If it's not a states' rights issue in your mind, then it must be a federal issue. Now that we have established that as your view, what, pray tell, has NY done to violate the US Constitution?
I'm still looking for the part where it defines marriage. Please help me locate that passage. Oh, it's not in there? Are you sure? Well, DAMN...that must be one of those things that is left up to the states.
Perry does not support gay marriage, but said NY has the right to establish its own rules. I guess Perry should have said that NY doesn't have the right to establish its own rules on marriage? That would be mighty Banana Republic of him.
I am amazed at the outright lies and distortions a small group of people are spreading on here about Perry. What have we heard.. He FORCED young girls to take a shot. (outright lie) He was a democrat. (a quarter of a century ago when Republicans couldn't get elected dogcatcher in Texas) He was going to grab land away from landowners, and execute a warranty deed to the Mexicans. (never happened, and never was going to happen) He supports gay marriage. (outright lie)He's from Texas, therefore he's Bush. (That's some logic for you right there) He's GWB III. (who was GWB II?) He backed Rudy (over such superstar leaders as McCain, Romney, and Huckabee) He's only governor b/c of Bush. (and elected 3 times since) He's only governor b/c he runs against weak people. (If one calls KBH weak, then they don't know jack sh!t about Texas) He has no power. The Lt. Gov. has the power (which Perry was). He has hair. (oh the humanity)
It does not bother me 1 bit if people don't like him. But, if you're going to dislike him over issues, people need to make sure they know what the hell they're talking about before they (in general) start spreading outright lies. I like several of the candidates running or flirting with running. I think several could beat Obama. Does it behoove me or the party to trash talk them and spread lies about them? No. And I won't. And this small group of people on here who constantly lie about Perry need to realize that. Focus on the facts. The democrats will give us plenty of lies. We don't need each other doing it.
Perry SAID homosexual marriage in New York was FINE with him,that it's THEIR business.FINE FINE FINE, get it?
Not,”I so respect the tenth amendment that even though homosexual marriage is wrong,there is nothing to be done if a state wants to pass statutes that are wrong.”
If you read the two and you possess at least one brain cell capable of reading comprehension one of the above agrees with New York's homosexual agenda and one does not.
