  • Kupek, I'll admit that Washington Times does have a bug up their ass about the gay marriage thing.  Can't count the number of times that "marry", "wed", or "wedding" comes up in quotes in this article.

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>I endured the Washington Times on a daily basis when I spent a semester in D.C. in Fall of 2002 because it was the only paper my hotel delivered. It is most definitely a very conservative publication.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Heh...just checked the website. Looks like a gay/lesbian paper. Interesting that stuff like this exists, even if it's not mainstream at all.</div>
