"I'm very proud of her ... . Deep down, way down, I'd love to have children with her."

There's just something inherently funny about a homosexual marriage article by Cox News Service.

I recived an email from my big brother last night. He is on the mailing list for moooooveon and he forwarded it to everyone on his email list. The email stated that "we need to stop this amendment" My brother (whom I always thought was more intellegent than this) added his 2 cents, stating that he cannot "for the life of me" understand why this is such an issue when the war in Iraq, and the economy are more important.... my reply...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love you, but I'm sorry, I do not agree with you here. Marriage is between a MAN and a WOMAN, the whole thing comes down to anatomy, and the definition of marriage as it states in the dictionary, and what marriage has been for all of civilization. A dog is a dog, a boat is a boat, and a book is a book. Should we change the definition of any of these because a small minority wants something that isn't real? Before you go off on me here, do you remember my friend *? As gay as a 3 dollar bill, one of my best friends, and I loved him and I was heartbroken when he died. I would give him the same argument. I dont buy the crap with this being compared to black rights or the right for women to vote. Gays CHOOSE to be gay, and I have known quite a few gays and lesbians who all say this. Blacks do not CHOOSE their skin color, nor do women CHOOSE the fact they dont have a penis.

I am grateful that both senators from my state are voting for this amendment, one of who is Zell Miller, a democrat, so this proves that this in not a "vast right wing conspiracy" theory. I am happy that they are voting with the majority of this country, which all polls show more than 50% of this country dont want gay marriage.

Please, *, I love you, but dont ever sent me anything else from moveon.org. I think it is a communist, fascist site, and I am disappointed that you believe the garbage that they spew. They still have the Bush/Hiter ad running? Did our parents not teach us respect for the office of the president? I learned that lesson, I am surprised that you didn't. No, I have not turned into a "nazi-warmonger" as I am sure I am called on sites like moveon and the democratic underground. I have always considered myself an independent voter, never ever have I voted straight down a party line, but who I felt best was able to do the task at hand.

I will never vote for Kerry. I feel, as Zell Miller does, so disappointed with the democratic party, that there is no way I will leave my security, or the security of my children to someone as indecisive as John Kerry. He is a man who when he comes home from Vietnam throws his medals (or were they someone else's?) over a fence, testifies to atrocities committed, and is now running on the fact that he was a war hero. He isn't even legally able to hold office according to the constitution. Joe Leiberman was the best choice for the party. Do you support Hillary Clinton when she said recently that the tax breaks were nice, but we are going to "take it away from you for the common good"? Yes, we live in America, not communist Russia, and taxing the "rich" to support people too lazy to get out and work is absolutely ridiculous, and I cannot believe that you would agree with this!

If the republicans are dividing this great nation of ours, why is a democrat speaking at the republican convention? I see that as unity, not division. Oh yes, the democrats have Ron Reagan speaking, but just on the stem cell issue, he has never been a republican, so it cant be stated that he is the "republican" at the democratic convention.

I am truly surprised that you are a member of moveon, and I must say, I am disappointed by this. I thought you were more intelligent then that.

I love you

I havent heard back from him yet, truth hurts I guess....

It seems that Mark fell in love with his pony, named Pixel, and in 1993 actually "married" her in a private ceremony. "She's gorgeous. She's sweet. She's loving," Mark was quoted as saying in unbridled affection.

No pun intended, of course.

Like Smoltz, he worries that if gay marriage or gay unions are allowed, there would also be nothing in the law to stop couples such as Mark and Pixel from also getting hitched.

Let me guess. With very little fear of being wrong, I'd say there's a good chance that Jay Bookman and John Smoltz don't bat for the same team..

...their real underlying concern turns out to be a rather odd fear of bestiality.

I stopped right there. It is not "fear", it's disgust, and it's certainly not "odd", except, perhaps, in the mind of this cretin.

How am I harmed by gay marriage?

1. Societal approval to an unnatural, disease-laden and disease-exchanging behavior.

2. Unfair status affecting my taxes for those who receive benefits that they are not sufficiently procreative enough to warrant.

3. Slippery slope that threatens further tax burdens when polygamy and other unnatural unions enter the picture.

"pushing for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would define marriage as a union between a man and a woman". Maybe they should change it to male and female humans or something like that.

No. It's the liberal system of wierdos declaring themselves as a minority/victims so they can get special privileges enacted into law by un-elected judges.

Really, reasoning from the same context as the pro-gay marriage folks, their is no reason not to allow bestiality. That was Justice Scalia's entire point.

Yesterday Michael Medved sent a gay activist to insanity when he said that being gay was a TRAGEDY!!! The guy was beside himself with anger!! Go Michael.

If any of you have not listened to Michael Medved, you should do yourselves a favor and tune in.....he's the BEST!

I read a psychiatrist's account of a man who fell in love with a polar bear in a circus.. He would try to get close to it and was almost killed by the bear ...the psychiatrist worked with him till he finally got over his obsession with the bear, but he was never happy after that....(true story)

"What's next?" Braves pitcher John Smoltz said, when asked his opinion about gay marriage. "Marrying an animal?"

Rosie proved that it's possilbe for a cow to get married.

Why can't I marry my brother? We're both male, so it's not as if birth defects would be a problem.

Time and time again, when opponents of gay marriage and gay unions are asked to explain
their position, their real underlying concern turns out to be a rather odd fear
of bestiality.


Looks like the author is either not listening to about the real 90% of the other
"moral speed bumps" mentioned in the discussion, such as incest, polyamory, and pedophilia.

I'm NOT saying those are objective of the gay marriage advocate...just going with the
Rick Santorum line of "how will you deny those as 'rights' if you
find a right to gay marriage?"
