Sunshine State News ^ | 5/8/13

... Charlie Crist’s march to the left is all but complete. The one-time Republican announced his support for marriage equality on his Facebook page, writing that he looks forward to the day it happens in Florida. In his Facebook post, Crist writes that it is “great news” that Delaware became the 11th state to allow marriage equality.

Does this mean that Crist intends to marry a gay person (male or female, or a so-called trans-sexual?

It takes courage to undermine a fundamental, long-established institution like marriage, turning a diamond ring into a trinket.

If you mean passing popular vote amendments, I think 32 states have passed them.

There were some states that only passed their amendments in the 50% ranges in the last decade or so. More passed them by at least 70% or much more. Some of the ones that passed in the low 50% ranges 5+ years ago are probably repealable by another popular vote now. But then there are states like PA and WVa, where they don’t have an amendment but at least WVa seems pretty far from accepting ‘gay marriage’ at least by politician or popular vote.

The states that don’t have amendments and don’t have ‘gay marriage’ as far as I can tell:

Minnesota—voted down a marriage amendment in 2012
Indiana—started process for amendment ban
PA—started process for amendment ban
WVa—tried to start ban ballot, but couldn’t start the process, both housed controlled by dems according to wiki
Wyoming
New Mexico

I added that up 11 gay marriage, 32 pro-marriage amendments, 6 with neither and I am missing one somehow.

The 11 “gay marriage” includes D.C., I think.

‘Gay marriage’ accepted: CT, DE, ME, MD, Mass., NH, NY, RI, VT, WA, IA + the capital.

I have 11 actual ‘gay marriage’ states plus the capital, still doesn’t add up, at least for me. I’m probably doing something stupid, maybe HI was left out of the amendment list because it is so different than any other one.

11 w/t gay marriage
32 w/t amendments
6 w/t neither yet

Charlie is light in the loafers himself. The wedding was all smoke and mirrors.

Why would you say that about Bonnie Prince Charlie?

The 11 that have approved gay marriage have done so through their (democrat controlled) legislatures. When it’s come to a vote of the people, it’s been defeated every time!...even in Kalifornia

What Crist ISN’T saying: “If only Florida had passed a gay marriage law years ago, I wouldn’t have had to marry a (shudder) female!”
