limitation to his own ability to generate children, then he should join those infertile women on a government tracking list to prohibit them from getting married ever unless they can prove a medical procedure has cured the problem.
And since the Republican platform for the entire Gay Marriage debate is that marriage is one of the founding pillars of America, it's clear that gays are really just second class citizens, not really due equal rights. Good for you! It takes a real Christian to stand up and demand that their neighbors and fellow citizens give up equal citizenship just because their private life makes you uncomfortable. Now if that's not the unconditional love that Christ directly said needed to be shown, I have no idea what is. It takes a modern, real Evangelical Christian to stand up and demand that the world understand that only their interpretation of the Bible's parables, stories and words are the right viewpoint.
And now we see the truth about Republicans, and again I must thank you for showing us the light on this. There would necessarily have to be a massive data infrastructure in place to track those that aren't able to procreate. After all, it wouldn't do for someone to go get married in another state and then to move into Iowa now would it. The state might have to contend with all the contract law obligations that are also part of modern marriage. Hence, the states combined would have to track infertility much like sex offenders. Potential marriage partners would have to be informed, and have a single point of information with which to ferret out those villains of modern society that aren't wanting marriage for kids but rather to confirm a relationship with someone that they might actually love. So, we can see that there must naturally be huge amounts of government oversight and control just to ensure this doesn't stain the freedoms and liberties of the First Class Citizenry: heterosexuals that can make dozens of kids even if they can't afford them or would make horrifyingly bad parents because they're raised by people like you.
One day, I honestly pray for the Apocalypse to occur so your precious and much-vaunted God will arrive, inform all your ilk of the deep errors of your ways, and you'll be taken off this planet and sent to your hell to atone for your lies and worse. Then the rest of us left behind will be able to have a calm, reasonable, sedate planet without the scourge of Organized Religion destroying what could have been one of the most civilized and vibrant cultures on Earth.
Sincerely,
Marcus Hamilton
