    This is the guy who tells government workers in Texas that if they want to break the law and not issue marriage licenses they can because there are lawyers lined up to represent them for free. I don’t think he really understands how the law works. I think he needs to step down from his position as Attorney General, he clearly is not good for Texas.

    Looks like this is an investigation being conducted by the state of Texas and not the federal government.

    Hey, a self-righteous, condescending gay marriage opponent might end up in a federal penitentiary; where he could be involuntarily “wedded” to a large, brutal cell-mate.

    Karma can be a sonofabitch….
