Gay people must be very different in Georgia than they are everywhere else in the world.

Being gay in Georgia must be a genetic condition that also makes you likely to cause straight people to lie to the state and cheat.

According the Republican Party Chairman in Georgia, Sue Everhart, if you allow gay couples to marry, then straight couple will pretend to be gay so that they can pretend to get married to get marriage benefits.  Seriously.

Look, this is like trying to explain Chinese algebra in French to people who speak Spanish.  I’ll just let Ms. Everhart try.

“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?

Ms. Everhart doesn’t expand on what would keep that from happening between two straight people right now.  Maybe  gay people have mind control over straight people in Georgia.  I dunno.  I mean, you gotta admit, it’s Georgia so it wouldn’t take much.

Ms. Everhart also lacks basic biology.

“Lord, I’m going to get in trouble over this, but it is not natural for two women or two men to be married,” Everhart said. “If it was natural, they would have the equipment to have a sexual relationship.”

I’m gonna venture out there and suggest that Ms. Everhart doesn’t know much about hoochy-koochy.

Ms. Everhart cautions that she does not hate the gays.  No, siree.  She doesn’t not.  But, she is a cautious woman:

“I’m not saying that we ostracize them or anything like that. I’m just saying I’m against marriage because once you get the gay marriage you get everything else.”

Like a pony?  You mean a pony?  That’s very cool.

Personally, I’ve always wanted everything else.

Thanks to Bob for the heads up.
