Roy whacked Pat. Pat then slapped Phil. Phil poked Pat back. And no one laid a glove on Roy.
That was last week.
This week Roy whacked Pat again. And Pat gabbed Phil three times.
Last week Pat said Phil was cutting taxes too much – and this week he said Phil was ‘raising taxes’ too much. And added Republican State Senators sounded to him a lot like John Edwards talking about ‘class warfare.’
Pat also said Phil’s bill saying magistrates don’t have to perform gay marriages – if it doesn’t sit well with their religious beliefs – is wrong-headed. And the Senate’s “Religious Freedom Restoration Bill” (which also relates to gay rights) isn’t needed.
And four gay mayors then invited Pat to join their gay rights coalition.
It’s been a messy two weeks. But there’s a method in the madness.
Roy wants to be Governor so he’s attacking Pat on education.
Pat figures Phil is too conservative and attacking Phil will help him defeat Roy.
And, well, Phil’s simply for old-fashioned conservative. Who’s for lower taxes and opposes gay-marriage.
And that’s the way of things: Take a bit of logic, add politicians, taxes, and gay-marriage – and you end up with a quagmire.
