Pole smokers get benefits. Cigarette smokers get fired.

And even with private corporations, I don’t want private corps I have bought stock in, giving away medical benefits to anyone who wants to pick up a roommate.

(Says one guy to another - “Here’s the deal: you pay me 85% of a health policy, and I’ll get both of us benefits.”)

We already pay for consequences of all forms of fornication (see: abortion)....soon it will be this one too. This administration is moving lightening speed. You’d think that Bambi knew he only has 2 terms to kill and steal.

THIS is the first order of business (in a dangerous world) for our new foreign policy workers? THIS is a priority of the Obama policy wonks?

We are so screwed!

or phony and McCain

watching that polygamy series on HBO last night with the wife.
Anyway she commented that isn’t it strange that child services come ion and can take their kids away form them if they have two mums and a father. A couple named their kids some loony Hitler names, result child services come in but if two homo’s who do perverted abnormal sex with each other are given kids from social services.

Now we are living in one corrupt perverted society.

phony has been pushing the homo agenda since he got in and yet nothing much on the campaign trial and nothing from the media.

So where is the media covering this???????????????????

Am I the only one who is fed up of phony already and sees this country more divided than ever and wouldn’t lose any sleep if the north east and states like IL just go their separate way?

Saw this morning that phony will now put a bunch of judges into the district courts meaning the SC area will now have 4 conservative judges be replaced by 4 liberal judges and so on .

we have to fight this and let the GOP know they should not be silenced anymore as the majority are against any kind of homo agenda

This is EXACTLY why Islamic fundamentalists hate us. Not for OUR way of life but because of the few zealots in this country who want to shove immorality and Godlessness down the throats of the world and the media who give them wall-to-wall coverage.

They are threatening national security with these very acts and can’t even see it.

exactly

straight normal couples should be suing for civil unions like homo’s get.

two roommates who are not homo’s say they want benefits so thety say they are homo’s.
This cannot be proven thus they get benefits and the company has to pay for it.

Marriage is a man and a woman that is it.

I am totally fed up of this homo agenda right now but the more they push it the more I will fight and let everyone know what is going on.
We have to let everyone we know hear about the homo agenda, they do not want us to tell others and the media is in black out mode but we need to get this message out NOW.
The people need to know just how radical these homo’s are

I don't either, but I think it is more difficult to monitor this. The trend today is for private corporations to pay for half of the employee's health benefits and the employee pays for all benefits for the spouse and children (I know a lot of older companies are paying everything for everyone, but EVERY company that can is moving away from this), in this case it makes it difficult as a stockholder to argue against homosexual benefits because the company is paying for them.

What about benefits for mistresses? Are they now second class citizens? Or is it only when you shack up with a same sex partner that it becomes different and suddenly a protected class?

correct.
benefits should only go to married couples which is a man and a woman regardless if I am in MA,CT and they say it’s same sex marriage.
To me I don’t care what your law says , I do not recognise it nor will my children and family.

Any two people can get benefits if they say they are homo’s which is pathetic

The government should never put its seal of approval, explicitly or implicitly, on immoral behavior. Homosexual behavior is quite dangerous. If you find out your kids are involved in it, get them to stop—that is, if you love them!

If someone else did it, it's good enough for us!

Especially if it one of the liberal's favorite European countries - they just love Europe and have a dream of "Moving America Forward with Change and Hope" of becoming part of Europe. My eyes were opened when John Effing Kerry ran in 2004.

“Our gradual decline isn't so gradual any more I think.”

B. Hussein O’s own version of shock n’ awe. He's steamrolling us. He'll throw bones to the homosexual community to repay and continue to secure their loyalty. He'll be wanting those anti-Prop 8 anarchists for thugs in his new civilian security force. They are tools to him.

“My understanding is other nations have moved to extend that partnership benefit.”

Yeah. Let’s follow the Iranian model.

What is the means by which we will have to verify that people who claim their roommate is a homosexual deserving of benefits? Will there be required rimming and felching? How does this work and what is to keep any guy with a roommate claiming the benefits?
