I know talk radio seeks to attract listeners and generate controversy, but today a radio host had a new take on the recent election of Deval Patrick as Massachusetts' new governor. According to host Michael Graham, Patrick has, in the past week, stated that civil rights mandate that there be no prohibitions on the marriage between any adults. This would, literally, include incest and polygamy, asserted Graham. Graham also noted that Patrick, after running on a no new taxes pledge, has since the election announced huge new taxes on anhyone making over $50,000 a year; will prohibit the state police from enforcing a recent agreement with the DOJ by which they would arrest illegal immigrants who commit a crime; and has renounced his pledge to work with Republicans in the Legislature.
This is gonna be good.
The People's Republic of Massachusetts is a funny state. I laugh because I do not live there but they keep voting for socialists and Marxists and never learn their lesson...
And you believe the good people's republic of taxachusettes has a problem with that?
So glad to be firmly planted in Texas.......
Massachusetts: Making California Seem Sane, since 1960
This is actually good news. Maybe now all those fence-sitters in the gay "marriage" debate can see where that ruinous road leads. First gay "marriage", then polygamy, then incest marriage, then man/boy marriages, man/animal civil unions, etc.. The sky's the limit. The key to the courts reasoning will be : "Hey as long as it's consensual".
"They're really not as liberal as many think... just incredibly stupid."
How can you tell the difference?
There's a movement in Massachusetts called "polyamory"- look it up and see what they have in mind.
Patrick's comments fall into line with what the "poly people" want!

Only if you don't live in MAss.
I admire how diligently the prized few conservatives / FReepers in that misbegotten state have worked to get MAss's sanctity of marriage plebiscite to their voters.
You may be on to something there. I've been studying them for a long time. Being the enlightened thinkers they know they are they desperately want to feel good and think good things about themselves. But when there's pain, they just can't seem to associate cause with effect so they do the same thing except even harder this time. They admit to the inanities of life but being the descendants of those who never had the gumption to keep moving West... wadda ya gonna do?
Everybody needs to get behind Mr. Patrick for the Democrat nomination for president.
Don't think that hasn't been his plan from the get go!
We are not all crazy but the indoctrination that goes on in the public scholl's here makes the madrassah's in Pakistan look like child's play!
ah that would be "schools", and yes I did attend..
ahem
My daughter in Boston is desperately trying to find a school situation for my just turned schoolage grandson.The private school nearby is locked up years in advance and the Catholic schools are not much better than the public schools which are unthinkable and both she and my son-in-law work 60-80 hour weeks so homeschooling is not practical unless she quits her job. I have told her well.. get your priorities straight here but I am talking Martian when I suggest she cut her hours by half. Oh well. I suspect they will end up hiring a live-in tutor or something. They can afford it.
Without looking it up, but hearing tales of the People's Republic from my daughter in Boston, I surmise that it is a sanctioned union of any two or more adults having a maximum of four feet each.
Thanks for nothing, William Weld & Mitt Romney.
...or hooves.
