Anti Gay-Nup Masshole Withdraw Suit
Lawmakers Let Out A Sigh of Apathy

massflag.jpg
Now that Massachusetts lawmakers have voted to reconsider the state's pioneering gay marriage laws, VoteOnMarriage.org has graciously rescinded their $5million lawsuit. The anti-gay activist group first filed the suit after politicians called a recess last month before the vote could go through, thus stalling the controversial issue. Lawmakers fired back, calling the legal threats "frivolous", especially considering that legislative folk such as themselves cannot be sued for their motions. With this week's vote, lawyer Glen Lavy said, "Now that the Legislature has chosen to do the right thing and vote, there is no need for this lawsuit to continue." He went on to say, "That's the most obvious thing in the entire world."

The really hypocritical thing about this is they rescinded their lawsuit... but the state leg still didn't vote "up or down" on all the things the SJC said it had to. Quite clearly, they truly couldn't give a crap about their "yes or no" votes - the lying liars.
