Charging that the traditional definition of marriage is “discriminatory,

Take it up with God, Nadler.

Laws discriminate by definition. We can keep going and declare that the law discriminates against pedophiles, too.

I’ve always found that married women tend to discriminate against going on dates with me. Apparently it’s not my fault.

Nadler should concentrate on banning his waistline.

Right. Or what about people that want to marry their dog. I’m sure there are more than a few out there. What about men that want to marry their daughters, women their sons, etc., etc., etc.

It seems there’s no limit on the depravity that we are supposed to allow because someone might be offended or discriminated against.

A September 15 statement from Rep. Nadler’s office characterized the legislation as one of the United States’ “most discriminatory laws,”...

Actually, one of the most discriminatory laws is the one that says a person needs to be at least 18 years of age to vote. There's really no way to get around that. At least homosexuals have the option of marrying somebody of the opposite sex if they truly want to get married.

In its place, Rep. Nadler and 91 co-sponsors have proposed a “Respect for Marriage Act.”

LOL! Right.

If you think about any requirement long enough, you can argue that it discriminates against x or y group.

Height standards for flight attendants discriminate against short people. Age requirements for the military discriminate by age. Ability to lift ___ pounds requirements for custodial jobs discriminate against women and older folks.

People could get over themselves and realize how lucky they are just to have the good fortune to be Americans.
