Congressman's hubby denied benefits...

Former Congressman Gerry Studds (the first openly gay Congressman ever) passed away recently, but his hubby is being denied pension benefits due to the Defense of Marriage Act passed/signed by Bill Clinton in the mid 90s, although they were LEGALLY married in Massachusetts.

The fucked up part? The only people denied pension benefits in the government are those convicted of treason, and the gays. Wow, there's a great lesson government. Even if we have the utmost respect for our gay elected officials and leaders, their lovers are treated as if they were traitors to this country.

Moral of the story? There really isn't one. My advice, -Attention Pages! - take all the secrets you can find and sell them, in the end at least you will make some money for being treated like a traitor while you are getting fucked by Congress (whether metaphorically or literally).
