GAYS ALLOWED TO MARRY EACH OTHER IN NEW HEATHEN STATE: Put on your birthday suit, Joe Lieberman, because now you can finally get gay-married to your longtime sexpot, Lindsey Graham! Although he’d have to move to Connecticut! Because that’s where the state Supreme Court today decided that the Gays could get married, just like real humans. Ned Lamont: “This is our Katrina.” [NYT]

  1. By tomorrow we will marrying pieces of fruit and household pets.

  2. Sussemilch says at 2:05 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Good. Most guys can’t afford women in this economy anyway.

  3. Lazy Media says at 2:06 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Hot diggety! As a necropheliac-bestiality-loving-American, I have been on tenterhooks waiting for teh gheys to get theirs, so’s I can gets mine.

    I plan to marry my dead cat as soon as the oppression against my orientation is ended. Lift every voice and sing…

  4. Is that a picture of Mr. Bill’s son and his gay lover?

  5. edgydrifter says at 2:08 pm, October 10th, 2008

    SO NOW I CAN PUT MY DICK IN TOSTER AND CALL IT MABEL–HUMMMMM?

  6. AngryBlakGuy says at 2:09 pm, October 10th, 2008

    …why does the Connecticut Supreme Court hate the “traditional family”?!

  7. edgydrifter says at 2:09 pm, October 10th, 2008

    azw88: I think it’s Bob the Builder’s big night out at the disco.

  8. springfield_meltdown says at 2:11 pm, October 10th, 2008

    I’m marrying my toaster. It is hell of a lot more useful and interesting than many of the men I’ve dated. Yay for warm bread!

  9. V572625694 says at 2:11 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Lazy Media: Can’t you spare any affection for that dead sheep that butt-zexed George Will yesterday?

  10. Bypartizoa says at 2:12 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Well Lieberman is a switch-hitter, after all. I wish him and Lindsey “the Clay Aiken of the Senate” Graham all the best in their new life together.

  11. shortsshortsshorts says at 2:12 pm, October 10th, 2008

    You’re all Californians, now.

  12. SCOTUS is in the tank

  13. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 2:13 pm, October 10th, 2008

    TJBeck: Lazy Media: The guys aren’t getting married to each other, in that picture. They’re marrying the cats!

  14. Carrie_Okie says at 2:14 pm, October 10th, 2008

    So Vinegar Joe is what? Queen of Connecticunt?

  15. Doglessliberal says at 2:15 pm, October 10th, 2008

    AngryBlakGuy: Well, they obviously are Muslins. And also clearly want another country to be destroyed by a tsunami.

  16. Unfortunately none of the Wall Street gays in Connecticut can afford the marriage license fee anymore.

  17. springfield_meltdown: warm bread, or just a yeast infection….

  18. GlennBecksTaint says at 2:16 pm, October 10th, 2008

    New Haven has a whole new meaning

  19. regisgoat says at 2:16 pm, October 10th, 2008

    I just married a cage full of zebra finches. It’s not unexpected, they’ve taken my seed for a long time now.

  20. shortsshortsshorts says at 2:17 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Carrie_Okie: Hoe Luber-man.

  21. CivicHoliday says at 2:17 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Bring on the end times! I have the marshmellows…who’ll cover graham crackers and chocolate? We can enjoy making smores using our own burning corpses.

  22. Canmon (the Inadequate) says at 2:18 pm, October 10th, 2008

    I’d like to welcome Connecticut to the 21st century.

  23. Remember when Gay Marriage was the biggest fear of the GOP?
    Ah, good times… good times.

  24. That sound you’re hearing? Gnashing of GOP teeth.

  25. TJBeck: Which is a good idea, ’cause they’re very low financial maintenance compared to an actual person. Come to think of it, marrying one’s hand is the cheapest.

  26. tunamelt says at 2:20 pm, October 10th, 2008

    This is pretty gay.

  27. Doglessliberal says at 2:21 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Canmon (the Inadequate): 47 states to go!

  28. voyetra8 says at 2:21 pm, October 10th, 2008

    This is all well and good, but where in the fuck is the Troopergate announcement?!?

