“Both sides of the polarizing issue have been waiting for Spitzer’s opinion
since last Friday when the mayor of New Paltz, a small college town 75 miles
north of Manhattan, married 25 same-sex couples without licenses. Village
Mayor Jason West now faces 19 criminal counts and could face jail time.”
I suppose it is “mean-spirited” of me, but I can’t help wondering whether
this Mayor would feel differently after spending time behind bars, knowing what we know about prison culture.
