Okay, so it’s only on an interim basis. But still, imagine an openly gay/lesbian presidential candidate actually winning a US primary, let alone the actual election. You’d have a better chance running as a non-Christian. And as this election made clear, it’s practically illegal to run for office unless you’ve accepted Jesus Christ as yrrunning mate Saviour.

I can’t help but be impressed by that.
Looking forward to Rush Limbaugh’s jokes about Hell freezing over (because gay people will burn in Hell, and it’s Iceland, see?).
Lesbians on ice,
