After three hours of noticeably civil debate and personal, sometimes emotional speeches, the Minnesota House passed a bill Thursday, May 9, that would make it legal for same-sex couples to marry.
The bill is scheduled for a vote Monday in the Senate, where leaders have said they have the votes to approve it. Gov. Mark Dayton has said he will sign it.
If approved, the law would make Minnesota the 12th state in the nation to allow gay and lesbian couples to marry. It would take effect Aug. 1.
The House vote was 75-59. All but two of the 73 Democrats voted in favor of the bill. They were joined by four Republicans.

4 frigging republicans, I hope the voters remember this and vote these bums out
Last year my cousin applied for a job she didn’t even really want at a Christian college. She refused to sign their contract that she would uphold the Christian standards of behavior. Naturally she threatened to sue and tried stirring up a crowd for protest.
Funny thing is that I have a friend from childhood who is gay. He really enrages my cousin when he calls her a heterophobic dyke.
It was a local boy who ran as VP back then, but still no excuse.
LOL
I think it happened....check 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Egad!! So it has!
Now I need to wash my brain with soap! LOL!
agree, these clowns have their fraud, they think because the media encourages this agenda then it must be popular and they must vote for it.
If homosexuals really want their sham then why are they not moving to those states which have it then?
This is about destruction of marriage and the family.
For anyone who thinks this is not a big deal and so what bola bla then I hope thye enjoy a communist agenda

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
RIGHT THERE, Now those who have no problem with this then better wake the hell up for once and stop being selfish and think it’s all about them when we have these scum bags doing their agenda
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
Get on to your reps, your media, ban places where they get support and let them know you won’t spend money.
For crying out loud will people wake the hell up and why is it that if we want normal marriage then why do people have to vote but then when they want their sham they just find their lawmakers and pay them off to get their laws passed
I suppose ignoring their agenda and just saying who cares must be easy for some.

1963, we won the cold war overseas but the communists went underground , getting into positions of power and influence like Karl Marx said.
Must be nice to ignore all this and either use the cop out of Govt out of it or so what lets talk taxes, take note Hannity and other in talk radio
The (r’s) reasons:
“Loon says she decided during the debate. Garofalo and FitzSimmons say an amendment to fortify religious protections was key. Kieffer was unavailable for comment.”

No wonder the North Stars left for Texas!
Takes their brains away too, huh!
But the Democrats support gay marriage for a reason: power. If homosexuality becomes the arrangement of choice among say, young women, then that eliminates the authority of the traditional family that stood between the federal government’s authority over our children.
we live in two countries.
People down here voted and we had our say, the people up there either had the courts or legislatures being paid off by the communists and socialists plus the homostapo.
communist wrote about this back in 63, they knew damn well if they could destroy the family ten they could destroy America and people would then depend on Govt not the family.
It’s no secret to anyone taking notice how and why and how long they have been doing this and yet our side still cannot grasp this and many will say ah well times changing
I hope Florida can hold on! It DID go for Obama twice,and we all remember it was WAY too close in 2000!And now Charlie Crist is coming out in support of this garbage!

The politicians are all obsessed with homosexuality and illegal aliens right now.
I still say this today and so do many still here.
The is no way he won this state.
The fraud done in the Dem controlled counties gave him this state and yet Crist is out as he was friendly with bozo, crowds were smaller, signs and stickers for their side wee hardly any and even the ballot questions went conservative.
if marriage is what they want then why are they not flocking to states with their sham.
Just reading those rules for communists and they have done nearly all their rules and still our side would rather attack Sarah, Cruz.
Seems they have infiltrated not just their party but ours also
Or...could theirs be the first interspecies marriage? Maybe...
Yep, don’t want to come across as a social-issues nut....you know, one of those purists.
Concentrating on fiscal issues alone is never going to rescue the country. The Communists have accomplished just about everything they set out to do, and they did it because we wouldn’t speak up. Can’t be seen as intolerant. /s
Could be! Wookie and monkey?
