Adding Fuel to the Fire

To those who don't understand why I find the position of people who support the word "civil unions" for same-sex couples almost as intolerable as those who say that marriage for the same should be banned, or for those who require some clarification or understanding to why the naming is important even if the benefits are the same.

Here's three words.

Plessy v. Ferguson.

Doesn't right a bell? Three more words.

Separate but equal.

We like to think we've grown somewhat beyond that since 1955.

Well, now that your ranting is accompanied by a relevant pundit photo, it's even more entertaining. Your "Gropenfuhrer!" photo caused some consternation in the T. household the other day - spouse was surprised by it when sitting down at computer to do some work. He came running into the bedroom: "Is that *Terence*? What, is he on drugs or something??" Yeah, that's why everyone in Georgia is so happy all the time.

*laugh* Well, tell Han Li I'm still sane. A friend of mine, [livejournal.com profile] mrdankelly, who's a Chicago-based writer, has his pundit photo too, so I was just being a copycat.
