During Loretta Lynch's confirmation hearing Wednesday, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) tried to take the attorney general nominee down the slippery-slope argument often made against the marriage equality movement by inquiring what the legal difference is between marriage of same-sex couples and that of three or more people.
'What is the legal difference between a state -- a ban on same-sex marriage being unconstitutional but a ban on polygamy being constitutional?" he inquired at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. "Could you try to articulate how one could be banned under the Constitution and the other not?"
Lynch, who is the current U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, didn't take the bait. She cited her inexperience in dealing with cases of precedent on the matter, and promised to "look forward to continuing the discussions with you."

IIRC a Roman Caesar married his horse. Isn’t that where the degenerate clique wants to take America? Of course it is, so the degenerates will have no restraints upon them and they can magically think they are normal.
The States, the law and libertarians have to start acknowledging fundamental truth
That heterosexual and homosexuality are not the same thing.....
Heterosexuality is a biological necessity like water in oxygen...
Homosexuality is not a biological necessity, its personal entertainment preference but has no necessity, like alcohol and cigarettes
If gay is your pleasure I have no problem ...
Just don't tell me it equivalent and must treated as completely equivalent
else the law comes irrational.....
Saying 2 plus 2 equals 5 is a silly little game amongst friends
When the state and the law starts forcing you to say 2 plus 2 is equals 5 ...that's the start of tyranny
...I really could have care less about gay.. till the state started twisting arms and the law to say when you must profession it as being "truth" as equivalent to straight .. ..they are not the same...
Could not have said it better.
The problem is that liberals and libertarians will never understand it because they want what they want. The world evolves around them and on the line of anarchy.
If the founding fathers thought homosexuality and cross dressing they would have put it into the constitution, sadly the communist manifesto of 63 moves on with the help of liberatarians and liberals
You’re also faced with the prospect of anywhere from 1 to 10 women pulling out a divorce on you all in the same month. Most people I know wouldn’t bother with polygamy for that reason, they know pretty well that it’s usually the woman who initiates the divorce, and with no-fault divorce in effect, most people don’t bother with polygamy unless they can somehow cut off their wives from finding out about their civil right to divorce the husband for any reason she wants. Homosexuals don’t care about no-fault divorce because the most they will “marry” or “divorce” at a time is one.
As I said before the prospect of having multiple women in only one month all pulling out no-fault divorces on you is a good enough incentive to not bother asking for government recognition of polygamous marriages. If anything, government could help your wives get the hold on the divorce trigger really easily. You are either really foolish or have a mansion and an insane sum of money to actually bother with polygamy.
That was Caligula, plus he also pimped his own sister, and appointed his horse at the head of the senate for a day. Makes you glad we aren’t in Rome in some ways, although I personally wish we could take care of criminals with gladiator deathmatches though!

I found it on C-Spam. Thank you kindly......Leni/MinuteGal
Miss Lindsey must have real ambition.
