They know they're in trouble so they bring out the marriage card to feed angry conservatives.
You nailed it.
We'll see who the real fools are in the coming congressional elections.
We wouldn't have to re-write the Constitution if activist judges didn't keep trying to change society with pronouncements that have the force of law without being approved by any majority of voters.
President Bush will hold a press conference in the Rose Garden of the White House to reiterate his support of the FMA Federal Marriage Amendment. The Rose Garden press conference is scheduled for Monday, June 5, a day before the Senate is expected to vote on the Constitutional Amendment.
The Senate votes on the Federal Marriage Amendment is only days away, there is no longer enough time to mail your Senators. However, You can contact your senators by e-mail by clicking here: E-Mail Your U.S. Senators.
You may use this sample text in your message:
Dear Senator [name]:
I strongly support Senate Joint Resolution 1 , the Marriage Protection Amendment, which will be brought up for consideration soon. It would amend the U.S. Constitution to state that Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman.
Marriage is more than a lifestyle choice. It makes a unique contribution to the common good of society by providing a way for a man and a woman to bring children into the world and to care for them in the context of a loving, committed, lifetime relationship. I ask you to vote in favor of S.J. Res. 1, in order to permanently protect the institution of marriage.
Sincerely,
[Your name] [Your address]

This shows how that at least half of the Senators in Washington are completely oblivious to the will of the people they supposedly represent. Every state which has put a state constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman on the ballot has had it passed by a lopsided margin. Here in GA it was 76%-24%, and even in very liberal OR it passed with 63%. Polls show that the voters of every state polled would approve such an amendment. Yet half of the Senate is in the pocket of the sodomite lobby and recites the same old lies as to why they refuse to vote the way their state's people want.
If the constituents of those Senators who are kowtowing to the sodomite lobby's money bags would just for once forget party loyalty for one election and throw the bums out at the next opportunity, maybe the next crop would pay a teensy weensy bit of attention to what the voters of their state want them to do.
IF you are a true conservative republican, your slap in the face is worse than if from a lib...He has been for this all along. You act as tho' he just woke up this morning and decided, "Oh, this will make me look good."
He is doing this out of long held conviction - not to impress YOU or anyone else...
From the down right self-righteous, judgmental posts I"ve seen in the past few weeks here by people who purport to be conservative pubs screaming that Bush is wrong wrong wrong - and now, it's "yeah, well, he's only doing right to look good'???
PUKE on all such
Guess what?
There are more issues in the world than immigration -
You want a president like Ji8mmy Carter who- during the long months of the Iran hostage situation, sat contemplating his navel in the rose garden because he couldn't think of two things at once...
oh forget it = talking to some people is like spitting in the wind. (following remarks are for others - you don't need to read)
as Thoreau said: "There are some who would find fault with the morning red - if they ever got up early enough"
(I said you didn't need to read it -go back to bed)
zzzz

Good grief, folks. NO JOKE and ,p.it's happening here also - wake up. This gay agenda is now being pushed into our schools across the country - they used to be 'under the radar' with books not listed as in the curriculum. Now they're openly pushing it for required curriculum , starting in kindergarten. you stop it NOW - or never, Take the example that passed the state legislature in California - that Gov. Schwarzenegger vows to veto http://www.claremont.org/localliberty/archives/004993.html wake up, Sheeple - this agenda has been pushed, hardcore, for 30 years - books for little kids in school have long ago eliminated any references or pictures of a husband/wife., father/mother relationship, While the Two Mommies and Two Daddies books are being taught. GOOD LORD, when are the sheeple going to wake up. Decent people can't conceive that such evil could actually permeate our schools - time to take of the blinders
This is obviously not going to pass the Senate. I think it may end up backfiring regardless.
