Go Gordon Fox and go RI!
And already, one of the bigots in the house, Rep. Arthur Corvese of North Providence has accused Fox of being too liberal, that he'll let gay marriage happen. Oh the horrors!
Even in RI we've got idiots like Corvese.
But this is historic. The power structure in RI goes like this:
Speaker
Finance Committee Chair
Senate President
and way way down at the bottom of the list is the governor.
I can tell you that two of the three in that short list above are gay. Fox is one of them of course, and the other one doesn't have a hyphenated last name.
RI is an interesting place, I'll tell you that.
