NYT on Rove:
He said he intended to write a book, which had been encouraged by “the boss,” and eventually to teach.
"To teach". Oh, joy.
Weeee! On air misogyny. Bill O'Really is jealous he could never do that to Andrea Mackris on air.
Please, someone, get this man some help.

Which is why it would just be much easier all around to let the church marry people however they please and let a state official sign the legal documents.
Halfdan
That's how it works now.
(The religious official is usually deputized in some sense by the state in order to perform the legal function on behalf of the state. But it's a separate thing from the religious ceremony, even if it happens in close order.)
Legal recognition (and the related responsibilities and benefits) is decided by the state and federal governments.

Army Starts New Psychiatric Program
DENVER - The Army has launched a nationwide program to teach soldiers and their families how to identify signs of possible psychiatric injuries suffered in the war on terrorism that may have gone unnoticed.
The Army is responding to widespread reports that soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with mild brain damage and post-traumatic stress disorder were treated as malingerers or unfairly dismissed from the service.

'Since the U.S. invasion in 2003, when looters ransacked armories and deserting Iraqi soldiers took their rifles home, this bloodied land has been flooded by a sea of weapons fed from both the legal and illegal market.
Besides more than 700,000 rifles and other weapons arming the new Iraqi army and police, at least seven million guns are believed in the hands of civilians, including insurgents and sectarian militias, in a nation of 27 million, the Geneva-based research group Small Arms Survey reports.
More are pouring in: The Pentagon said July 26 that some 122,000 fresh weapons are in the official supply pipeline for Iraqi security forces. Many more come via black-market channels.'
He said he intended to write a book, which had been encouraged by “the boss,” and eventually to teach.

STATEMENT FROM AMBASSADOR JOSEPH WILSON ON RESIGNATION OF WHITE HOUSE DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF KARL ROVE
Washington, DC - Following the resignation of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove, Ambassador Joseph Wilson issued the following statement:
"Karl Rove's resignation signals the final chapter in the Bush administration's betrayal of the identity of a covert CIA officer. When this breach of national security occurred, the President promised the American people that anybody in his administration responsible for the leak would be removed. Rove, identified by the prosecutors as one of the leakers, not only was not summarily dismissed, but has been allowed to leave on his own terms, to praise from the President. This sordid tale of compromising national security to cover-up and distract from the false rationale for the invasion of Iraq will forever remain in history a black mark on the Bush presidency"

Why was Tweety saying this to her? I thought he saved the love for guys?
He's apparently schizo. Multiple personalities; all of them obnoxious.
I got your inconvenient truth right here
...Al Gore not only underperforms expectations, but he is one failing class away from riding the short bus to school. Gore received mostly C’s and B’s in English and French in High School. Moreover, he received a D in Natural Sciences and then got a C+ in Natural Sciences his senior year. Amazingly, those grades were sufficient for Gore to attend Harvard University. We all know, however, that his admittance had something to do with having a big-time Politician for a father. But, liberals still paint the false picture that only Republicans use their parent’s political power to get ahead.
Not surprisingly, at Harvard, Al Gore “received one D, one C-minus, two C's, two C-pluses and one B-minus, which placed him in the lower fifth of the class for the second year in a row.” So much for Harvard’s grade inflation; maybe Gore can blame his transcript on being stoned all day. At the very least he should have spent more time researching the “Little Ice Age.”
After Harvard, evidently Gore really challenged himself. He received grades of "F" in five of the eight Divinity School courses– including an "F" in a course about science and nature. Oh, and he also dropped out of Vanderbilt Law School.

From below:
Religion predates the church.
smalfish
However, that doesn't demonstrate that martriage is a religious, not civil, idea.
And marriage probably predates religion. I can only put religion back to late H erectus, wheras relative monogamy is far deeper.
So there are two issues.. one is the concept of marriage as a religious thing, the other is the depth of the respective practices.

' Gore graduated from Harvard with honors in June 1969.'
My first marriage was of the common-law variety in 1969. As I was tempted by law school in those days I looked up the statute and everything. We did get the blood test and went to the courthouse to do the license but, fuck, it was Friday afternoon and the clerk's crew had bailed early. Since the whole motivation to get married was to get two weeks vacation from the borg-bank I was working at, I just announced I was married & took off the two weeks.
Odd thing is, we had applied as a couple to the Peace Corps. In the application where it asked for the marriage data (they required one year of marriage before acceptance to keep kids from signing up as a honeymoon trip) I cited the statute.
We were accepted by the FEDS with that citation, no further questions asked about it, and did our two years in Brazil!
Divorced within a year later, but whatever.
MATTHEWS: Come on in closer. No, come in -- come in further -- come in closer. Really close.

this is just more in the sexually obsessed patter of Tweety --
he wishes he could be like Bill Clinton but his wife would leave him and she probably is the one who wipes his ass for him (and she probably is making more money now that she is a lobbyist for Marriot something the Tweets never bothers to mention)

I have never seen it that blatant, and I have worked for a lot of big borgs. The worst I ever dealt with was this guy who would stare at womens' breasts when he spoke to them. He was really obvious, too. He would be talking and just staring at your tits. Didn't matter if the woman was old, young, fat, thin, ugly, pretty, whatever ... he was obsessed by teh boobs. Finally, this fantastic woman with whom I worked had enough and said, really loud, "You can stop staring at my breasts any time now, ________" in front of a shit-load of people.
That was the end of that.
Last I heard, Rove was working on a bachelor of arts in government at the University of Texas. This happens to be the same degree I have, from the same institution.
I'd really prefer that Rove get his degree from somewhere else and in something else.

There's no reason for them not to, either. Heck, Massachusetts gave me permission to sign the legal documents for some friends of mine, and I'm not a priest, judge, Justice of the Peace, or anything else like that.
The signing is just a legal formality. If my friends had been two men or two women, we wouldn't have (at that time) even been given the papers to sign, let alone permission to sign them.

Right. There's a distinction between a birth certificate and a baptism certificate. One is entirely a function of the state and the other of the church. It'd be easier to extent rights to same-sex couples if the same were the case with marriage.

Priests don't automagically get that legal power -- such as it is -- just because they're priests.
The fact that people who aren't priests can do it makes your argument rather nonsensical. Otherwise you'd have to legally specifically prevent priests from getting that power just on the basis of their being priests ... which would be a violation of the separation of church and state.

Some of Burnett's statements were just as bizarre as Tweety's:
“A lot of people like to say, uh, scaremonger about China, right? A lot of politicians, and I know you talk about that issue all the time. I think people should be careful what they wish for on China. Ya know, if China were to revalue it’s currency or China is to start making say, toys that don’t have lead in them or food that isn’t poisonous, their costs of production are going to go up and that means prices at Wal-Mart here in the United States are going to go up too. So, I would say China is our greatest friend right now, they’re keeping prices low and they’re keeping the prices for mortgages low, too.”
