Said politicians got a stern talking-to by their DEMOCRAT party leaders, including future employment possibilities if they did NOT vote for homo marriage this time.

The fix is in. Always is.

“WTH???!!! How did this happen?”

NOTE: TOM CROSS is running for IL Treasurer; DAN RUTHERFORD, (whose last vote in the IL Senate was YES to Civil Unions) is running for IL Governor.

The debate raged for over three hours with SB 10 with supporters of the bill filling the time with a constant stream of emotion, personal testimony, and accusations of discrimination. Those who spoke out in favor of natural marriage included Rep. Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton), Rep. Dwight Kay (R-Edwardsville), Rep. Tom Morrison (R-Palatine), Rep. Mary Flowers (D-Chicago), and Rep. David Harris (R-Mount Prospect).

Former House minority leader Rep. Tom Cross (R-Plainfield) joined two other Republicans, Rep. Ron Sandack (R-Downers Grove) and Rep. Ed Sullivan (R-Mundelein) in breaking with the party platform and supporting the bill.

There is not risk for them, African Americans love socialism more than they hate gays. The people who went for Obama by a 95% margin are not going to do anything to stop this.
