As of Thursday, the New Hampshire House of Representatives eeked out an approval for a bill that would allow same-sex marriage in their state…onto the Senate. One of the reasons it passed the House? Melanie Levesque, an African-American women who spoke passionately about the importance of challenging convention…after all, only 40 years ago, “convention” would have prevented her from marrying her husband, who is white.
Of course, the other reason why it may have passed is the RIDICULOUS argument of the other side. Want to hear a quote? It was too good to pass up. According to the Nashuatelegraph, Republican John Cebrowski said this:
“A peanut butter and jelly sandwich can’t be anything but peanut butter and jelly….Creamy peanut butter and crunchy peanut butter can never, ever be a PBJ.’’
….So we’re basing laws on sandwiches?
