n a bizarre story involving Facebook “friends,” a Washington man has been charged with bigamy after the social media site revealed he had married two woman.

CBS News reported April 16 that 41-year-old Alan L. O'Neill, a Washington state corrections officer, married a woman in 2001, separated from her eight years later, then changed his name and remarried another woman.

The two wives revealed O’Neill’s deception when they looked into the fact they had both shown up as “friends” of their husband’s Facebook profile.

"Wife No. 1 went to wife No. 2's page and saw a picture of her and her husband with a wedding cake," Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist told the Associated Press today.

Under the liberal game plan, this is all “A-OK”...as long as the consenting adults “love each other.”

Solution: He must declare that he is a Muslim.

Obamadork’s buttboy Holder will then look the other way - as they always do with the muzzies.

The 19th-century sailors who had a wife in every port never had to face this issue.

Marriage should be redefined — One wife is too restrictive for many men. Some men just have more love to give to more than just ONE woman. What on earth do people have against one man loving two women (do I need to add that that is all sarcasm)

It seems that he failed to follow through on the divorce papaers. It doesn't appear that he was trying to live with both of them at the same time.

LOL. If you are seeing two women — or are married to two women — its probably a good idea to not have them both as Facebook friends, especially if you have pictures of yourself with each of them at your weddings.

I’m sure some of them did. All it would take is one slip up to call a wife by her wrong name, or some other equally basic mistake to raise her suspicions.***

Granted, said wife had fewer legal protections in that period of history (protections varying in accordance with where the wife was living), but some men undoubtedly were caught.

***Though a crafty sailor might avoid that problem by only “marrying” women with the same first name.

How sexist of you, what about the woman that wants more than one husband?

While at a wedding once I asked the preacher “Why did preachers used to say ‘if there is anyone here who knows any reason why this man and woman should not be married speak now or forever hold his peace’” I was told it was for reasons of multiple wives. The preacher said it is not used anymore because that can be found out with out asking.

Well...Reverend...maybe you better ask as in the old days.

And, all those corporations who have "ponied up" to support homosexual "marriage" had better be prepared to start paying for multiple-partner benefits...I mean who are they to deny such "partnerships?" /s
