As a Proud Member of the Polygamist Lobby, I am Appauled
In response to this senate speech I wrote the following letter to Senator Inhofe (R-OK) today.
Senator Inhofe,
I follow our Senate's activities closely and am APPALLED that instead of working on issues important to our nation you instead choose to waste the time of the people with hateful and poorly crafted rhetoric. Allow me to quote:
"The homosexual marriage lobby, as well as the polygamist lobby, shares the goal of essentially breaking down all State-regulated marriage requirements to just one: consent. In doing so, they are paving the way for legal protection of such repugnant practices as: homosexual marriage, unrestricted sexual conduct between adults and children, group marriage, incest, and bestiality."Can you not see that drawing a link between homosexuality and practices such as pedophilia, incest, and bestiality is not only completely illogical but nothing more than a third-rate, sophomoric rhetorical scare-tactic?
Later you assert, "That is really what this is all about--marriage is between a man and a woman," and share scripture from The Good Book to assert your point. In truth, however, there is plenty of precedent for Biblical support of polygamy which as you say is one of the many "repugnant" practices you choose to waste our country's time with in the Senate chamber.
As a man who on more than one occasion has asserted his sharp tact to the Lord's Path, I urge you to consider II Sam. 5:13, I Kings 11:3, & II Chron 11:21.
However please keep your response out of capital hill, there are more important things to be doing with our time.
Although I'm not one of your constituents, health care and the affordability thereof for small business owners and private citizens would rate at the very top of my list. Polls of the good people of Oklahoma seem to resonate with my opinion.
Respectfully yours,
Jordan Husney

I wonder how many milliseconds it will take an office intern to throw away? I bet they won't even up to the word, "APPALLED" before they hit delete. I am thinking it will occur someplace around "Senate's activities..."
