Word Salad


Or a reasonable facsimile thereof. There really ought to be an award for this, but I can't think what to call it. The Sarah Palin Award?

From NOM's very own Ruth Institute:

REI is the latest corporation to take a stand against biological parenthood by supporting redefining marriage. Any company and any individual who supports redefining marriage is opposing your right as a biological parent. Biological parenthood says your rights come from God. REI, Starbucks, Best Buy, Nike, Microsoft, Google, Proctor & Gamble… the list is quite extensive and they are all in opposition to the biological status of parents. They may or may not know this. But that is the what will happen if marriage is redefined. And they will be responsible for the resulting harms.

WTF? "Biological parenthood says your rights come from God"? What does that mean?

Via Joe.My.God. Joe also points out that the Ruth Institute post concludes by "glumly" linking to this Wikipedia entry on corporate support for same-sex marriage. It's quite an impressive list, headed by a disclaimer that it's not complete.

It seems to me that anyone who didn't have her head firmly planted up her ass would figure that she's missing something.

So these nongs are against adoption? That's not "biological parenthood".
