I think most everyone misses the point about “gay marriage.”

1. Official Washington is a massive collection of lawyers.

2. Lawyers are always looking for ways to increase their bottom line.

3. “Gay marriage” is a bonanza for the legal crowd, from divorce lawyers to estate lawyers and everyone in between.

4. Always follow the money.

Seems to the be calling card of the liberals this time to compare Roy Moore to George Wallace. Yet they refuse to mention one word about old George being a democrat and supporting him at the time.

My niece just posted on FB “what on earth is in the water in Alabama”. I posted “logic and intelligence”...expecting to be under attack by her brainwashed friends soon. She is at Univ of Texas, Austin studying “History”

Please pray for Judge Roy Moore!
He’s taking the stand we support.....and he’s not afraid, but he will be tested.

No, it channels Moses.

Or perhaps Jonah? "Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed."

Believe it or not there was a time when the CSM was a decent publication.

I went to those schools in Alabama. The feds forced desegregation in 1963, and things were still in chaos when I started in the mid 70’s.

The intentions and motives were moral, no doubt...but the implementation was terrible.

Me too—thanks to the way 0b0la has set back and hyper-polarised race relations in this country, Geo. Wallace sounds quite reasonable right about now.

His famous quote simply reflected the feelings of the BLACK militants—he was agreeing with them.

I got called a few names and she stormed off and it was well worth it letting them know not all of us are cowards and will not accept their agenda

If you lived in Canada you likely would have been arrested, soon it will be a crime here as well.

I was in Vancouver, Canada, in about 1999 when I heard a parent on a radio program discussing what a teacher had said to students....after describing homo behavior....”how do you know you don’t like it if you haven’t tried it”....SICKOs
