The Borowitz Report reports that “Embattled Republicans [Tom Delay and Bill Frist] Seek Legal Protection as Gay Married Couple”:
Holding hands on the steps of the Capitol, Sen. Frist and Rep. DeLay denied that there were any ulterior motives for their stunning decision to wed.
“Let our critics say what they want,” Rep. DeLay said. “Bill and I have never been more in love.”
But before reporters could question the two smitten lawmakers, Sen. Frist added, “And as a gay married couple, we expect to be protected from harassment by the government, including prosecution for conspiracy and investigation of insider stock sales.”
Rep. DeLay, seemingly fighting back tears, concurred: “We refuse to be attacked by those who won’t accept our love.”
I can’t type any of this without laughing… 🙂
