If this hadn’t been published on Saturday I’d swear it was an April Fool’s gag:
Sue Everhart, chairwoman of the Georgia Republican Party, told the Marietta Daily Journal
in a story published Saturday that once gay nuptials are legally
permitted, there will be nothing to stop a straight person from
exploiting the system in order to claim marital benefits.“You may be as straight as an arrow, and you may have a friend that
is as straight as an arrow,” Everhart said. “Say you had a great job
with the government where you had this wonderful health plan. I mean,
what would prohibit you from saying that you’re gay, and y’all get
married and still live as separate, but you get all the benefits? I just
see so much abuse in this it’s unreal. I believe a husband and a wife
should be a man and a woman, the benefits should be for a man and a
woman. There is no way that this is about equality. To me, it’s all
about a free ride.”
Uh, uh, uh, why wouldn’t they fake traditional marriage instead? I guess catching teh gay gives you a fraudster virus or some such shit…
