Brad Pitt has apparently come up with the ultimate excuse for not getting married. Baby, we can’t get married until everyone can:
NEW YORK — Brad Pitt, ever the social activist, says he won’t be marrying Angelina Jolie until the restrictions on who can marry whom are dropped. “Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able,” the 42-year-old actor reveals in Esquire magazine’s October issue, on newsstands Sept. 19.
James Joyner wonders just how committed Pitt is to this ideal:
One presumes he is referring to homosexuals being barred from marrying others of the same sex in 49 of the 50 states, although taken literally he could be referring to bigamists, polygamists, animal lovers, or any number of others.
That’s the great thing about an excuse like this, you see, it’s just so open-ended.
