Want to make the Republicans totally
freak out?
Make Tammy Baldwin the president pro
tempore of the Senate.
Remind the nation that if tragedy
strikes, and Obama, Biden and Boehner all die, we will have the first gay
president.
Or rather, the first openly gay
president. The jury is still out on James Buchanan.
Can you imagine Sean and Rush and
Michelle Bachmann and Pat Robertson and the Westboro boys, faced with the
prospect of a gay president?
Better yet? Win the House back in
2014 and appoint Kyrsten Sinema Speaker – a bisexual woman two heartbeats away
from the Oval Office. And then have her marry Baldwin on the Senate floor.
Because we know gay people give
Republicans the heebie jeebies. One of our greatest pleasures was watching
Republicans screw themselves into the ceiling any time Barney Frank dared to
speak out on anything. This seventy-year-old gay Jew chatting amiably about his
boyfriend. Ewww! Cooties!
