FGB Update

The Arizona anti-marriage amendment passed yesterday with 16 votes, the minimum needed. Apparently, the chicanery was fairly open. Pam's House Blend has the story.

And for our Irony of the Week, the FMA is back, co-sponsored by -- are you ready for this? -- Sens. Larry Craig and David Vitter, both well-known proponents of family values, as long as the family includes high-priced hookers and public men's rooms. Pam's House Blend has this story, too.

It looks as though Iceland may have joined the list of countries in which same-sex marriage is legal. There's a brief report at Box Turtle Bulletin.

More later. Probably.
