Gay-Marriage Fight Heads to New Jersey
By KEITH J. WINSTEIN
The battle over gay rights will move to New Jersey and the federal government, advocates said, after Tuesday's narrow rejection of same-sex marriage by Maine voters in a hard-fought contest.
The Democrat-controlled legislature in New Jersey, which currently recognizes same-sex couples in civil unions, is under pressure to pass a bill authorizing gay marriage before Gov. Jon Corzine ends his term in mid-January.
Mr. Corzine, a Democrat unseated in Tuesday's election, said he would sign such a bill. His successor, Republican Chris Christie, opposes same-sex marriages.
"New Jersey is at the very top of our list, and it's going to happen in the next few weeks if it happens at all," said Maggie Gallagher, the president of the National Organization for Marriage, which opposes same-sex marriages. "They're doing it in a lame duck, because it's as far away from an election as possible."
Gay-marriage advocates have resisted "civil union" licenses, saying the separate term is demeaning and the status isn't honored by many employers.
Some gay-rights advocates said, their priorities have shifted away from the ballot box and toward nonmarital issues.
Thursday, a U.S. Senate committee held a hearing on a bill that would prevent businesses from discriminating against employees on the basis of sexual orientation or "gender-related" mannerisms. Thomas Perez, an assistant attorney general, called the bill, known as the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, "a top legislative priority for the Obama administration."

“GENDER RELATED MANNERISMS”????????
I wonder how that language would be interpreted.
so here we go again .
they will try and impose their perverted sick agenda onto another state.
Quick quick quick do it as you have nothing to lose now sign it they say and then they wonder why more and more folks are saying piss off with your agenda
the sooner they get married, the sooner they’ll kill each other in divorce court.
The sooner they are allowed to get married, the sooner they will start indoctrinating your kids in the public schools.....as early as kindergarten!!!
Just like they are doing in Massachusetts.
It’s odd that a lot of gays don’t want to get married or be involved in this lunancy.
That's why they CAN get "married."
Ousted Governor Corzine’s successor, Republican Chris Christie, like President Barack Obama, opposes same-sex marriages. Bammy sez, “I do not support gay marriage. Marriage has religious and social connotations, and I consider marriage to be between a man and a woman.”
What same-sex marriage has done to Massachusetts
Its far worse than people realiize.

Take a good look at your future,New Jersey.I hope you have better luck getting this on the ballot to vote it out than we did in Massachusetts!
CHEATERS!
I always have to laugh at the urine-stream media calling a 53% win “narrow” when Øbama won by that percentage.
Normalized for the unbelievable leverage and resources the gaystapo had at their disposal, I’d say that the pro-marriage forces probably actually won by 80% in today’s dollars.
I’m not worried about the alleged “closeness” of the voting results.I’m encouraged that this still can’t win even in LIBERAL states like Maine and California!(Where traditional marriage supporters are outspent and local government is against them!).Even Florida,which went for Obama,defeated gay “marriage” by over SIXTY percent.We’re 31 for 31!Momentum is on the side of traditional (REAL) marriage!
That’s because there are complications involved. You’d actually have to know the name of your anonymous sex partner that you met through a public restroom gloryhole before you could marry him.
Doing what "for generations?" Indoctrinating our kids?
Possibly. But if true, the indoctrination has more than likely occurred under cover of darkness and with older and more socially vulnerable pre-pubescent kids who might be more easily persuaded not to rat out the pervert teachers - not in such an "in your face" manner with kids as young as kindergarten with conscientious parents not even being allowed to opt their kids out.
