The sixth Democrat, Rep. Norm Dicks of Bremerton, voted for the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)that defined marriage as between a woman and a man.

Still will never top the all-time greatest headline about the upcoming game between Arkansas and South Carolina:

“Nutt Replaces Dick with Johnson Against Cocks.”

My favorite congressional committee of all time was the 1996 committee tasked with investigating Chinese military advancement. Headed by Chris Cox and Norm Dix, the Cox & Dicks Report ROCKED!!!

There was a good one in The Michigan Daily when Gary Peters lost the Michigan Attorney General election to Michael Cox.

Headline: “Cox inches out Peters”

“Unfortunate” headline?

Heck, I bet the writer’s pool drew straws to see who would have the privilege of working with *this* material!

Good thing Normie was present or the headline would be ‘Democrats favor repeal of gay-marriage ban with Dicks out.’
