Backlash in the Heartland

Hrmmmm. Kern and Butte Counties here in California have announced that starting next week they'll stop performing weddings altogether. For those fine folks unfamiliar with the state of California, Kern County is the heart of Okie territory. Okies are those people who immigrated here from places like Oklahoma during the Great Depression despite the state's repeated attempts to stop their influx. Go read "The Grapes of Wrath." They even have their own twangy dialect in Kern County, and their finest city, Bakersfield, is known for it's own subgenre of C&W music called "The Bakersfield Sound." Butte County was once identified as having the highest number of Elvis Presley fans per capita of any county in the state. Both counties are repulsive, ugly places populated by knuckle dragging hillbillies and other assorted morons. For example, I have some Okie cousins in Kern County who sell Amway products. See? Suffice to say, both these places are extremely conservative. The fine citizens of California's "sophisticated" coastal regions didn't quite anticipate this reaction to the sudden lift of the ban on gay marriage.

These two counties claim that they simply don't have the resources to handle the MASSIVE INFLUX of homosexshals who'll no doubt flood into their various city halls, demanding marriage licenses. Come off it. There are prolly a total of four squirrel skinning lesbians in a trailer stuck way up in Butte County, and the only homo I've ever met from Kern County, while having dated two of my exes, is a drunken soak with no apparent plans to tie the knot. They don't really think we're all stupid enough to fall for this, do they? I suspect that Kern County clerk, Ann Barnett, and Butte County clerk, Candace Grubb, may be allowing their religious beliefs to interfere with their duties as public servants. If this is the case, they both need to immediately step down so someone who can actually perform the job can take their place.

Even Oklahoma is not as backwards as Bakersfield. They are like Oklahoma circa 1952. I really wasn't planning to go there to get married anyway.

I think eastern California should secede and join Nevada.
