I don't see how this amendment can possibly fail, unless Ted Kennedy and his Democrats have the guts to filibuster it. Not even they could be so self-destructively stupid.
To: Old Sarge
There are no Democratic co-sponsors. I would be surprised if it gets a two thirds vote (assuming it survives the inevitable filibuster) in the Senate.

Not even they could be so self-destructively stupid.The battle lines are being drawn and this is where the dems will meet their demise.
Watch the stupidity flow!

""The U.S. Constitution is no place to play election-year politics, particularly when our nation is facing other critical issues such as an uncertain economy, threats to our homeland, the safety of our troops in Iraq and skyrocketing health care costs," said HRC Executive Director Elizabeth Birch in a press release."
Of which these peter puffers care nothing.

Well, the amendment will take 2/3rds, so I don't know if a fillibuster fits in, unless the libs want to prevent a roll call vote on the matter, which they probably do.

Ann Coulter had a great quote, paraphrasing, "the dems are going the way of the whig party". Let them cannibalize themselves.
To: kattracks
OK, it will never happen.
Constitutional amendments are next to impossible to pass, and I suspect strong opposition to this will make cowards of most state legislatures.

I don't see how this amendment can possibly fail, unless Ted Kennedy and his Democrats have the guts to filibuster it. Votes required to invoke cloture - 60
Votes required to pass a Constitutional amendment - 67

Then why introduce it this year? It would be better to introduce it next year and vote on it just prior to the 2004 DemocRAT national convention.

Quote "This is a misuse of Constitutional power, and evidence of a Constitution-destroying mindset within those supporting the amendment.
The objectives within the U.S. Constitution are contained in the words ...
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
... and interfering with natural human sexuality is not one of them.
Homosexuals are being treated -- by Christians -- just as Hitler treated Jews.
Think about it.

I thought it about and here's what I came up with. You're either a liar or a lunatic.

You're attacking me, not my statement.
Give reasons for your position and you'll look more like a thinking being.
