Why does Rush Limbaugh oppose gay marriage?
He's been in, what, three heterosexual marriages that ended in divorce? Plus, most humiliatingly, Daryn Kagan dumped him. Maybe a gay marriage would work out better for him. Just sayin'. Same for Newtie.

1. Rush is scared he's want to marry a squid
Since his theory that gay marriage will bring up the whole notion that people would then want to marry farm animals, his fear of his love for squids would probably lead to the obvious conclusion.

3. Ohhhh....
I didn't know that Daryn dumped him. First of all, I can't figure what she saw in that slob?

5. $$$$$$$$ can be very charming to some women
Plus, I'm sure he wined and dined her and was aggresivly charming, hoping to lure her into becoming a high profile beard for ten years and a day.

I guess she just realized she could do better, if not richer. Either that, or he mentioned the magic word: prenup.

Those are meant to be broken. His last wife walked away with millions.

11. Millions but a far cry from HALF.
The prenup was honored. She fulfilled her end of the bargain, a beard for ten years and a day.

Yes, she is now a wealthy woman. However, it's hardly what she would have gotten in the absence of a prenup.

4. Never did understand how they were protecting marriage
so well. The disintigration of the American Family thru work, distractions, and fatigue is causing 50% of all marriages splitting. Most marriages end due to financial disagreements. Divorce is #1 cause of confusion and angst among children. We are not helping protect marriage when twiddle dee britney spears marries and divorces all within one day.

6. He's scared shitless he might like it.
The favorite way to avoid introspection, brutal honesty, and answering, fairly, difficult questions about difficult issues is to scorn, denigrate, whistle past the graveyard, and work on one's outrage and curved shouldered "who me!" obfuscation navigation.

7. Like I said after Limaugh's last divorce.....
We don't need to legalize Gay marriage in this country so much as we need to enact a "Three Strikes and Your Out" law for heterosexuals, if only to prevent there being another Mrs. Rush Limbaugh.

(Al Franken you stole that joke from me!:))

8. A non issue republicans need to smokescreen voters into avoiding
Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 12:56 PM by LaPera
the real issues and major problems this country has...Pigman is a republican, a true racist fascist, so he'll always go along on any issue (or non issue) that helps the lying republicans and their oppressive agenda.

10. That's too easy
He's just afraid that there will be one more person he has to pay alimony to when that relationship goes down the tube, like his other three marriages.
