Told You So: They Don't Really Mean It

As I have previously pointed out, the right wing (and President Bush in particular) only uses gay marriage as a wedge issue when they feel (or to be more precise, Karl Rove feels) it will gain them political points--they are not true believers on the issue. Apparently gay marriage was a huge issue right before the election, not huge right after the election, big enough for the State of the Union, and today comes word that congressional republicans are dropping the issue for the rest of the year. Things that make you go "hmmmmmm!"
