Melissa Etheridge Might Have The Right Idea
Since Prop 8 passed in California, Melissa Etheridge's marriage to Tammy Lynn Michaels isn't really a marriage anymore in the legal sense. I guess? Right? Well, Melissa will protest the ban on gay marriage by not paying state taxes! Melissa wrote on The Daily Beast about her plan:
Okay. So Prop 8 passed. Alright, I get it. 51% of you think that I am a second class citizen. Alright then. So my wife, uh I mean, roommate? Girlfriend? Special lady friend? You are gonna have to help me here because I am not sure what to call her now. Anyways, she and I are not allowed the same right under the state constitution as any other citizen. Okay, so I am taking that to mean I do not have to pay my state taxes because I am not a full citizen. I mean that would just be wrong, to make someone pay taxes and not give them the same rights, sounds sort of like that taxation without representation thing from the history books.Okay, cool I don't mean to get too personal here but there is a lot I can do with the extra half a million dollars that I will be keeping instead of handing it over to the state of California. Oh, and I am sure Ellen will be a little excited to keep her bazillion bucks that she pays in taxes too. Wow, come to think of it, there are quite a few of us fortunate gay folks that will be having some extra cash this year. What recession? We're gay! I am sure there will be a little box on the tax forms now single, married, divorced, gay, check here if you are gay, yeah, that's not so bad. Of course all of the waiters and hairdressers and UPS worker
Hmmm....no state taxes in California? CA already has In-N-Out and now the gays don't have to pay taxes! Woo hoo! Grab my dildo collection, pa, I'm going out west!
Think of all the things I can buy with my extra dough from not paying state taxes. I can buy more discontinued Mother's Animal Cookies, I can eat In-N-Out all day, I can even go to Disneyland like once (that shit ain't cheap)! Fuck. All of us can go to T.G.I. Friday's and the Mudslides will be on me! It'll be a 24-hour party!
That's until the IRS comes to kill my fun and take me away in handcuffs. When I start screaming, "Melissa Etheridge told me I didn't have to pay taxes," they'll just nod their heads and shuttle me off to prison. Oh well. At least you can bring me warm Hot Pockets during visiting days. You'll owe me for all those cocktails I bought you! And I'm sure I can be someone's wife in the clink!

No can do Nit. James Haven and Mel had a falling out years ago. Happened about 10 years ago. We were at a Halloween party. Masquerade. James Haven was a Playboy Bunny, Mel was a Plummer. Well after a few Pina Colada's James Haven was feeling no pain. James Haven and Mel laughed, danced and bobbed for apples. As we slowed danced she whispered: That ain't a wrench in my pocket, I'm just happy to see you.
When midnight came and we had to unveil, we were horrified for we both thought the other was a woman!
Mel ripped James Haven's bunny ears off and stuck his head in the punch bowl. Til this day, James Haven can't drink punch without having an anxiety attack!
*******************
*GASPS* That bitch. No worries. My sister is in the Home Depot hierachy of California. She will feel the sting of douching James Haven's mouth with punch! Oh, and yes, I say unto thee, as one who has faith in all that is Home Depot. She will pay..She WILL pay!

She does make excellent points but when the taxman comes a knockin' none of that is going to matter to Uncle Sam. I'm in US History right now and we are kidding ourselves if we think that politicans have changed (for the better.) They still speak for themselves rather than the people and have the same elitist attitude. Politicans relatively make up only a small percentage of the US population but they hold the power because they still see "we the people" as inept and ignorant.
Although, when people still bash others on race and sexual orientation, it makes you wonder if they are far off on the majority of the people.
Ahhh of course

Sock-Monkey - please don't bite me, darlin', but Alannah Myles sang "Black Velvet". Canuck. I have dryer sheets - which aroma would you like?
Ainsley - you've got to admit that the "Doris" Day thing was fun - hey, I signed the petition.
jussaying - 9:44 - Word (Sorry, however, for those of you on here who really want children but are unable to have them. That sucks.)
Provolone - don't come to Canada. We're all left wingers and homosexuals and our toilets flush in the same direction as yours. Thanks.

I just want to be a fly on the wall, when all these "religious folk" walk through those pearly gates and tell Jesus (or whatever entity they pray to), "Yes! I denied other's in your name. I spoke hatred and wished others less than I had on your behalf. Aren't you proud of me? I did it all in Your Holiest of Names." Then he smacks them on their forheads and they stumble back and say, "Wow! I shoulda' had a V-8."

No, I keed, I keed...
Look, if you want to marry your 18 year old 2nd cousin, many states allow that, so we are negotitating over a few years AND only a few years ago in many states, perfectly legal to marry at 14....Society EVOLVES. We now allow children to be children. Why can't we allow consenting ADULTS the CONSTITUTIONAL right to enter into a MARRIAGE CONTRACT. You want to make marriage more than a legal binding contract, then fine, knock yourself out, but UNDER THE LAW that's ALL IT IS. Under the law, where is gay marriage unconstitional? Hmmmm?
