Poll: Support for Gay Marriage Grows
CBS News ^ | April 28, 209

Posted on 04/28/2009 6:37:43 PM PDT by Alter Kaker

Forty-two percent of Americans now say same sex couples should be allowed to legally marry, a new CBS News/New York Times poll finds. That's up nine points from last month, when 33 percent supported legalizing same sex marriage.

Support for same sex marriage is now at its highest point since CBS News starting asking about it in 2004.

Twenty-eight percent say same sex couples should have no legal recognition – down from 35 percent in March – while 25 percent support civil unions, but not marriage, for gay couples.

As has historically been the case on this issue, liberals are more likely to support same sex marriage. Sixty-nine percent support the idea, while conservatives generally favor either civil unions (28 percent) or no legal recognition (44 percent).

The big issue going forward is the younger generation. They tend to be more pro-gay when it comes to polls. This isn’t surprising given what they learn in public schools but if we aren’t able to reach the younger generation and dissuade them of the garbage they learn from schools and the media then we will see gay marriage nationwide before too long.

"The result? The result you can see -- most of the people who graduated in the 60's, dropouts or half-baked intellectuals, are now occupying the positions of power in the government, civil service, business, mass media, and educational systems. You are stuck with them. You can't get rid of to them. They are contaminated. They are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern [alluding to Pavlov]. You can not change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior. In other words [for] these people the process of demoralization is complete and irreversible. "

In the fine print: “Poll was taken in San Francisco at 10 am on a weekday”.

Kidding but I wouldn’t be surprised.

This is funny. It would be alarming if it were true. If anything I believe the numbers are going the other way. Let me guess they over sampled liberals again.

When people are confronted with the actual sickening details of the homosexual lifestyle choice, they unanimously oppose it. The homos want to paint a rosy picture, but the reality of their promiscuous lifestyle and the extremely unhealthy acts they perform are shocking to almost everyone. I don’t buy this phony poll for one minute.

You lucky SOB. How did you get her to agree to that? :)

Right-oh. CBS omitted to mention that the polling sites consisted exclusively of the Upper West Side, Fire Island, and the Castro.

yea riiiiiiiggghhhhtttt

what utterB/S maybe it is me but I travel quite a lot an dtalk to new people every day and I have hardly met more than a handful who supports homo marriage.

yet another push to say hey you people who are against it are the minority

no we are not and even if i were the only one in the world I still would not accept them and tell them that they are not married at all

ever said to a homo who got hold of a kid?
“does he look like his dad/mother”

the face of the homo is jaw dropping which then turns to red then turns to “I don’t need a man.woman to be a parent”

no you don’t but you need two people of the different sex to have a child , bye

do not f millions in this country do not vote, because they cannot be bothered, because they feel all parties are a waste of time or for other reasons.
I know plenty of them and not one thinks homos are normal people and certainly do not think their agenda is to be accepted.

wonder where the poll was taken, maybe places like back bay(ironic) Boston or san freako or maybe other places with a lot of homos

prefer to call them homosexuals/homos or anything else as implying gay is what they want and isn’t that negative
they hijacked the word and personally I would call them what they are and gay isn’t one of them

karl Marx said that their ideology can not work by force but they have t get into positions of power and influence
Ayers knew that his terrorist ways would not work or win the people so

lets have a look around years later
teachers=most liberals
lawyers=most liberals or Dems
judges seem to be more liberal
professors=certainly more liberals
shrinks=liberals for the most part

they are what Marx wanted and he got it
Then we now have bozo the clown in office guided by Ayers and funded by Soros and his terrorist friends

They have got where they want to be now they will keep us down , remember Alinsky’s rules, marginalise etc
