Well, I called the White House comment line and said the following (more or less): The marriage spending bill is one of the most assenine proposals yet to come out of this Administration.

You took the words out of my mouth! This is truly asinine. They want to spend the better part of $2 billion to try and talk people into getting married when more than half of marriages end in divorce. This is subsidizing divorce lawyers and the divorce industry.

And who decides what a "healthy marriage" is? Seems to me we are very close to having gay marriage nationally. Well then, are we going to spend billions to teach faggots how to get along better?

I was about to ping you to see what you think... Bush should know better. The root problems with the marriage problem can't be solved with money. Once again lawyers will be laughing all the way to the bank.
