House Republicans have been talking about interfering with this godless backroom smut-fest in the nation’s capital called “marriage,” and they’re now getting around to doing it, as if they had the power to make things law:
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), chairman of the conservative Republican Study Committee (RSC), told The Hill that he will push for a vote on the controversial issue in the 112th Congress. The RSC has 175 members.
Ohio. Not D.C. Of course. [The Hill via Gawker]

Get your federal government hands off my marriage!!!
State's rights!
Applies to states. The vile repugs can fuck around all they want with us DC folks and use us as their laboratory. Time for our never-nonviolent muggers to get busy around Cap Hill.
We're not a state. We're just a whipping boy for the BS Conservative Agenda, especially because there isn't a goddamned thing we can do about it. Kick any blind puppies recently, Rep Jordan?
Oh come on. You know the federal government knows more about your welfare than you do. At least, the Republicans in the federal government. They know more about how you should be treated for diseases (only if you're rich!), when you should reproduce (always!), who you should be able to marry (NOT their gay lovers!) and what books you should be reading from the library (thank you, Bush).
Now, the democratic members of the federal government, well, they're just evil elitist socialists who want to control everything because they think they're smarter. But they're bad! Bad, I say! There's a difference!
But they lowered taxes on the wealthy, so therefore support "freedom"! 'Cause freedom's just another word for nothin' left to loose, and nothin', that's all that Boehner left me.
What the fuck do Republicans study?
My Pet Goat
they study WAR, as in "we an't gonna study war no more.."
-from the 60s in case you don't remember due to the cloud of smoke surrounding
the collective in the woods
Trick question!
Textbooks are for holdin' doors open. Only arugula-eatin' elitists study. Or read.
The Bible! Also, Machiavelli's The Prince.
Another of Ham Biscuit's dreams, shattered.
There's a real conservative principle for you — limited government, so long as it doesn't interfere with conservatives' desire to fuck with what people want and need. Jim Jordan needs to spend an Alaska winter in a burqa.
Nobody wants the government interfering with their right to tell other people what to do.
The GOP wants gayness confined to bathrooms–where they practice it.
Thank goodness all of the nation's real problems have been solved, so now Repugs can get down to the minutia.
Did he take a "wide stance" at the podium when he announced this? Sounds like someone doth protest too much. I know what to get Congressman Jordan for x-mas next year, a BIG BAG OF DICKS.
Do you think House Republicans will have time to repeal the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics?
well, they have already more or less repealed Darwin's evolution, and next they will do away with Gravity, to prepare for their blessed Rapture…yep, they will all (that is, the christers who will be Saved) float up into the sky and join their Master, Jeebus.
then we will all be living in the Theocratic States of America, led by Oral Roberts, Billy Graham and other preachermen. hallelujah!
The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics predicts how the universe will end, and it's nothing like what's described in Revelation, so obviously it's part of the commie anti-Christian conspiracy.
There's a joke in there somewhere about the increasing chaos in our government, but my thoughts are just too damn scattered to put it together.
What he said!
Will they repeal the Law of the Excluded Middle?
Maybe.
It's a lot harder for Republican congressmen to try and have anonymous gay sex in the bathroom when most of the District's gay men are happily out of the closet and meeting guys the same normal ways straight people meet each other.
The House Republiklans in Iowa intend on putting to the floor next week, a vote to have a vote banning gay marriage Constitutional Amendment.
Not just a law, but a Constitutional Amendment specifically outlawing same-sex marriage in the state of Iowa. Despite the fact that it will not even get debated in the Senate, or that there are any number of more pressing issues, they fully intend to pass legislation calling for a vote in the state to amend the Constitution.
And they are still working to impeach the remaining members of the Supreme Court that unanimously ruled that banning same-sex marriage is unconstitutional.
The Taliban is alive and well in the state of Iowa.
"Not In My Back Door"!
What is a shingle that does not hang outside the C Street House?
Where, Republitards, are the mutha fuckin' jawbs? And where is the mutha fuckin' media to pile on like they did when the Dems were running things. Oh yeah, librul media.
But who can blame the Republicans? It has to be uncomfortable when your boyfriend keeps trying to get you to dump your wife and be monogamous when you would rather just cruise the bars for another hook up. In the same situation, you would be desperate to return to the status quo.
Makes sense since D.C. in Washington stands for Dick and Cunt (only)
Ah a douchebag from the heartland telling city folk that you need to change into a douchebag just like teabaggers in the hinterlands
Hooray! They've recreated all the lost jobs.
Hooray! The budget is balanced.
Hooray! Voters in D.C. are overruled.
'penes'
I thought the plural of "Penis" was "Swingin' Meats".
Yeah, if ya wanna get all technical.
That's the sort of brilliance you can expect from a 175-member committee.
Wise up D.C., it's John Adams and Eve, not John Adams and Steve. Marriage should be between consenting family members of different sexes, or it gets icky very quickly. This Stud Committee needs to ask themselves "what would <insert gay porn star> do?"
Jim Jordan, loser.
Jimbo, why don't you run along and have a nice little chat with your pretend friend Jesus, and let those with a grip on reality make the decisions.
Rep. Jordan, we know this is just your veiled attempt to get to meet Carrie Prejean. Don't you read the papers? She's preggers to an NFL quarterback. She doesn't want to meet you. It might queer the fetus, so to speak.
Kyle wasn't Bolling alone, I guess.
Merrily, merrily merrily merrily….life is but a fuckin dream!
First the meaningless vote to repeal HCR, now this. Guess jobs and balancing the budget will have to wait…and wait…
Anyone that actually believed that the Republiklans were running on a platform of creating jobs and balancing the budget, got the House of Representatives that they deserve.
Sadly, the rest of us got the same HoR.
everything will be solved in Cleveland once they eliminate Kucinich's district…at least that's the GOP plan I hear.
Won't you come home, Jim Jordan, won't you come home; It's been a long, long, day.
I'll do your cookin' baby, your washin' too, I'll suck your cares a-waaaaaay!
Don't you remember baby, those college days, we had it oh, so gooood?
Just do your best in Congress, string them along, we'll be together soon.
Just stay in the closet, baby, keep us down low, and we'll defeat that Coon!
Dear Rep. Jordan,
Go back to Ohio, you sad cheese-sniffing twat. Everyone in D.C. hates you. I can say this with authority since the other homophobic cunts in Congress all live in Virginia. Go join your smegma-lapping brethren and fuck the hell out of the District's business.
Oh, by the way, I'm going to go get knocked up just so I can have an abortion to PISS YOU OFF, you fucking waste-of-space bigoted piece of infected dog wang.
Yours,
Cicada
Sometimes, I wish we had our own tea party.
