Dear Virginia,
You are dumb. I'm not surprised. All the card-carrying dykes, faggots, trannies, queers, lezzies, queens and other untermenschen in NoVA couldn't stop the marriage act from steamrollering through.
But in your zeal to make it hard for those nasty gays, you've made it hard for... just about anyone else whose parents and siblings are nowhere to be found and whose only visitors in hospital might be closer-than-blood friends. You've made it hard for single heterosexuals who need to list shared incomes to rent a better, safer place to live. You have tripped over your own feet and peppered them with buckshot. It would amuse the hell out of me if I wasn't so scared by you.
Yay bravo.
We'll take the House and Senate, though, thanks.

This is why I always made it clear which area of Virginia I was from.

NORTHERN Virginia. *grins* I have stopped being that obnoxious about it now, really. It's just at times like this, when Virginia passes something utterly ridiculous, that I try to blame everyone else. (And it is a different culture and a different political climate. *clings to dreams*)
