1. Abortion

2. Hillary or Bill

3. Homosexuals

4. Religion

I hope you are wrong. I know I care, as do those on my ping list.

I hope you don't plan to work for anyone's campaign. Three of those four are the hottest political issues there are, and Bill and Hillary are somewhere up there.

Zavien, many Americans care more about what's on tv and who they will shag next than anything. We with the brains must remain dilligent in order to keep some kind of reality to life.
As I tell my 27 year old niece who could not take a job because it conflicted with Allie McBeal, "It's tv, it's not real. This is real."
Many Americans forget this and when Jack and Joe are called "married" on tv, that means they are really married.

Then why did you even bother with this thread?

The Illinois State House passed ERA Amendment, and it is will be voted upon in the Illinois State Senate after summer recess.

If you are not familiar with ERA, this is NOT about equal rights for women or minorities. The ERA Amendment states: Section 1: Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex. Section 2: Congress shall have the power to enforce by appropriate legislation the provisions of the aritcle. Section 3: This Amendment shall take affect two years after the date of ratification.

Proponents of the ERA believe that they can begin again where they left off with the ratification process. 35 states have already ratified the ERA...Illinois would make 36. 37 states are needed to pass a constitutional amendment.

The word must get out about this before the Illinois Senate passes ERA. This Amendment would jeopardize the true equal protection of the existing 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
