Why won't I marry you? Oh, yeah, I've got it ...

I'll give Brad Pitt credit for originality:

"Of course I'll marry you, honey. Just as soon as everyone else in the country who wants to get married is allowed to do so."

Could other men get away with that?

I hope not. It's a self-issued lifetime get-out-of-matrimony pass.

I guess it's intended to make a statement in support of same-sex marriage. Taken literally, however, it also would apply to polygamy, marriages of siblings and whatever other matrimonial arrangements anyone might devise.

Pitt may be a crusader for polygamy for all I know, because same-sex couples that want to marry can go to Massachusetts and do so. So what else is holding up his wedding to Angelina Jolie, the mother of his baby?

It couldn't be he's just a cad, could it?

Hey, Brad, if you really don't want to marry the woman, just say so.

Hey, I wouldn't marry her either, and I'm no cad. In 10 years, she will be a fright to look at, and she's already a nut.

It's just Bradspeak for "I'm keeping my options open for when the next Hot One comes along".

Truth knowing, he put the question to her and she turned him down.
