Ethics

Dumbass Quote of the Day

By Ed Brayton

From the prom king of Wingnuttia High School, Rep. Steve King:

If there's a push for a socialist society where the foundations of individual rights and liberties are undermined and everybody is thrown together living collectively off one pot of resources earned by everyone, this is one of the goals they have to go to, same sex marriage, because it has to plow through marriage in order to get to their goal. They want public affirmation, they want access to public funds and resources.

Yes, that must explain why Jason Kuznicki, who works for the freaking Cato Institute, is part of a same-sex marriage - to bring on the socialist utopia! Has anyone ever bothered to tell King that homosexuality was outlawed in the old Soviet Union and in nearly every communist country?
