This should bring more readers to FR. They'll want to see for themselves, what the hubbub is all about.

Salon is still around?

They're just miffed that we "amateurs" broke the CBS memogate story, while they were getting manicures, or whatever it is metrosexuals do.

I don't know - I think this article will make this site even more popular than it already is - and not for the issue itself. It was how it was handled, in my opinion - that people didn't care for.

The vote by the citizens of that state should have come first - before any change was made -

just a thought -

"The right-wing echo chamber Free Republic, where private citizens spit pseudonymous venom, is also a rich treasure trove of nastiness. In late 2003 when the Massachusetts Supreme Court voted to allow marriage rights for same-sex couples, the Freepers went off..."

One of the problems of liberalism is they have no core beliefs or foundation. Take marriage. It's not just an agreement between two persons, male and female, or any other combination. It's a covenant involving God. Marriage is between a man and a woman AND God. Marriage without God is not marriage. It's simply a legal partnership. I have a hard time believing that God would be a partner in a marriage other than between a man and woman.

And that's the way it's been all down through the ages since God created Adam and Eve, until the progressive/socialist/liberals got involved and brought government forces to bear. Now that we have the income tax, and special allowances for married persons, and health insurance policies forced on industry by government, and other government enforced regulations that offer benefits to married persons and spouses, unions, medicare, social security, etc, all with special provisions for married persons, we NOW have a problem. Now the government wants to solve the problem they created in the first place by eliminating GOD from the marriage covenant. From the day they do this forward, it will be "Those whom GOVERNMENT has joined together let no one put asunder."

"Can I marry my mule?" asked another.

Another responded: "Sorry. Next step is to give them your boys. They want the age of consent lowered to around 10 years old. Your mule will have to wait in line."

"There is nothing 'normal' about homos," another added. "Even the wild animals know better (Except male goats. They're really filthy)."

What's the problem? These are great quotes! The liberals pucker up at these examples, but how many readers crack up and think, "I've gotta check out Free Republic".

This trollman er Follman is a real maroon.

Great post. It reminds me of the book that Barney Frank and Governor McGreevy co-authored. They both love birds apparently, because their book was titled, "I Never Touched A Parakeet, But I Kissed A Cockatoo".

The Truth hurts, it isn't venom, it is a gathering of people who care about this country.

Salon probably just pissed we get more hits.

Salon is just pissed because we have made national headlines for our part in showing the rest of America what we already knew about Dan Rather.

It's telling that they had to go all the way back to 2003 for the "shocking" quotes about the Massachusetts Supremes' crime against logic and the nuclear family. What they fail to realize is that all of us "pseudonymous venom" spitters is that we make up the majority. If the truth was told about that court decision, everyone would know that the advocates of same-sex marriage in the legislature broke their own law in order to thwart an anti-gay marriage referendum that should have been on a statewide ballot before that decision.

So the liberals don't want pseudonymous venom? No problem, just

Or on my faith, my family, or my country.

Ok, who is responsible for the Mule comment? Come on out of the closet and tell us. Was it you Congressman? Or maybe you Sgt. Come on....

Nothing to see here. Moveon.org, moveon.
