It sure felt good here in Kansas to vote for that amendment and see it pass. Now on to the federal government...

[Qwinn]

Okay - here's my questions for anyone who can answer:

1) Has any state -not- passed such an amendment where it's come up for a vote, and has it always required a two-thirds majority?

2) What are the 18 states with such bans so far? The only ones I can conclude from this article are Kansas and Missouri.

Was this the original headline? If so, you've got to love how the MSM tries whenever they can to subtly affect public opinion and spin things their way. Look at how the headline is phrased. If someone glances quickly, what's the first thing they see?

Kansans Approve Gay Marriage Amendment

And I'm pleading ignorance here, but was this actually a "Gay Marriage Amendment"? Or was it a "Let's define what marriage was, is, and always should be: One Man, One Woman" amendment?

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Have you notice the MSM/LIBS/GAYS propaganda when ever something like this takes place ?
For example ?
Remember last year after the horrible ratings, showing, movie flopping ( I am sorry, I am at a loss for betters words to use here for that movie ) of the movie Alexander ?
And the liberals, the Gay media and the propagandist said that the reason that the movie did not do well is because the average American is not " intellectual ready " for the movie, or not artistically astute for the movie ( this is such arrogance, and condescending attitude of the lib/gays ).
And, how they never except the fact that it is their failed and perverted sick agenda that is failing.
That their lifestyle is what is the problem, and the average American just does not want it or accept it.
And in this article, it was said that the vote and the passing of the amendment " is not reflective on the typical Kansasonain ( please forgive me for not being able to come up with a better term )" from this Gay Propagandist.
This sounds so much of the leftist, MSM, GAY agenda lies and deception.
This is the same BS lies and deception that we heard from the Liberals and the MSM about how 60 % of the average Americans believe that Terry's feeding tube should be pulled.
Have you noticed ? that ? that is what the MSM and the Liberals have been saying about the average American opinions and beliefs, that most of Americans come in line in what the liberals believe ?
To the contrary !!
Most Americans DO NOT ! believe or accept what the liberals, the gays, feminist believe.
Did you read in this article, that Mr. Brown said that eventually, the moderates will stand up and oppose this amendment. ?
This is nothing more than the liberals, MSM, Gays propaganda machine spreading their lies and deceit, and brainwashing the SHEEPLE into believing that this is what the American public wants.
I don't know, maybe someone can articulate in better words and meaning than I can in what I am trying to say here, in other words, the left, libs, gays, all say that " This is what most Americans want " ,, when in reality ? this is not true, and it is even to the contrary.
One can see the depravity in their gross DELUSIONS that they believe that is what the typical American wants.
However, their gross delusions, will keep on winning us elections for years to come.

Good for you Kansans. But the thread title had me thinking "WTH?"

[LiteKeeper]

How long do you think it will take for Judical Tyranny to overturn the will of the people?

[Arthur McGowan]

Wait a minute, was it that the voters rejected an anti-gay-marriage ban amendment, or did the voters approve a resolution preventing an amendment that would ban the illegalization of gay marriage?

[ozzymandus]

It will probably be about 75% when all the rural districts check in. I'm looking forward to all the editorials and letters in the local papers telling us how stupid and bigoted we are. The paper I read most has had about 5 editorials a week urging defeat of the amendment, along with several letters a day.

Good for Kansas!

I believe we are beginning to see a backlash against the Will-and-Grace anything-goes crowd.

“Eventually, moderate Kansans are going to stand up, bend over and pull their pants down and say they've had enough when they finish their anal sex,” Brown Fudge said.

Well, I have always been proud that I was born in Salina.

[kassie]

Way to go Kansas!!!

[prairiebreeze]

That's the KS I know and love! My home state.

[Maigrey]

Eventually, moderate Kansans are going to stand up and say they've had enough,” Brown said.

Hate to tell you this, bucko, but the moderates have spoken....

[Kozak]

Tut tut. Some how our Judicial Dictorship will find a way to nullify it. I have no doubt in that.

[SeaBiscuit]

Come on Dorthy, were off to Kansas.

[redgolum]

This amendment does more than just ban gay marriage, it also limits "the rights and privileges of marriage" to those who have been legally married. In other words, no more common law type marriages, and no health benefits for people living together without benefit of marriage.

A good amendment, but I just hope some nutty federal judge doesn't reverse it. But I bet that will happen.

[mathluv]

The title scared me! I thought that it meant Kansas SUPPORTED gay marriage.

[azhenfud]

Maybe queers and their advocates will learn there is no such thing as Same Sex Marriage.

[Let's Roll]

The vote is not reflective of the typical Kansan, said Steve Brown of Prairie Village, a member of Kansans for Fairness, a group that worked to defeat the amendment.

“Eventually, moderate Kansans are going to stand up and say they've had enough,” Brown said.

And black is white and up is down.

But will it survive the courts?
