The incoming members of the GOP majorities in the state House and state Senate have made it clear that taxes and job creation are Priority #1 - but as the article states, there is gonna be momentum towards putting a constitutional amendment on the ballot for 2012.
Although not personally acquainted with any of the GOP freshmen, I suspect that most, if not, all, are conservatives and wouldn't be opposed to putting a gay marriage ban on the ballot for 2012.
Comments or opinions - anyone?
The horror! The horror!
Boo-hoo
Why are these sick perverts so obsessed with getting married ? Aren’t they happy just doing their disgusting act behind closed doors ?
Wouldn't matter. All it will take is for one liberal activist masquerading as a judge to overturn the will of the people. And I am sure there are quite a few of them in Minnesota.

It is a great move, I just hope it is not in vain.
Look at California. We pass a Proposition: The court says we need a Constitutional Amendment. We pass a Constitutional Amendment, the court is currently in the process of saying “oh wait, we lied — it doesn’t matter WHAT you do, we will legislate from the bench!”
Best of luck and I really hope your experience is better.

YAY
The poor babies are in shock? Oh dear.
>>> I suspect that most, if not, all, are conservatives and wouldn’t be opposed to putting a gay marriage ban on the ballot for 2012.
Won’t matter much either way in the long run. The issue will ultimately be decided in the Supreme Court, as the federal constitution trumps local initiatives.
The push is to mandate recognition of gay marriage under the Equal Protection clause. That is highly debatable, but I don’t see any way around the Full Faith and Credit clause.
Placemark.
Let the state marriage referendum resume, now that the moral anarchists are out of power.
The anti gay marriage bill is a jobs effort. When all the Gays move to Massachusetts, the jobs they leave behind will be opened up for others.

Good! The LAST thing the country needs is another Massachusetts!
