This allowed them to work out the kinks. The event was invitation-only and I was the guest of the ownership and top brass (my step-dad being one of them) of the company which supplies them their fresh produce. The owner of...

Michael Steele is now saying that gay marriage is bad for small businesses. But it’s really just an argument against marriage in general. Jon Stewart points out the logical fallacies.
