Gay Marriage in New York. Or not. Well, maybe…..

Gay marriage may be coming to the state of New York:

Democratic Gov. Eliot Spitzer, following through on a campaign pledge, unveiled a bill Friday to legalize gay marriage in New York.

Or not. Spitzer introduced the bill knowing full well that it would never be introduced into law:

“I do not think there is a realistic shot that it gets passed…”

How outrageous! Gay rights lobbyists were on hand to denounce Spitzer for playing politics with their fundamental human rights. Or not:

“Today is a watershed moment in our community’s struggle to win the freedom to marry in New York,” said Alan Van Capelle, executive director of the Empire State Pride Agenda, New York’s largest homosexual rights advocacy group.

And that concludes another episode of Ridiculous Politicians and Lobbyists Maneuvering Over Ridiculous Issues.

Meanwhile: Gay hobbits can’t get married in Middle Earth(!).
