Before I announce the winner of today's Lady's Brunch Burger Award (the LBBA), I need to once again give thanks to Paula Deen, that evil culinary genius. Without her brilliantly devious recipe for her non-delicious, non-nutritious, 1200-calorie Lady's Brunch Burger, I would have no Award to give! Many say Paula's cooking is unhealthy, but not me. I say it's genius. Paula is a provocateur. Paula is subversive. Paula's creations are edible social commentary that she dares you to eat! I hear you, Paula. I hear you.
Today's LBBA recipient! From her very own bio!
[She] is the president of the Institute for Marriage and Public Policy (www.iMAPP.org), whose motto is "strengthening marriage for a new generation" and whose unique mission is research and public education on ways that law and public policy can strengthen marriage as a social institution. [Except she thinks gays should be excluded.]Who is this happily married bigot? Who is the family-oriented hypocrite? Find out after the jump!
She is a nationally syndicated columnist, the author of three books on marriage (including most recently with University of Chicago Prof Linda Waite "The Case for Marriage: Why Married People Are Happier, Healthier, and Better-Off Financially"), and a leading voice of the new marriage movement. National Journal named her to the 2004 list of the most influential people in the same-sex marriage debate. [She has been one of the major secular voices opposing gay marriage.]
She appears frequently on major TV and radio and is frequently asked to lecture at colleges, universities and law schools. She has testified as an expert witness on marriage before the U.S. Senate and in various state legislatures. Her writings on marriage have appeared in The New York Times, The Weekly Standard, and the Wall Street Journal, as well as scholarly journals such as the Louisiana Law Review, and the Notre Dame Journal of Law, Ethics, and Public Policy.
She is a graduate of Yale (class of ’82). She lives with her husband and two children in Westchester, New York.
It's Maggie Gallagher!
That's right. Mrs. Gallager gets three Lady's Brunch Burgers! And let's face it, this won't be Mrs. Gallagher's first Lady's Brunch Burger. Or her last.
You can listen to her in all of her nonsensible hysteria as she screams at Michelangelo Signorile below:
