CNN.com – Senate set to reject gay marriage ban – Jun 6, 2006 “I don’t believe there’s any issue that’s more important than this one,” said Sen. David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican.
Okay, now you have gone too far. ( Thanks to Peter Dubuque for pointing this out in his comment on my Vitter’s Vitriol post) As we sit amidst the rubble hoping not to get blown to kingdom come by this years hurricane season our most pressing worry is certainly gay marriage!
I’m sorry but this is beyond the pale. The fact that I find him to be a jackass notwithstanding, that comment alone is cause for a recall. Are we really going to tolerate this sanctimonious and self impressed fool to continue to hold office? Category Five Levee Protection! Now! To hell with the homophobia, there won’t be anyone (straight or gay) around to argue it if we all get washed away!
Contact him, tell him what you think is important.
EDIT: Here is the text I just sent him through his website’s form:
Dear David,
your comments to CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/06/06/same.sex.marriage/index.html) “I don’t believe there’s any issue that’s more important than this one,” were absolutely out of bounds. When New Orleans and it’s environs are devastated you cannot think of anything more important than your own homophobia? You should either step down or seriously reconsider your priorities.
You shouldn’t have to be told this, you grew up here. I know, we graduated togetehr at De La Salle back in ’85. To show the mammoth disdain for your home required in making that statement is indicative of a disdain for your constituency that is unconscionable.
You were under intelligent in High School, but you have become a fool of the greatest caliber as an adult.
Resign,
George “Loki” Williams

BTW, I will be posting any reply I recieve directly to this site.
I can’t wait to see how/if he responds. He never bothered responding to the e-mail I sent out earlier this week, but he has responded to a few other people’s.
I’ve been formulating my own letter today.
And only as a friend who was also an English major…I hope you spellchecked before you sent it to him.

I will be watching too Loki and if he doesn’t respond right I will help you get out the word on this guy and others.
I think it is time we Katrina Victims in Louisiana and Mississippi unite. These anti-christ frauds need to hear from those suffering in Louisiana and Mississippi. My twin sister still lives in a tent to this day in Gautier and I see little done there. If gay marriage is the most important issue to him, then let him come live in a tent or live in the superdome.
