Now can someone please explain to me why it's important to elect Republicans? LMAO.
I'm getting more convinced by the day that the Beltway is filled with depraved homosexuals -- Democrats and Republicans alike.
Ted Olson is so married to the proper narrative that he no longer has time for thinking. That makes it easy for him to contradict himself and refuse to acknowledge any data outside the narrative.
That’s exactly what I expect from a lawyer — especially one who has spent his career in government and practicing law inside the Beltway.
Bullsh*t.
He's wrong. Culture isn't only about "immediate reaction". It's about a culture that develops around the norms, customs, laws, etc.
Olsen is endorsing a real war on women and children, the protected class in the institution of marriage. We already see them impoverished through out-of-wedlock births.
MARRIAGE becomes irrelevant in a polygamous, homosexual (even bestial?) culture.
Culture itself is dependent on its morality, and a culture without God is a culture where no one is accountable. How do you hold a welfare check baby-daddy accountable? You're already paying for him.
So, homosexual marriage deconstructs our current 'nuclear family' culture and replaces it with a 'homosexual' culture or a 'random relationship' culture.
A true war on women and children.
“...We should give the social acceptance...”
This is where Mona Charen has joined the liberal chorus. We should not give social acceptance. It is not right to allow homosexuals to adopt children while hetero couples wait. We do not have to cast stones but we should never pretend that homosexuality is acceptable no matter how prevalent it becomes.
RIP, Barbara Olson.
Precisely
The problem with this article and so many others on same-sex marriage is simply that appeals to logic, reason, and the rule of law have zero effect on the “marriage equality” proponents. The courts have simply decided to push this through regardless of what We the People want. It’s not like it hasn’t happened before and won’t happen again. Remember abortion?
I totally agree with the concept that states and communities should have the right to set their own standards, but this battle was fought and lost long ago. Our government and leaders now do whatever they want whenever they want. I don’t even think these rulings on being able to marry who you love will immediately result in polygamy. Why? Because judges who can make up a right to “marriage equality” out of nothing can easily cobble something together that says it doesn’t apply to polygamy.
That’s the bottom line here. We conservatives aren’t even fighting the same battle. It’s apples and oranges, and the left only believes in winning. They are willing to destroy the civil society, lie, cheat, or whatever so long as they get their way. Until conservatives realize the left is playing us for fools, we have no chance. It’s like a fist fight where we’re using Marquess of Queensberry rules and they’re hitting us with whatever they want.
How does same-sex pseudo-marriage affect real marriage?
Try speaking out against it. If you’re married and own a business, your very livelihood is at stake because the REAL anti-family bigots will see to it that you can’t do business ever again (remember the photographer, the bakers, florists, etc.). Have a job? The homo-fascists demand you “celebrate diversity” or be sent to “sensitivity” (re: indoctrination) classes or lose your job. Many divorces in this country are due to finances. Imagine not being able to hold a job or keep it because you believe homosexuality is either a sin or just plain disgusting.
Your ability to take care of your family is at stake if you don’t swear allegiance to all things homo. That’s how same-sex pseudo-marriage affects real marriage.
“MARRIAGE becomes irrelevant ...”
Unfortunately, marriage has been becoming more and more irrelevant over time for a long period. People get married as an option these days, many with the idea “I’ll give this a try”. The ‘until death do us part’ thing isn’t really relevant anymore.
He’s a “compassionate conservative....”
Then turn on the TV and watch “Modern Family” where homosexual marriage and same sex child rearing are celebrated as the hip and cool thing to be doing. Along with a dysfunctional melange of illegal alien self righteousness (Sofia Vergara) and her arrogant pissant smart aleck Hispanic genius anchor baby. Vergara—a pretty woman until she opens that sewer trap of a mouth. And BTW this program has dozens of corporate sponsors. You wanna win which battle?
The poverty moms prove that marriage IS relevant.
What’s relevant is that marriage is has been bastardized.
Which is safer for women and children?
a. a nuclear family culture
b. a homosexual marriage carriage
c. a random variety of relationships culture
It clearly is “a” if one looks at the poverty moms and the security evident in the past culture for moms and kids.
Yep. She’s right. I was embarrassed for Ted Olson; he really came across as a shallow, feel-good no-nothing.
Such a shame about Ted Olson, married a liberal democrat and lost his mind.
Barbara Olson is spinning in her grave.
Friends don’t let friends marry libs.
I always thought that she was a better man than her husband.
