Georgia GOP Chairwoman: Straights Will Pretend To Be Gay!

By Susie Madrak

Nope, not an April Fool's joke -- although you could say that this is one holiday the Republican party celebrates every day of the year. From the Marietta (GA) Journal, via Joe My God, the state GOP chairwoman's bizarre theory that people will pretend to be gay in order to get health care benefits. (Maybe we could just, you know, give everybody benefits?)

1. Why when they can do that already? n/t

[BeeBee]

2. Let me see if I understand this....

If gay people are able to get married, straight people are going to pretend to be gay so they can get married and get benefits, right? But... but... but... they can already marry someone of the opposite sex just for benefits. If they were going to do it why would they wait and then pretend to be gay?

Oh, the stupidity burns.

3. Can I pretend to be married and collect all the benefits of a couple?

[Erose999]

4. Because straight people would never marry for benefits or greencards or anything like that. I swear,

I'm embarrassed to admit I'm from Georgia because of mouthbreathers like that. They've ruined this state, for sure.

7. She think movies like this:

Are based in truth.

but then again, A lot of the GOP seems to think fiction is truth.
