chaobellSo, as promised and after the shot or two of vanilla vodka necessary to handle this thing without my brain exploding from the sheer condescension and stupidity, the letter.
Dear Ms. [Chaobell]:
Thank you for sharing your concerns with the Office of the Governor.
Please note that Governor Perry has asked no one to leave this state. He said those seeking a gay marriage may find other states more receptive than Texas, but whether to leave Texas to pursue such an arrangement would be their choice. The governor's comment was in direct response to a reporter's question. The question asked pertained specifically to gay war veterans returning home and what they might think of a state not allowing them to marry.
The governor will welcome back to Texas any veteran who has served this nation with distinction.
Governor Perry respects the viewpoints of others, but he also believes that the vast majority of Texans agree with him that marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman.
Sincerely,
Dede Keith
Administration and Constituent Services
Office of the Governor
That's right. This is better than "His Majesty signed in his own rubber stamp." Didn't even have the balls to put his own name on the form letter, the spineless bastard.
