Quote:

The leader of the Georgia Republican Party decried marriage equality in a newspaper interview as a pathway for heterosexual people to scam their way into getting tax breaks.

"I believe a husband and a wife should be a man and a woman, the benefits should be for a man and a woman," chairwoman Sue Everhart told the Marietta Daily Journal for a story published on Saturday. "There is no way that this is about equality. To me, it's all about a free ride."

Everhart described a scenario where two friends who were "straight as an arrow" could enter into a fake marriage if one of them had a job with a "wonderful health plan."
And male-female friends couldn't do this? Even if both were gay?
