Sounds good to me. #;^)

Traffic isn’t the issue, it’s how Tea Party folks (like us) are lambasted by the Libtards for sticking up for America as founded, the opposite view that Obama and his sycophants hold.

Never thought I would see a majority of the Voters go to the dark side, pardon the pun, but the truth is we’re stuck with the Mulatto Marxist (not being Bigoted, stating a fact) for another three years.

Back to the topic at hand...

When you say that SCOTUS overturned nothing, are you referring to ONLY the STATES who have already legislated gay marriage are affected?

This was debunked when posted before. The backup had NOTHING to do with the demonstration.
Sort can’t remember what the actual cause was.

Looks like a map of the US with the blue on the coasts and in the big cities.

Granted some of us cannot go into the street because we have Jobs and business'
that take most of our days. But we do have money and we can support those who have time.
Unfortunately we cannot support the GOP any longer because they've gone full out Democrat
so my money is spent funding the NRA, TEA party and the likes.

I see the poor they are bringing into our country and have been for over a decade.
These people speak very little English and almost all of them are being funded by the Gov
with food and housing, what more do they need to vote Democrat. It's a convoluted mess
that must stop.

"When you say that SCOTUS overturned nothing, are you referring to ONLY the STATES who have already legislated gay marriage are affected?"

No, I was referring only to California and the Prop. 8 referendum, with the point being that there are apparently conservatives living there that voted for and passed Prop. 8. SCOTUS made no finding or "overturning" of anything, but simply ruled the defendants had no legal standing (at least, I think they were the defendants - but whoever was "defending" Prop. 8, which was in effect before the ruling) to bring/defend the case that was brought by the gay/lesbian couple.

That's what seems so problematical to me...because the California State Government is completely controlled (all branches) by Democrats, the State refused to argue the case for Prop. 8, even though it was a duly passed California law. Personally, I don't know why the SCOTUS ruled apparently that the only entity with "standing" to argue the case was the State...talk about the consequences of elections!!! Just like that, the law's overturned by vacating all previous decisions except the original lowest court judge's ruling.

So, maybe the end result is the same for now, but that doesn't mean there's no other way around the issue. The Supremes only ruled on the standing of one of the parties, and NOT on the actual Constitutionality of the law.

What's so peculiar too, is that the DOMA ruling went the opposite way, in a way...the States that enacted right-to-gay-marriage laws were upheld, in opposition to the Federal law...so, why are those States' voters' decisions at the ballot box more "sacrosanct" than the California voters'??

In the DOMA ruling, it was a very narrow issue, and while the Obama Administration refused to argue for the Federal law (they like this trick apparently!), Boehner and the House did. Despite that SCOTUS decision, again they didn't rule on the merits so much as uphold the rights of states vs. the rights of the Feds. And that would be the rights of all the states, including those like Ohio that define marriage as between one man and one woman. So gay couples will have different rights and entitlements here than they would in California.

I think that's an important distinction to note...there was no sweeping decision on the Constitutionality of gay-marriage "rights" vs. "traditional marriage" rights in either case. So I would expect to see more action, especially from the gay-marriage activitists targeting traditional-marriage states. Fortunately, the 2010 mid-term elections put in a lot of State Republicans, and even some conservatives (lol!) that would defend traditional marriage laws...HOWEVER, we certainly need a repeat election success in 2014, so consider that a "call to action"!

BTW, I do like the "overpass" idea...it certainly couldn't hurt, and might just start something bigger - way to go, FReepers!! ;)

How do you find out about them if you refuse to join Facebook?

Here's the email address of one of the movement's chief organizers:
