It ends up in the same place. Someone will invoke "equal protection", and then you're back to the need for a Constitution change.

Deny people to recieve funds from a program they paid in to for years?

Homosexual Agenda - an idea for discussion about defeating the "gay" marriage cr*p.

Sounds like it wouldn't happen to me.

But what do I know?

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this ping list.

Once Republicans get elected and go to DC, they mostly turn into wimps, enablers, or just regular politican scum. Of course, there are notably good ones, but the Senators in particular seem to just want to play the game.

I still say, get the government at all levels entirely out of the marriage business.
Let private citizens and groups thereof settle this matter in their own way.

No, it would not work.
Only a constitutional amendment will stop homosexual activists.


For those who have not seen it:
H.J. Res. 56 and S.J. Res. 26
Amendment Text:

Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman.
Neither this Constitution or the constitution of any State, nor state or federal law,
shall be construed to require that marital status or the legal incidents thereof be conferred
upon unmarried couples or groups
.



This amendment acomplishes the goal of keeping ALL FORMS OF ALTERNAIVE LIFESTYLE MARRIAGE out of federal benefits.

define it as genetic male and female. You are opening up yourself to the challenge homosexuals at HRC are planning after the FMA. They will then set court cases with transexuals (mentally ill cosmetic surgery recipients) to challenge man and woman. Most courts solve the issue by going by the gender in the DNA.
