Gay Marriage Now Legal in Iowa
Gay marriage is now officially legal in Iowa after a unanimous state Supreme Court ruling this morning. It should be a few months until this goes into effect and would take at least two years to overturn with a state constitutional amendment.

The distinguished members of the Sioux City, Iowa, city council are pouting. They got a little uppity last month and voted against gay marriage. They forgot their jurisdiction only extends to pot holes and stop light cameras.

Nothing but a bunch of fat-headed goons with pasty white thighs.
Sioux City is the population center of the district that elected Steve King. There's a reason the airport abbreviation is SUX.
