Priorities
Hugo Schwyzer, a pacifist (?) liberal who opposed the war in Iraq, now suggests that the war may have been worth it because José Maria Aznar’s support of the war against Iraq (which, we all know, had nothing to do with al-Qaeda) motivated al-Qaeda (which, we all know, had nothing to do with Iraq) to murder hundreds of Spaniards just in time to swing the election in favor of the new government, which opposes terror in all of its forms (except, of course, any forms having anything to do with Iraq), and which has since gone on to enact gay marriage.
Here’s a question for my liberal friends in the U.S.: assume for argumewnt’s sake that gay marriage is so wonderful that it’ worth an otherwise unnecessary war and the murder of 200+ innocent Spaniards, most of whom didn’t even support that war in the first place. Assuming that, does gay marriage even count if it’s enacted by an elected legislative body rather than a court?
