Same-Sex Marriage Ban Out Of Committee
A state senate committee on wasting time yesterday voted 18-8 to send the ban on same-sex marriage to the full senate. The bill will probably pass in a vote as early as tomorrow, but the AP reports it might not matter: There’s no similar bill in the house, and chances of any bill passing there are slim with Democratic control. (But, boy, wouldn’t it be interesting to see how Speaker O’Brien votes on it!) People rallied against the bill after it went out of committee. Notorious funnyman/lame duck state senator Vince Fumo noted his fellow lawmakers would also vote for genocide, bloodletting, a flat earth, Zeus and bronze tools. Pa.
