Texas Rep Lady Ain’t About To Let No Full-Of-Itself ‘Supreme Court’ Gay Marry Texas

Texas Rep Lady Ain’t About To Let No Full-Of-Itself ‘Supreme Court’ Gay Marry Texas


image:
Try to get yer gay marriage past this, motherfucker, PEW PEW PEW!

If Texas state Rep. Molly White gets her way, newly minted Texas GOP chair Tom Mechler won’t have to worry about homos kissin’ in the newspaper or any of that other gay stuff, for Molly has A Solution, and as you see above, she’s got a gun. As David Badash at the New Civil Rights Movement reports, Molly is still in her second month of even BEING a Big Girl State Representative, but she has already Solved Texas. For one thing, she’s come up with a bill that says even if the United States Supreme Court gifts gay marriage to a hungry nation, Texas need not comply, because Texas.



Yes, Molly is standing athwart Texas’s virgin throat, ready to stop any hot, gay cramming Justices Ginsburg and Kennedy may have in mind, by god. Her bill, HB2555, specifically says that it applies “regardless of whether a federal court ruling or other federal law provides that prohibition against the creation or recognition of a same-sex marriage or a civil union is not permitted under the United States Constitution.”

In other words, it is a bill that manages to, in three lines, say both “I know you are but what is Texas?” and “Texas’s marriage ban does TOO apply, regardless of what y’all full-o’-yourself fancy britches-wearin’ elites in Washington say!” Badash points out that it’s near impossible this sort of law would get signed, even by the crazy wingnut Texas Governor Greg Abbott, because federal laws DO win out over dumb little local laws like the one Molly has in mind.

. . . . . .



Why, oh why, is our very favorite “Molly” from Texas, the one who got yr Wonkette interested in politics in the first damn place, not around to write about this new cropdusting of Texans? Can we get The Lord on the phone to please get to some resurrectin’, due to He would probably agree that Molly Ivins really needs to SEE THIS SHIT?

Why does she need a T to prop the gun on to shoot it? What is that wimpy ass bullshit? There are several things wrong with her stance in that picture too. She's not gonna fire that weapon and not get hurt, not the way she is going about it. On second thought, let her go ahead pull the trigger. She'll look like Barney Fife after he shot his foot and won't be able to hit anyone.

She can kiss my gay ass, if she can manage to do it without needing some kind of crutch to prop on first.
