GOP Congressman Attends Son’s Gay Wedding Three Days After Voting Against Gay Marriage
The hypocrisy of these GOP freaks truly knows no bounds. Via NBC:
A Republican lawmaker attended his gay son’s wedding just three days after joining the majority of his GOP colleagues in voting against a House bill that would codify federal protections for same-sex marriage.
The gay son of Rep. Glenn Thompson, R-Pa., confirmed to NBC News on Monday that he “married the love of [his] life” on Friday and that his “father was there.” NBC News is not publishing the names of the grooms, neither of whom is a public figure.
Thompson’s press secretary, Maddison Stone, also confirmed the congressman was in attendance.
“Congressman and Mrs. Thompson were thrilled to attend and celebrate their son’s marriage on Friday night as he began this new chapter in his life,” Stone said in an email, adding that the Thompsons are “very happy” to welcome their new son-in-law “into their family.”

Hopefully the ass-backward Republican bigots in rural western Pennsylvania (specifically, the 15th congressional district that Thompson represents) he was trying to impress with his “no” vote will learn of the fag wedding he attended and decide to skip voting for him in his reelection this November. Then again, there’s currently no Democrat on the ballot and he’s running unopposed, so it won’t even matter.
