It's a mystery to me why so many republicans are homophobes. Gay people just want the same health insurance, tax breaks etc. that married heterosexuals enjoy. There's nothing immoral or radical about that. This kind of reactionary legislation will hurt republicans in the long run.

Repulsion and/or standing up to pervertion is not a phobia.

'Gay people just want the same health insurance, tax breaks etc. that married heterosexuals enjoy.'

They can have all that if they marry a person from the opposite sex.

'There's nothing immoral or radical about that. '

Wrong. Everything about it is inmoral and radical.

'This kind of reactionary legislation will hurt republicans in the long run'

Actually the homos are the ones reacting, and legislation to protect marriage between a man and a woman will benefit all of us.

Get lost pink lobster.

Then you shouldn't have a problem letting the voters in Michigan decide for themselves whether it's "immoral or radical".

The voters in Missouri decided 70 to 30 that it was.

Government is giving tax breaks to married couples for a reason: the expectation of children.

Homosexuals can still get married, it's just not recognized by the government. All you have to do is find clergyman. The government is not telling you what relationship to enter, who to love, how to act, blah, blah. Homosexuals are not second-class people because they are treated like everybody else. Actually, homosexuals are a preferred class because you can commit a hate crime against gays but not a straight person. Also, dissagreement on gay marriage doesn't make me a homophobe. Just like being against illegal immigration doesn't make me a xenophobe.

Once again, it's all about money. And you want to use tax money of people who don't want to support gay marriages. Get it?

Get back to us when a man's semen fertilizes another man colon and a baby pops out of his ass.
