Congress, Obama team up to kill marriage protections

This legislation would repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a 1996 law which discriminates against lawfully married same-sex couples

Except for a few deep-blue states, they're NOT "lawfully married."

“The introduction of the Respect for Marriage Act responds directly to a call from President Obama for congressional action on the issue.Why? what about jobs stupid.

[Joe Boucher]

The congress and this marxist poser punk is destroying our economy. Crapping on long held international friends in lieu of terror nations. Trying to foist socialism on us and to beat all they drag out the homosexual agenda to mess up our children.
Hey the majority voted for these ass holes.

[ScottinVA]

Whatever happened to 0bama’s assertion that he believed marriage was to be between one man and one woman? Oh, yeah... that was just a campaign statement. It’s expired now.

Obama is losing gay support, and, most importantly, gay fundraising (which is disproportionally large) due to the failure of repeal of 'don't ask, don't tell'

This is a bone they hope to sneak through while nobody is looking.

Man50D you support all this and fight against the Republican party. How do you explain yourself?

[MRadtke]

So now he’s worried about State’s rights? Maybe we should review Roe vs. Wade.

[kevinm13]

Marriage is a sacred institution blessed by the church and only between a man and a woman. No ifs, ands or butts.

[driftdiver]

“it interferes with states’ rights,”

coming from that faker that statement makes my stomach churn

[NurdlyPeon]

...it interferes with states' rights,...

How does forcing a state to recognize gay "marriage" protect states rights?

[shooter223]

Respect for Marriage Act ......... Is it just me,or is the intent of most bills introduced by the libs the exact opposite of the title of the bill?

[Venturer]

***Marriage is a sacred institution blessed by the church and only between a man and a woman. No ifs, ands or butts.***

Youe mean it was. The is the new liberal religion, The Obama religion.

[docbnj]

Hey Nadler! According to your interpretation, this means that New York State should honor my Florida Concealed Carry Weapons permit. States Rights, according to your argument!

Bwaahahahah!

[rarestia]

Oh, yeah... that was just a campaign statement. It’s expired now.

LOL! Never thought of it that way.

This is not news I wanted to read on a Sunday morning. This Administration and the liberals in Congress are the best sleight-of-handers I've ever seen. While the country is in a tizzy over health care and energy, they're federalizing college student loans and deconstructing the sacred institution of marriage. I'm sick, simply sick. Who will stand up anymore, folks? Who is going to put his or her life on the line to stand up to these Marxists? This no longer about words. Forceful acceptance of the liberal social mores are becoming a reality. This is a war of attrition and THEY'RE WINNING!

The Constitution is NOT negotiable!

[Man50D]

Man50D you support all this and fight against the Republican party. How do you explain yourself?

How do you explain that you continuously fail to understand this is a Conservative website and that there is has been a growing fundamental difference between Republicanism and Conservatism over the years because the former has incrementally moved towards socialism to expand its voter base?

It's up to the OP wing of the socialist Republicrat party if they want to return to the Conservative fold but I'm not joining them to try and convince them.

[Man50D]

So now he’s worried about State’s rights? Maybe we should review Roe vs. Wade.

Over turning it is one thing since Article 1 Section 8 does not grant Congress the power to regulate marriage but replacing it with another piece of federal legislation only defeats the very purpose Nadler claims he is trying to support. It couldn't be more disingenuous.

[ansel12]

You tell me little buddy, name which party that you support. I’m an Independent, so I’m not involved but I can tell that you are on a mission against conservatives.

I challenge you to position yourself coward!

Ding, Ding, Ding. We have a winner! This is spot on. If these crumbs had any respect for marriage they wouldn't be trying to protect every lessie, pervert, trannie, fornicator, or social malcontent that ever took a breath. All I'm waiting for is for “Baghdad Bob” Gibbs to explain that this is all for the good of the economy!
