Didn't the EU recently threaten to throw out any country that did not embrace homosexual marriage?

They are certainly putting a lot of pressure on us to liberalize gay marriage. The reason gay marriage was rejected is because the Taoiseach (prime minister) said that a referendum on gay marriage would never pass, which is wholly correct.

Thankfully, the EU constitution was rejected, otherwise EU law would supersede all Irish law and then there would be no question of legalizing gay marriage. Anyway, the EU is now trying to introduce the important bits of their wretched constitution without the inconvenience of a democratic mandate.
