Poll: Support for Gay Marriage Grows
CBS News ^ | April 28, 209

Posted on 04/28/2009 6:37:43 PM PDT by Alter Kaker

Forty-two percent of Americans now say same sex couples should be allowed to legally marry, a new CBS News/New York Times poll finds. That's up nine points from last month, when 33 percent supported legalizing same sex marriage.

Support for same sex marriage is now at its highest point since CBS News starting asking about it in 2004.

Twenty-eight percent say same sex couples should have no legal recognition – down from 35 percent in March – while 25 percent support civil unions, but not marriage, for gay couples.

As has historically been the case on this issue, liberals are more likely to support same sex marriage. Sixty-nine percent support the idea, while conservatives generally favor either civil unions (28 percent) or no legal recognition (44 percent).

IN OTHER WORDS: Nearly 60% do not support sodomite marriage

Somehow, that's not newsworthy.

When they polled Sodom, everyone supported it except for some right wing lunatic named Lot, his wife, two daughters and two visitors— 6 people, two of whom weren’t even residents of that great city. How did that turn out?

>>remember Alinsky’s rules
 
I agree that the pursuit of Ayer's/Alinksy/Marx's agenda is progressing.  They know how to destroy and parasitize... but not how to build.
 
Alinsky's rules do not trump Nature's rules.
 
The ability of a society to maintain its infrastructure is proportional to the degree of Social and Biological Fitness among the population.
 
Destruction of the religious moral framework (George Washington's "foundation of the fabric") has a negative impact upon that fitness, and the ability to maintain infrastructure.
 
Just ask the Romans.

IOW this is bootstrapping the NYT fake (push) polling.

I wonder if this is in advance of the state of california declaring the constitutional amendment unconsititutional by process.

there is only money in marriages with children.

Homosexuals are in and out of relationships in less than 5 years which is barely rehabilitative alimony territory.

With no children, marriages is just property division.

The only laywers pushing for this nonsense are homosexuals, and lawyers who draft cohabitation/pre nup agreements.

ahh but you have found the propagandists polling tool.

When the enemy polls in greater numbers you divide the enemy inot parcels so you become the plurality.

This is why they are dividing the republican into moderates, social conservatives, evangelicals, etc etc. but they only have “democrats” not far left, marxist, or socialist democrats.

I know when a poll comes out from CBS/NY Times that the poll is a push poll and it is a lie. Every one of them is a LIE!
