>>> I do too, but I just choose to not mix it up with my sister because she outweighs me by 200 lbs. ;)<<<

Jeepers; and I thought having a very left wing step-sister was tough to deal with. Your gay and 200# overweight sister make my problem sis seem trivial. I assume she is a leftie also.

Bless you, dealing with all that.

Theo Braden, a Marquette junior, said he is heading to the polls because he thinks it would be immoral to deny gay couples the right to marry.

Then why are you going to a Catholic university?

...young people are more gullible to this issue, not because they are stupid, but because they have been indoctrinated for some year now by their public schools. They've been groomed.

Which is the gaystapo's stated goal: recruit for their cause from the young in society, whom they cannot beget themselves.

I believe, though, that once kids get away from the leftist school environment, they think better of what they've been told. Most reestablish themselves in the rational belief in natural affinities. I was once of a nonconformist mindset myself, more out of rebellion against the "system", but that all now looks silly to me in hindsight.

Hey, Diana. How are the winds blowing concerning the amendment in WI lately? Do you have any different feelings than a few months ago (closer, razor thin margin, doubtful?) Homogroups calling Wisconsin a possible victory, but I'm sure that's spin.

There is a bill in the Massachusetts legislature that would force the homosexual agenda on all students.

For more information, google H1641 S102

"Homogroups calling Wisconsin a possible victory, but I'm sure that's spin."

The more they yap, the more I'm convinced that they're in their death throes. The pro-amendment crowd has been VERY civil about the whole thing, and continually states time and again that they want to protect the sanctity of marriage, not deny gays any rights.

However, there was a BIG dust-up today. The "homophobic" name calling started today by the head guy that is pro-gay and it will continue until Tuesday. (He's 'Pulling a Kerry,' claiming that his comments were just misunderstood. Yeah, right...)

Since anyone that wants to vote to protect traditional marriage has been painted into a corner and called every un-PC name in the book, I'm sure the phone polls are totally skewed. We Wisconsinites keep our card hands close to our vests and if someone called me on the phone to ask me how I'd vote, I'd tell them what they wanted to hear and then vote my faith and conscience.

I really hate like h#ll to mess with our State Constitution. I'm a tad Libertarian (without all the pot smoking and drunk driving arrests, LOL!) If the demanding, shrill, girly-man freaks hadn't of backed ANY of our States into a corner, this wouldn't be happening. I cannot belive New Jersey caved! But I don't blame the citizens; I blame Judges With An Agenda.

I believe that if you want to get "married" do it in your Church in the eyes and love of God. If you want to form a "civil union" of some sort, go see a lawyer. I see a clear difference where others sometimes don't. I'm not too crazy that the state demands I pay them a stipend to "recognize" my marriage in the form of a license, to tell you the truth.

And then that tax "benefit" of being married? Well, I can't tell you how much I've gained from THAT through the years, being married to a man who has an innate FEAR of money; if he has some, he needs to rid himself of it pronto, LOL!

Lots to weight and think about between now and Tuesday. I may surprise myself on this one, actually. *SHRUG*

The Vote no people are very pushy here. They are also controlled by the College Democrats.
