A follow-up to this post yesterday: Apparently Daley didn't read the fine print when he signed the petition at the Chicago Gay & Lesbian Hall of Fame Wednesday. He thought it just supported same-sex marriage, not a pointed demand that the county begin issuing marriage certificates immediately. The Chicago Anti-Bashing Network is denying that they tried to trick our gullible mayor.
