Woot woot!!!!
Governor David Paterson plans to introduce a bill on Thursday that would legalize gay marriage in the state of New York.
We’re just going to keep at this shit until all the old people who don’t seem to understand that every life should be treated equal finally die off.
Can’t be stopped! Won’t be stopped! This shit is a BULLDOZER running on a giant engine called Proposition 8. You should have left well enough alone, haters.
You can read more details about the bill, and the issues it expects to face in the state legislature, here.
After Governor Eliot Spitzer resigned from his office in New York after being caught in the middle of a prostitution ring, it turns out his replacement — David Paterson — has a long and distinguished history of drug use and extra-marital affairs.
The conversation he had with NY1′s Inside City Hall on Monday night went, literally, like this:
Carter: Marijuana?
Paterson: Yes.
Carter: Cocaine?
Paterson: Yes.
Carter: You have used cocaine, Governor?
Paterson: I’d say I was about 22-23. I tried it a few times, yes.
Paterson and his wife have also both admitted to having affairs outside their marriage, although neither wants to talk about how many.
Jesus Christ, people!
You know, I used to think that, with my past, I could never in a million years run for public office. But now I’m thinking otherwise. Hell, I haven’t used cocaine since I was about 23, either! In fairness, though, that was like 3 years ago.
Paterson is both the first African-American and first legally blind governor of New York.
