Yeah, more in the scurrilous rumour department...it's Sunday after all. So what do you think that Governor Goodhair would think of this now?
The day after the U.S. Supreme Court said it would review a Texas case that makes it illegal for homosexuals to have sex, our governor, Rick Perry, decreed that the state's 28-year-old law against "deviate sexual intercourse with another individual of the same sex" is, in Perry's words, perfectly "appropriate."
By that, Perry, a long, tall, boot-wearing Texan with a great head of hair that is the envy of Texans of all genders, did not mean that homosexual sex is appropriate.
On the contrary, Perry meant that our law -- officially and ambitiously titled as the Texas Homosexual Conduct Law -- is appropriate as it stands on our books.
Oh, right. Well it's a perfectly republican position; I'll tell you what to do, and do the opposite, because I can. If the Supremes rule against gays and the rumours are true, will they be moving the Texas governors mansion to New Mexico? Just asking.
