Quinnipiac University Poll ^ | 04-30-2009 | Quinnipiac University

American voters oppose 55 - 38 percent a law in their state allowing same-sex couples to marry, but support 57 - 38 percent allowing same-sex couples to form civil unions.

American voters reject 50 - 44 percent the argument that ending discrimination against homosexuals is as necessary today as ending discrimination against blacks was in the 1960s. Black voters say 45 - 44 percent it is as important, while whites say 51 - 43 percent it is not.

Voters support 50 - 44 percent the federal law allowing states to refuse to recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states, but say 54 - 39 percent that the federal law denying federal spousal benefits to same-sex partners should be repealed.

Society is paying too much attention to the needs of gays and lesbians, 49 percent of voters say, while 21 percent say there's too little attention and 22 percent say it's "about right."

Meaning just a matter of time until the same amount support gay marriage. Drip, drip, drip...the gay agenda. Take baby steps and immerse America in gayness like boiling a frog slowly. Eventually we just don't care anymore.

It took a day, but they're trying to intimidate.
Actually, they're trying to take over a day old thread when the conservatives probably aren't coming back to it.

I'm sick of the increasingly skewed language utilized in these polls by leftist liberal re-engineers. I've seen some of these, where answering “no” to same-sex "marriage" makes you somehow look like a hateful slave owner.
