Ode to Mountjoy

You are an asshole.

But opponents, including conservative Republicans, have argued that the law must be stopped in the nation's most populous state because it constitutes another assault on the sanctity of the family. Californians passed a defense-of-marriage act defining marriage as between a man and a woman in 2000, and the state, which mixes freewheeling Marin County with culturally conservative Orange County, has emerged as a front line in the battle over the bedroom ever since.

"Marriage should be between a man and a woman, end of story. Next issue," insisted Assemblyman Dennis Mountjoy (R-Monrovia). "It's not about civil rights or personal rights, it's about acceptance. They want to be accepted as normal. They are not normal." -- Washington Post, September 7, 2005

Here's an excerpt from Dennis's bio:

Dennis has two grown children, Tammy and Nicholas, and one grandchild, Diego. He is a member of the California Republican Assembly and the Lincoln Club. He is an avid golfer. His hobbies include fishing and hunting.

Notice anything?
