yes Virginia...there is a plot to overthrow the Republic with a Marxist dictatorship...
We can no more pass a law allowing gay marriage than we can pass one allowing gays to procreate anally. A law doesn’t make the sky red or grass purple.
You may be right to a degree, but I think it’s one of exhaustion — you can’t die on every hill and fight every battle - and the left is attacking everywhere. I think some folks have just said “let them have their fag marriage - they won’t like it anyway because these are not committment type folks” — and just given up on fighting the issue.
Not saying that’s right, just a guess as to why this is - as Barone says - one of the very few times where we’ve “moved left.” I think its just battle fatigue.
RE: We can no more pass a law allowing gay marriage than we can pass one allowing gays to procreate anally
That is why gays are asking and clamoring for changes to ADOPTION LAWS.
Yes, just what we need right now.
Another disastrous, stupid, idiotic, insensible, moronic social experiment.
When all of us in the collective that was once the American Republic are compelled by threat of force to recognize two men as being married ... to each other ... then we can all rejoice in yet another triumph for progressivism.
"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other."-- John Adams
Church Attendance In America Is Declining

Correlation?
BS....Every state which held a referendum on the issue said “no gay marriage”.
“thanks to the NFT and NEA propaganda....people are dumber than 15 years ago...”
Indeed. I think the rise of Islam and socialism are in fact God’s judgment on the West for rejecting his Biblical standards in many areas, certainly including but not limited to marriage and family.
I think Vaquero is right.....people are DUMBER! Wonder how many people REALLY know what being gay is?
RE: BS....Every state which held a referendum on the issue said no gay marriage.
Not something to really cheer about. This article does show that a majority of Americans still oppose gay marriage today, but that majority is SHRINKING as the years go by.
Wait another ten years and you just might be UNPLEASNTLY surprised.
It’s not just the left that is pushing this madness. Barone is a self-described conservative. So are many on the National Review staff who are positively GIDDY about gay couplings. For that matter, the whole issue is being promoted in the courts by Ted Olson, who was at one time a big hero here on Free Republic. Bottom line: the ELITES in this country—many of them GOP stalwarts—are out to kill marriage, and they are doing a very good job.
He’s going to come out in favor of gay marriage. He will throw the blacks under the bus. WTF are they going to do, vote for an “evil white Republican?”
Sheep have more self awareness.
1. Take over American schools, kindergarten to graduate school. Indoctrinate and destroy Conservatism.
2. Use unions to hold American business hostage. Destroy incentive and capital.
3. Force homosexuality upon normal Americans. Indoctrinate.
4. Weaken America's ability to defend itself. Protest and Indoctrinate.
5. Use anarchy to overcome opposition.
6. Crush and destroy remaining Conservative opposition through control of all media outlets. Lie, cover-up and indoctrinate.
Working like a charm!
With the destruction of the nuclear family being pushed by these so-called conservatives, who needs liberals? The final goal of absolute dependence on the state will kill true conservatism as well. But God will have the final say.
Exactly. And the gays fight hard against any referendum where “the people” have a say about this. They always lose and they know it.
Exactly. These folks who say they’re “socially liberally but fiscally conservative” don’t seem to acknowledge the basic fact that the latter is impossible without the former.
What bothers me much more than the term “marriage” for homosexuals is when they use the words “husband” or “wife.” “Husband” and “wife” are intrinsically complementary, describing a relationship between people differing in an essential and primary quality. It’s like the relationship between parent and child, not like the relationship between siblings.
