Especially interesting is the author's comment about bride and groom and how the law has ALREADY defined marriage as between a man and a woman, something that I have not heard anyone say on the news. I studied some law in college and remember reading that laws are often defined by how they are carried out. If you follow the Rant link to Siriano's website you'll find an interesting blog where he gives answers from a Christian perspective, very interesting.

If gays are not turning to nature or religion for support, they are forcing the comparison to civil rights. At one time, they remind us, it was wrong for a white to marry a black, and eventually the courts had to strike those laws down. Some day, they claim, we’ll look back on our aversion to gay marriage and laugh. I doubt that. Righting wrongs is not the same as legitimizing wrongs. We were supposed to laugh about our aversion to abortion, too. Forty million dead babies later, and we have not yet found the punch line.

Technically, it is putting Freeper screen names in the "To:" box and bringing the article/comment to those Freepers attention. "Look at this" ...

Here is a link. Go to post #116 first (link should take you right to that post), and look under "Pictures". That will give a walk-thru for picture posting. That article gives a lot of very useful and helpful tips on HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), which you need to post on FR. There are other related links and information there as well.

Click Here.

You might want to bookmark that article. Bookmarking puts an article on your FReeper Profile page for quick and easy referencing. See post #53 & 59 for bookmarking instructions.

If you have any questions or problems, feel free to send me a Freep mail or a note and we’ll work through it.

Good article. Welcome to Free Republic - you're gonna like it here.

One of my questions for gays is, if they don't think marriage should be limited to a man and a woman, why is it that with so many of the gay couples that are getting "married", one of them (especially among the lesbians) looks somewhat feminine, while the other "partner" is very masculine-looking. In some lesbian couples, it's difficult to tell that one of them is not actually a real man due to the manner of dress, the haircult, etc.

Also, I Google Searched for the definition of 'Ping' and come up with
THIS source's definition (pertinent excerpt):

Loosely, ping means "to get the attention of" or "to check for the presence of" another party online. Ping operates by sending a packet to a designated address and waiting for a response. The computer acronym (for Packet Internet or Inter-Network Groper) was contrived to match the submariners' term for the sound of a returned sonar pulse.

Ping can also refer to the process of sending a message to all the members of a mailing list requesting an ACK (acknowledgement code). This is done before sending e-mail in order to confirm that all of the addresses are reachable.

"Forty million dead babies later, and we have not yet found the punch line."

Now you are touching on the REAL PROBLEMS that created this immigration crisis to begin with . .

Q: Why does the United States Government permit wholesale illegal Mexican immigration?

A: For the workers.

Q: Why does the United States Government need foreign workers (not just Mexicans)?

A: It does not have enough labor force to meet the service sector and other blue collar work sector demands and growth within it's economy.

Q: Why does the United States Government not have enough workers to meet economic demand?

A: Over TWENTY MILLION AMERICAN WORKERS HAVE BEEN ABORTED OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS.

Q: If over twenty million American workers have been aborted over the past twenty years, who is going to pay for (read: generate taxes) the Social Security of the baby-boomer generation (now reaching critical mass)? (NOTE: BABY BOOMERS have killed as many Americans as Lenin and Stalin did Russians.)

A: Mexican workers.

Final Question: If they had survived, who would they have to thank for it and WHO WOULD THE TWENTY MILLION ABORTED AMERICANS HAVE VOTED MOST FOR?

Any questions?

Here’s another solution. Stop killing American Citizens before they draw their first breath.
