On Wednesday, state Rep. Tony Tinderholt, R-Arlington, filed a complaint with the State Commission on Judicial Conduct against state District Judge David Wahlberg. The alleged wrongdoing? That Wahlberg issued the order that allowed Suzanne Bryant and Sarah Goodfriend to obtain a marriage license, making them the first same-sex couple to legally marry in Texas.
Quorum Report editor Scott Braddock, via Twitter, had something to say about the Tinderholt complaint.
Rep Tony Tinderholt has been married five times but is very concerned about a couple that's been together for 30 years #TxLege

A man on his fourth wife is the biggest defender of the sanctity of marriage, y'all #TxLege

I believe it's his fourth wife because he was married to one of them twice, as I understand it. #TxLege

In fairness, if I had multiple failed marriages I might worry about the sanctity of the institution as well #TxLege

Texas Tea Party Republicans never fail to be a constant source of amusement. What a state with such elected zealots in it!