  29. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 2:21 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Canmon (the Inadequate): Someday, I’d like to welcome Virginia to that. “Virginia is for lovers,” my ass. And certainly not for lovers in the ass.

  30. SuperRounder says at 2:22 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Foxwoods is about to become a very interesting place.

  31. Lazy Media says at 2:23 pm, October 10th, 2008

    V572625694: Polygamy? Ewwwwwww.

  32. Naked Bunny with a Whip says at 2:24 pm, October 10th, 2008

    TJBeck: Nah, I’m just gonna keep fucking my pets the sinful, unmarried way.

  33. Well I guess we know which one is the “lipstick lesbian”

  34. NoWireHangers says at 2:26 pm, October 10th, 2008

    I’ll be damned if Proposition 8 passes and fucking Connecticut upstages California as a liberal sodomite haven. That’s OUR claim to fame, fuckers.

  35. V572625694 says at 2:27 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Lazy Media: You’re right. One should always be faithful to one carcass at a time.

  36. Anonymous Office Zombie says at 2:28 pm, October 10th, 2008

    AxmxZ: And/or the sound of GOPers reloadin’ their multiple guns.

  37. Hurray! Another dumbass talking point for Palin & company.

  38. shortsshortsshorts says at 2:30 pm, October 10th, 2008

    NoWireHangers: Prop 8 is scaring the hell out of me. I thought it didn’t stand a chance and now the Mormons are out full-force and its working.

  39. FunkyPalmettoBug says at 2:31 pm, October 10th, 2008

    No wonder Graham and Lieberman have been so close….

  40. JamesMichaelCurley says at 2:32 pm, October 10th, 2008

    These guys aren’t even trying any more.

    John McCain announced a new proposal to suspend rules for selling off IRAs and 401k’s today, as people may be forced to work longer even as the value of their retirement accounts have been decimated in recent days.

    “We must also protect investors – especially those relying on their investments for retirement,” McCain said. “Current rules mandate that investors must begin to sell off their IRAs and 401ks when they reach age 70 and a half. To spare investors from being forced to sell their stocks at just the time when the market is hurting the most, those rules should be suspended.”

    The campaign added that the current law is making seniors “sell their retirement assets at substantial loss,” arguing that the government shouldn’t make workers sell their holdings while the stock market is still turbulent.

  41. Liverspots says at 2:33 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Winning the culture war, one irrelevant state at a time.

  42. NoWireHangers: Hard to beat Rhode Island on this one, though - a liberal sodomizing prostitute’s port in the storm.

  43. I always thought that Connecticut built Interstate 95 so that the jews and catholics could keep driving through as fast as possible. Now the wasps have to share their world with the gay people. ha ha. 47 more states to go.

  44. “Mawwiage. That bwessed awwangement. That dweam within a dweam.”

  45. ReverendGreen says at 2:43 pm, October 10th, 2008

    OK Team Wonkette, now is time for phase 2 of the “Joe Lieberman is a virgin” gameplan, spread out to the AOL rooms and proclaim that the gay marriage law will cause him to marry Lindsay Graham and for the first time ever have sex!

  46. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 2:44 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Sussemilch: True. I had to trade my wife in for a 19 year old male whore. Besides the herpetic sores I’ve been surprisingly pleased with the bargain.

  47. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 2:46 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Canmon (the Inadequate): Yes, welcome to the 21st century, Connecticut. Now the polar ice caps melt and you sink into the ocean. The rest of the country is much happier.

  48. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 2:51 pm, October 10th, 2008

    It was only a matter of time. After all, living in Hartford is not unlike being assraped by a rabid lemur. Repeatedly, and with great fervor.

  49. CrabtreesBludgeon says at 2:52 pm, October 10th, 2008

    NoWireHangers: Oh shit, you’re right! THAT would bring unbearable shame to this great golden gay state. To whom do I address my No on 8 funds again?

  50. NoWireHangers says at 2:53 pm, October 10th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: Maybe the Mormons would back gay marriage if it was between 1 men and 20 boys?

  51. CrabtreesBludgeon says at 2:57 pm, October 10th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: Really?! Crap, I haven’t seen the polling lately, what’s it at?

  52. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 2:59 pm, October 10th, 2008

    NoWireHangers: Other than it would be too much like the Catholics, I think you’re right.

