Washington State is giving gay couples just about everything that comes along with marriage — just not the word itself. But what if legislators were able to move the ball in that direction? What would Democratic Gov. Christine Gregoire do with it? Let The Slog answer your wildest fantasies:

"I'll have to see a bill on my desk," she says.

But: Will you sign a marriage equality bill if it lands on your desk?

"I want to see a bill on my desk," she replies.

And: Presumably you don't want to see a bill on your desk just so you can veto the thing?

"I want to see a bill on my desk," the gov repeats.

Everything clear now?

Yay! I love you Christine Gregoire!

1. It seems the states are going to make

the good things happen that the Washington establishment will not.

2. Good for her...

I'd give anything to help a few people (like my wife) get beyond one of her first acts in office (raising the gas tax when gas was already nearly 4 bucks a gallon). My wife will like this.
