Barney Blasts Gay Marriage Foes
Boston Herald & AP ^ | December 30, 2005

WASHINGTON — Rep. Barney Frank sees an “angry, divisive” fight ahead for Massachusetts if a proposed constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage reaches the 2008 state ballot.

The congressman accused backers of the initiative petition of trying to provoke a new fight despite a lack of controversy over same-sex marriage.

“Basically, they’re the disturbers of the civic peace,” the Democrat said in a wide-ranging interview Thursday. “We now have social peace in Massachusetts. They’re the ones who want to stir it up . . . This is a non-issue in Massachusetts."...

I thought about that as well (what was left behind...so to speak).

P.S. It wasn't a pleasant thought.

Putting your man parts in the out box of another man is a sure way to lower the population of a state.

Barney wants to spread butt-ulism, ooops.. I mean botulism...


You hear of course, that Elton John's new blushing bride is at risk of contracting botulism... it's true.
You see, botulism can be caused by - ahem - old meat in a can.

Sorry, I couldn't resist posting a homophobic joke on this thread... it's more than I can bear to pass up...
:-P

ROFL!!! That's got to be photo-shopped!

I heard someone once asked a substitute teacher in science class:

Say Mars were the size of a cherry, would that make Uranus the size of a grapefruit?

"Putting your man parts in the out box of another man is a sure way to lower the population of a state."

Such shame will always exist naturally in many forms. Normal people (women especially) have proper ways of dealing with their mistakes and bad choices.

Promotion of this behavior as non-shameful, or a good "lifestyle" for any man, woman, or curious child - as a matter of state policy no less - is what we are fighting.

No controversy? I guess he hasn't been in the parts of the state who do not fawn over him.

My name has ended up on the 'Knowthyneighbor.org' website. The homosexual activists 'threatened' to publicize the names of all those who signed the petitions to bring the Amendment to a vote of the PEOPLE! If I hadn't already planned to sign it, just them saying that would have sent me running to the nearest person with a clipboard. My first comment when I heard they were going to tell on people who signed it was, "Bring it on"!! At least two other people on our street (a cul de sac) signed it. The groups tagline is to "Protect marriage for ALL families in Massachusetts". Ain't gonna work. The marriage amendment folks only needed about 66K signatures; they got over twice that amount.

I'm sure the homosexual activists and their bought and paid for legislators are working hard to keep it from coming up for a vote because TOO MANY people here in MA have worked hard to just get the chance to vote on it..

Another freak show is the Bwarney Fwank, Windbag Teddy K. and pompous Lurch F'n Kerry trio that the Peoples Republic of Taxachussetts sends to D.C. year after year. I guess their cream (err scum) truly rises to the top.

I dismiss them as freaks for practical purposes: they are long gone, in my view.

However that 'freak' is, was, or should have been somebody's proud son, husband, father, friend... ie. a man. Whatever choice of freewill he made to become the debauched living spectacle that he became, even subject to claims of innately gay biological compulsion, the path to his sad state was paved by the machinery of media, academia, and liberal socialites.

While such groups are largely socialists, tell me that David Geffen isn't a blood-sucking capitalist who made his billions by purposefully removing millions of young men and women from American life and putting them in drag, decadence, and their AIDS-related early graves.

David accomplished this using focus groups and marketing. Democrats are determined to do the same using judges, lawyers, and synthetic cultural guilt. That begins with mandates for "tolerance", and with the crybaby moans of a certain Massachusetts congressman.

I have no empathy for the swine. The man-boy must grow up - though we all know that he won't.

Barney Fwank can go bugger himself. I'm sure he's probably tried multiple times.
