Sen. Paul Stanley: A 'Heartless, Cruel, Motherfucker'

Sen. Paul Stanley today filed his bill to ban gay adoptions, and our very own liberal blogosphere immediately pounced. Behold the fury of Aunt B and Southern Beale. First, Aunt B:

Yes, Citizens of Earth, the very day after the House had to hold a hearing because Representative Williams didn't seem to understand he wasn't being elected by his constituents to represent them at a giant frat party, some other elected legislator had the audacity to try to tell us about what's appropriate morality.  See, they can fuck whoever they want whenever they want or die trying, but woe to you if you want to fall in love with someone and give a child a loving home, if you don't fit what they think is right.

Now, Southern Beale:

Tennessee's jobless rate is nearly 8%, we have an environmental disaster in the east part of the state and retirees losing promised healthcare benefits, we have Tennessee's higher education system facing budget cuts, and what is the priority for Evangelical Christian Republican Paul Stanley of Memphis? Senator Stanley wants to know what's happening in your bedroom.

I had no idea that the lead singer/guitarist for Kiss even lived in Tennessee, much less was a legislator.

Let's hope Rep. Ace Frehley is less of a jackass. Rep. Peter Criss was carring him all these years anyway.

Wow. He looks a lot different without the makeup.

My understanding of this law is that it would prohibit anyone who is unmarried from adopting a minor child. So this is more than just an anti-gay adoption law.
Under this law, what would happen in instances of a parent or parents dying? Could a single grandparent or older sibling or aunt or uncle adopt the orphaned child? Or would they have to get hitched just to take them in?
This is such a short-sighted and pointless piece of bullshit legislation.
