Nothing stops these bleeping companies, including Proctoscope Games, from offering any private benefits that they see fit. No, they want to see it foisted on other unwilling businesses that they are afraid will have a competitive advantage by NOT offering these benefits, cloaking it in the rhetoric of concern for sads. I am so mad I could spit.

My bad. Too little sleep and a spike in blood sugar has made me pretty looped out. : (

I'm definitely not feeling like my usual self these days...and I guess it's showing.

Sucks to be me sometimes.

No, the burden for a constitutional amendment should have remained squarely upon the shoulders of liberals on almost every issue.

These lying, perverted, liberal activist judges have turned the constitution upside down so that it can mean exactly the opposite of what it always did mean.

Liberals still don't have the votes (even after years of public ed. brainwashing of children)so they cheat. The legal history of the country had always opposed their perverted ideas and kept them at bay.

What we need to do is impeach, fire, jail, any activist judge who tries to reshape the law according to the twisted ACLU viewpoint.

---They can step in and rule a state amendment unconstitutional (not caring a whit about truth) by perverting the intent of the 14th amendment.---

Yes, but if they bump it up to the federal level they'll bring a federal constitutional amendment down on their heads and untold loss of power to the left. They would have to get a federal court ruling and that would bump it up to the supremes. In the unlikely event that SCOTUS ruled in favor of gay marriage ALL the state constitutional amendments would be struck down. The political backlash would be devastating!

The beauty of the state constitutional amendments is that they are out of reach of the state courts except for interpretation, which still won't get Fred and Fred married.
