Thank GOD someone is looking out for the safety of my marriage

[rolanni]

Those who have been playing along at home will recall that Maine recently allowed as how gay people are human, too, and ought to be able to partake of all the rights and responsibilities attendant to that state. This, of course, brought a whole buncha Right Thinking People out of the woodwork in opposition, and from countries as far away as New Jersey and Colorado.

The Right Thinking People have raised just oodles of money in defense of my marriage, which I don't recall EVER asking them to defend. It's a good marriage; it has its twitters and tangles, like anyybody's marriage, but it's not endangered or threatened in any way. Especially not by other people getting married.

But, I digress. This article talks about the various fund raising efforts of the Right Thinking People and Those Other People and it comes to light that, along with funds flowing in-state from Planet Jersey and the nice folks at Focus on the Family, $100,000 has been donated by...

...wait for it...

...deep breath...

No, deeper...

The Portland Roman Catholic Diocese.

So, Momma Church is paying taxes now, is she?

Just remember what happened with the "bottle bill" -- lotsa outside money poured into defeating bottle deposits, Maine voters got turned off by the ad campaign, we still pay deposits on drink bottles . . .
