    Same sex marriage is an abomination, and a perversion. County clerks who issue these licenses should be defeated at the next election. This will certainly be a voting issue for me, I will not support any pervert politician who supports same sex marriage.

In this episode, Observer reporter Patrick Michels speaks with freelance reporter and Lone Star Q publisher John Wright about how some Texas county clerks are preparing for a possible legal window for same-sex couples to marry in Texas.

And later in the show, Observer reporter Emily DePrang joins us to discuss why privatizing Terrell State Hospital—and picking a notorious company to run it—is a really bad idea.
