LONDON — Gay marriage becomes legal in Britain as Queen Elizabeth II gives royal approval.

“The Queen Approves Gay Marriage” has to rate some sort of Irony Tag of the Day.
The Rulers of once Great Britain don't care what the Muslims think any more than they care what the Homosexualists think. They are only using the Muslims and Homosexualists as batter rams to knock down Western Civilization.
I thought that she was pleaged to protect and preserve the Church?
Wonder if that means that an heir to the throne can marry a person of the same sex. Hmmmm.
You know what, you hit it squarely on the head. Robert Bork's book, "Slouching Towards Gomorrah - Modern Liberalism and American Decline" cleary states why we have sunk into socialism. It's kinda old (1996), but is even more relevant today and it explains why the children of the Boomer generation went so far off the path with their 60's radicalism and beyond.
To summarize: The boomers were successful and wanted the best for their children, so they over-indulged them. With little financial worries; no taught work ethic; questionable moral developement; few demands on them as in chores/duty; and no direction they tried to find something new. They embraced socialism and actually communism. If you like, I will give you an example of a failed commune near Los Angeles during the late 60's. Saw it first hand.
Bork's book is very enlightening as to how we got so far away from our Constitutional roots and workable society values and that was back in 1996 after the libs "Borked" him out of a USSC nomination.
Which lead to Anthony Kennedy being on the bench to vote against REAL marriage.....
Monarchy fail.
Thanks for making me laugh!
I’ll bet Obama’s son is spinning in his grave.
BTW, if this is true and Liz has a gay grandson, there could one day be two queens on the throne.
This whole Anglican/Episcopal experiment seems to have failed miserably.
Of course he could.
An heir to the throne can be or do anything he wants - except be a Catholic, which is the only disqualification.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
At least she allowed a vote.
Full of?
There have been three on the British throne for which a case has been made: William II, Edward II, James I.
That's maybe 3 out of about 60.
The Queen has no power to withhold her assent from an Act approved by Parliament, unless she is advised that it is unconstitutional. In her 60 odd years as monarch she’s probably had to assent to a lot more Acts of which she privately disapproves than those of which she approves. We will never know, since the Queen does not have public opinions.
Remember how they used to hang the blood-stained sheet out the window to prove consummation and the bride's virginity? I would hate to see the stained sheet from the "consummation" of one of these "marriages."
