from VT going into Keene and other western NH towns that are far worse.

True. I can imagine Hanover has been a lost cause for decades.

Keene, Hanover, Jaffrey, Lyme (how Mark Steyn can live there is beyond me), Hinsdale, Claremont—all pretty much libtard havens these days. Don’t even get me started about Portsmouth.

Another state to cross off of my states-to-visit list.

This pretty much clinches it:

The town of Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, with a population of around 75 people and only 21 registered voters, picked Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) to be the president of the United States. Obama defeated Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) by a margin of 15 votes to 6.

Was this done without a order from a Supreme Court? The legislature, having solved all other problems, just decided to go ahead and re-define marriage, eh?

[OCCASparky]

Lynch lied, marriage died!

The legislature, having solved all other problems, just decided to go ahead and re-define marriage, eh?

Yep. No court action involved.

Well, at least they did it thru the proper channels (legislature) as opposed to the courts.

I agree.

Problem is, if you put it to a vote in this state, it would go down in flames (no pun intended).

So when are the history books going to be revised to show that the Founding Fathers were all actually closet Lesbians, Gays, Transgendered, and Bisexuals?!?!?

God forgive America—many of us are not a part of this foolishness, when the hammer comes down, please remember the remnant who DO honor You!!! :*(

See what happens when you fail to control your southern border?

[Anima Mundi]

The same people who say marriage is just a piece of paper, the same people who live together, have kids and THEN want a big wedding, the same people who give a big finger to traditions and cultural mores which have stood for a very long time seem to be the very same ones who think that in this ONE instance the tradition of marriage, the paperwork of “the man” is so essential. They need to decide which it is. Is marriage important and meaningful or is it just a piece of paper? Makes me feel like getting a divorce after 40 years and living in “sin” without sanction of the government enslavers.

[Retired Greyhound]

LOL. I’m sure it would. But since NH is a representative democracy, the people will have to vote for new lawmakers to reverse it.

[Walrus]

Can we agree, then, that homosexuality is NOT acceptable in our society?

[skywaker9]

Indeed, I can’t believe that NH will embrace special rights for the degenerates in their society....

See tag line.

I am fairly certain there is not popular support for this in NH.

NH didn't vote for this. The legislature did. What happens in the future remains to be seen. This may or may not be a big issue in 2010.
