Gay Rites Could Elect Bush
Oregon Magazine ^ | March 5, 2004 | Larry Leonard

Portland, Oregon -- Wednesday, March 04, 2004, four of the county commissioners, all females, stood before the cameras and said that when they discovered a law was unconstitutional, it was their job to fix it.

This is what Oregon politicians actually think, and is proof that educationally-speaking, some chilluns have been left behind in this state.

These four, deciding on their own that homosexual marriage is required by the constitution, raised the flood gates, and all hell broke loose in the Beaver State's largest city. MA, NY and SF are not going to outshine PDX.

Approaching the Superintendent of Education, a former public relations flack named Castillo, will be of little use, here.

There is no evidence to indicate she knows how a constitutional republic operates. Besides, it's too late to reach those county commissioners. They're too old to learn anything true.

Most conservatives hereabouts think these women need to be de-elected. Stripped of their badges of office. Yanked by a recall hook off the political stage. Waved by-by to from the back of mail trucks full of ballots adding them to the unemployoment lines. Chucked off the podium...(snip)

Remember the Portland Four. You say you don't know their names? It doesn't matter.

Just remember that they are living proof that the liberal disregard for the rule of laws they don't like has seeped down to the very grassroots level of America.

Four liberal dames in Portland, Oregon, decide that the problem with America is that marriage is limited to the bonding of a man and a woman.

They further decide we need a basic family unit which is more flexible, and, since the legislature hasn't done it, they will do it for them.

A Holy Trinity of commissioners, plus one. The Mother, the Daughter and the Holy Ghostess wave their hands and the Wedding March is replaced by In the Navy and YMCA.. (We'll call the fourth Lamont Cranston.)...(snip)

I think it is a reference to the marriage rites that they are undergoing.
