Thanks for all your entries. Here's a selection of some of the other better lines we received:
"I knew we were soul mates."
"Our religion and politics are joined at the hip."
"What God has joined together let no man put asunder."
"Why can't I quit you?"
"Certainly wasn't nature, must have been nurture!"
Wait, are we sinking?"
"Amendment won!"
"The North Carolina version of angel cake."
"I think we're stuck."
Why are they not cave men, that is the usual thing you print for those against the agenda?
