What exactly does “Hometown Growth” have to do with gay marriage? And the article doesn’t make clear what Hometown Growth is, just that it’s having a tough time making it to the ballot.

For some reason people in FL love to vote yes on Constitiutional amendments. The left in FL, realizing this, and frustrated by a Republican hold on the houses, has learned to phrase their desires in attractive sounding(to uneducated people) amendments and thusly gotten their way because amendments cannot be changed, like a law.

For instance, they got through one a few years ago that the “priority of FL is to provide public education for the children”. That has been used to stymie every effort to destroy the stranglehold public schools have on the kids. It was used to shoot down an effort on vouchers.

You can bet the libs are trying to get this “local approval”(sounds nice, doesn’t it) by making officials put on a ballot if they are going to be allowed to open certain stores and such. Strangle everything with laws.
