How to Save Straight Marriage -- Humor Alert!!
Edited on Thu Mar-04-04 04:04 PM by greatauntoftriplets
Connie Rice Commentary from the Tavis Smiley show on NPR.

March 2, 2004 -- Rice's other peoposed laws or constitutional amendments, inspired by President (sic) Bush's proposed amendment outlawing gay marriage:

10. Fair Housework & Childcare Act -- Requires married men to do at least half of the housework and child rearing duties, or face being charged with a class-C felony.

9. 'Til Death Do Us Part Amendment -- Outlaw divorce. Heretosexuals get divorced at the drop of a hat. It's the 50 percent divorce rate in the United States that's the mortal thread to marriage, not gays and lesbians.

8. Scarlet Letter Amendment -- All divorced persons will have a scarlet "D" tattooed on their foreheads, which can be removed only upon permanent re-marriage to their original spouse.
