I don't understand what is happening. I guess I would be considered old, at 60 I guess I am old fashioned.

Why is it that if the majority of people are against queer marriage (I refuse to call it gay) how is it that we put up with it.

Where are our conservative elected leaders. Why is it that none of them are putting their jobs on the line in defense of OUR standards.

The silent majority if one exists needs to make some noise.

I am beginning to believe that there is no silent majority. The queers and the unemployed are running the country. I am a slave, 2/3rds of my taxes go into the pocket of someone else.

It is time for a lot more than a tea party, it is time for a revolt. If judges realize that they have to answer to the majority and the majority is not queer perhaps they will change their opinions/rulings. Because the press makes the most noise and because the majority is silent they think they are doing what we all want. They believe that those against queer marriage are a misguided few.

We've got to start making some noise. I'm not saying that it is time to get out the guns, but it would be nice if someone could lead us in the right direction to be heard.

If now is not the time, that time will soon be at hand.

Most people are not against legal protection for gays and some form of legal union. What people object to is that they want to strip the word marriage of it's Biblical meaning.

That is the entire point of the commies pushing this. They are basically trampling on the rights of Christians and other religions to determine what their scriptures mean.

The goal is to take away legitimacy from religion and place all authority in the hands of the state. They have to discredit faith in a higher power to do that and crush any organizations that might cause opposition.

All it takes is an amendment to the state constitution. But, with the both houses of the legislature and the governor being Democrats, that won't happen anytime soon.

Just like the rest of the USSA, Iowans are getting exactly what they voted for.