  53. When I come home at 2:00 AM, reeking of hookers and beer, I’m telling my old lady that those fudge-packers in CT made me do it.

    regisgoat: Love it.

  54. edgydrifter says at 3:06 pm, October 10th, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: You know, I’ve always had a hard time describing my visits to Hartford to my friends here in the West. Fervent, rabid lemur assraping captures the experience perfectly. +1 to you!

  55. Doglessliberal says at 3:22 pm, October 10th, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: edgydrifter: hey, but you have…um, well, Mark Twain’s house. That is something!

  56. Canuck13652 says at 3:29 pm, October 10th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: OMG it’s really scary. I spent all of Weds arguing with people on Patt Morrison’s blog (http://www.facebook.com/share_redirect.php?h=8935c567fd110330a662fe6f0c3f3cd9&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.publicradio.org%2Fcolumns%2Fkpcc%2Fpattmorrisonblog%2F2008%2F10%2Fpatt-morrison-for-wednesday-oc-1.html&sid=48170075968) and honestly the stuff people come up with–we can’t let gays marry because it will lead to child abuse, or we can’t let gays marry because it makes baby jesus cry.

    And why is it legal for out-of-state Mormons/Morans to donate moniez?

  57. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 3:37 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Doglessliberal: And Wallace Stevens’ house too. I even took the “literary walking trail” tour. Scintillating. Of course, this was in February, when everything was covered in nine feet of gray slush and muck. I was never so happy to get back to the South.

  58. AnnieGetYourFun says at 3:48 pm, October 10th, 2008

    The comparison to Katrina is apt. After all, one was a category 5 storm that destroyed a city and left a total of over 1,800 people dead. The other is a policy that allows two adults in love to share their lives together in the same manner that… hm. Wait, maybe not so much on the comparison?

  59. So can we retroactively use this to blame gays for the economic crisis or not? Did God pre-curse us?

  60. ProfessorJukes says at 3:53 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Totowa: What the hell state are you talking about? In my medium-sized Connecticut town, it’s nothing but eye-talian and Irish catholics slowly being replaced by Puerto Rican Catholics. And the surrounding towns are just full of wiccan covens. Of course none of us can afford property on the shoreline, so it’s not that relevant to I-95.
    Anyway, keep driving, don’t get off the highway, and get your geography from TV.

  61. Doglessliberal says at 3:59 pm, October 10th, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: I went to Twain’s as part of a similar trip around NE–we did the famous writer’s graves thing in MA along wtih Emily Dickinson’s house. Man, we are SUCH elitists.

  62. eatsshootsleaves says at 4:13 pm, October 10th, 2008

    We don’t just have Mark Twain and gays! We also have Eli Whitney!!!!

    You know, creator of the cotton gin?

    Yeah. I know. You’re jealous.

    Would it be very Michelle Obama-like of me to say that, for the first time in my life, I am proud of my home state?

  63. eatsshootsleaves says at 4:18 pm, October 10th, 2008

    Totowa: ProfessorJukes: I’d just like to echo Professor Jukes. Out of certain areas in Fairfield County, we’re a very Catholic and Jewish state. By the way, those certain areas of Fairfield County are where I grew up. They actually bussed people from Bridgeport to our school to give us some diversity.

  64. ProfessorJukes: Heh, you don’t live in Wallingford, do you? Because you have described it very well.

  65. In Stamford, this is a wedge issue.

  66. Doglessliberal says at 4:53 pm, October 10th, 2008

    nurple: wedge of iceberg with bleu cheese dressing?

  67. That is why CT is known as the “Nutmeg” state.

  68. S. Cullen Bonz says at 9:41 am, October 12th, 2008

    I bet the sex between those two dolls leaves their clay achin’.

  69. Baldeagle79 says at 5:49 pm, October 12th, 2008

    What is it about the liberal philosophy that precludes it from being a ‘good’ winner? I’m never surprised to see how a liberal victory is celebrated with more meaningless anti-Conservative rhetoric, like I see here on Wonkette. You must resort to calling Lieberman and Graham gay lovers? Seriously? http://www.offeringcommonsense.blogspot.com
