Rick Perry sends mass e-mail condemning same-sex marriage
http://advocate.com/news_detail_ektid20014.asp

Texas governor Rick Perry has reached out to 10,000 Texans by e-mail asking for their support of a state constitutional amendment that would define marriage as the union of a man and a woman. In turn, an anti-amendment group sent out 10,000 mailers to Democrats accusing Perry and fellow Republicans of attacking gay and lesbian families.

Perry's e-mail, sent out on Tuesday, read: "That marriage is the union between a man and a woman is a truth known to each one of us already, and any attempt to allow same-sex marriages is a detriment to the family unit and hurts our state and nation."

The Texas Marriage Alliance relayed the e-mail through its Web site, which was started this year in support of Proposition 2, the measure that would amend the state constitution.

2. Rick believes that same-sex relationships should be extra-marital.

4. To Perry, men are like goats
OK for sex, but you don't want to marry one.
