Another Conservative Waste of Time

Huffington Post:

 As promised, Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.) introduced legislation late Friday to amend the U.S. Constitution to ban gay marriage.
The bill already has 28 Republican cosponsors, none of whom are particularly surprising. But it remains to be seen whether House Republican leaders will throw any support behind it, particularly now that the Supreme Court has struck down the Defense of Marriage Act.
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) previously cosponsored a similar Federal Marriage Amendment that failed to advance in July 2006. That vote was the last time Congress has voted on such a proposal. Requests for comment from Boehner's and Cantor's offices were not returned.

Let me guess, I bet Jim Jordan is one of the wastes of human flesh sucking up taxpayer money while floating this stupidity.  Uh, yes:

Huelskamp's bill has no chance of becoming law, but it gives lawmakers strongly opposed to same-sex marriage a chance to make their views known. Its cosponsors include Republican Reps. Joe Barton (Texas), Jim Bridenstine (Okla.), Mo Brooks (Ala.), Paul Broun (Ga.), Jeff Duncan (S.C.), John Fleming (La.), Trent Franks (Ariz.), Louie Gohmert (Texas), Ralph Hall (Texas), Andy Harris (Md.), Randy Hultgren (Ill.), Sam Johnson (Texas), Walter Jones (N.C.), Jim Jordan (Ohio), James Lankford (Okla.), Mark Meadows (N.C.), Randy Neugebauer (Texas), Steven Palazzo (Miss.), Stevan Pearce (N.M.), Robert Pittenger (N.C.), Joe Pitts (Pa.), David Schweikert (Ariz.), Bill Shuster (Pa.), Chris Smith (N.J.), Steve Stockman (Texas), Tim Walberg (Mich.), Lynn Westmoreland (Ga.) and Frank Wolf (Va.)
The bill is just two sentences long:

Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Neither this Constitution, nor the constitution of any State, shall be construed to require that marriage or the legal incidents thereof be conferred upon any union other than the union of a man and a woman.

Ah, the intellectual consistency of states' rights conservatives is displayed in full view.  Seriously, dumbfucks, it takes 38 states to amend the Constitution, and 13 (out of 50, leaving 37 left [and don't tell me that Barack Obama thinks there are 57 states]) already have same-sex marriage, meaning they are unlikely to approve your ignorant Constitutional amendment.

I really liked this quote:

Recent polls show that a majority of Americans support same-sex marriage, but Huelskamp told The Huffington Post last week that he's pushing his bill because majority opinions aren't always the best measure for legislating.
"A majority of Americans don't like President Obama as president, but he's still the president," Huelskamp said.

And the vast majority of the population thinks the Republicans in the House of Representatives are damaging our country, mainly because of stupid assholes like you and Jim Jordan, Mr. Huelskamp.
