The Word of the Lord must be legislated as Oregon public policy....

Measure 36 - Arguments in Favor: For the completely uninitiated: Oregon has a fairly low percentage of signatures needed to put a referendum on a ballot paper. The minority of militant "Christian" "Right" loopers can therefore mobilise their churches to get stuff like Measure 36 on the ballot. Measure 36 reads as follows:
AMENDS CONSTITUTION: ONLY MARRIAGE BETWEEN ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN IS VALID OR LEGALLY RECOGNIZED AS MARRIAGE
Dennis Moore is not only named after a Monty Python character, he is bordering on genius. He writes arguments for stuff. I thought his work in the Oregon 2000 Votors' Pamphlet was good. This, on the other hand, is fantastic. He takes lunatic fringe bullshit like Measure 36 and argues in favour - with hilarious results. Read his work and laugh like a drain. And if Dennis Moore offends you - well, I wouldn't read your blog either.

What a guy.

Oh, and make sure you catch the one near the end. Cracking.
