What a surprise.  What an absolutely shocking surprise. 

Utah Legislature snuffs out final gay-rights bill

A House committee rejected Rep. Jennifer Seelig’s HB160, which would have offered two, unmarried cohabiting adults — including same-sex couples — rights of inheritance and medical decision making for one another.

Nope.  We can’t even allow same-sex couples to have inheritance rights, or make medical decisions if one is incapacitated.   Let alone protect gays from job discrimination, let alone allow them to adopt.  No common ground there.  Same sex couples need to consider this carefully when planning trips that might take either or both of them into or through Utah.  Getting sick or injured could be just the beginning of your nightmare in Mormonland.

I’m going to have a heart attack from this surprise.
