I'll be glad when homosexuals get over their hetero-envy.

[concerned about politics]

I sure hope he doesn't go away mad.

Opps. I thought it was a "she."
I guess one homosexual is just as perverse as another. You have to turn them upside down to figure out their real gender these days.

[Drango]

I've fantasized about leaving this country since I was 12 years old

My fantasy, other than watching you leave, is watching you and your wife get it on...

[madison10]

That's sick. Both of them should go to Canada & may the door not hit their behinds on the way out.

[StACase]

I quit reading during the first sentence, where it stated "the president announced that my gay family should be banned by the U.S. Constitution".

Same place I stopped :-)

[millefleur]

that ain't no marriage
and you ain't no husband...

and it wasn't God who "joined" you.

ROTF. You're definitely a normal heterosexual male. LOL.

[tuckrdout]

Where's the Barf alert?!

[OldFriend]

If only these threats to leave the country would be carried out!

[Blue Scourge]

I stopped right here...

I've fantasized about leaving this country since I was 12 years old

didn't feel the need to read anyfurther...just thought to say, Than get the Hell out..we don't want you.

[clintonh8r]

How do they decide who's the husband and who's the wife? Count chromosomes? Is one more comfortable wearing the tool belt?

[DakotaGator]

Homosexuality is a voluntary perversion. It is a chosen behavior, not a trait.

For these people to embrace this perversion and then demand societal benefits by aping normal conventions, e.g. marriage, is astounding!

By all means, the article's author and its "wife" should leave the country. And don't let the door hit its butt on the way out!

[NeonKnight]

Darnit!!! If Bush just hadn't said that, this guy was going to vote for him!

[Izzy Dunne]

How do they decide who's the husband and who's the wife?

I don't know about you, but -I- don't really want to know the answer to that...

[doug from upland]

She wants our son to grow up an American, even if it means he'll lack the protections of the kid next door.

HERE IS WHAT IS IN STORE FOR A SON WHO HAS TWO MOMMIES.

Very "mature" writer.../sarcasm.

Very Curious George
See Prez Pick Nose, Pound Chest, Play Alpha at BushorChimp.com

January 24 - 30, 2001

With apologies to our primate cousins, three underclassmen at Tufts took live last fall a singular bit of Internet genius: the realization that George W. Bush, plastic, pouty face and all, looks awfully like a chimpanzee. The students paired photos of Shrub, then swinging for the presidency, with pics culled from nature sites, and voilà—the visual pun e-mailed 'round the world. "It was just kind of a joke," says Alex Reeves, who launched BushorChimp.com with Bill Feldspar and Rich Sullivan. "All of a sudden it blossomed into craziness."

Three Web addresses later, the site is drawing some 30,000 visitors a day, vending T-shirts, and raising money for wildlife preservation. The founders added links, like the one to www.savethechimps.org, after people complained that the comparison to Bush insulted the apes. Most were kidding, but not all. "They said we were furthering the exploitation of chimps in the media," Reeves says.

The trio update their site daily, often with Bush-chimp combos inspired by viewers. They've considered turning the cyberhit into a coffee-table book, but have had trouble scrounging up the photo rights—or even the names of the photogs. Pleas for the shutterbugs to come forward yielded one objection about unauthorized use from a Ranger Rick editor. "I'm not even that Internet savvy," says Reeves. "I just think it's, like, fun."

Whose country is this, anymore? Someone tell me. I get the feeling it's no longer mine.

She talks as though America has suddenly turned against homosexuality. Like it was accepted in Grandma Walton's day.

And, once again, someone demands that society alter to accomodate their particular outlook, that they are diminished if the mountains and earth are not re-arranged to accomodate them, that, should they not be allowed to dictate the arrangement and configuration of the fabric of law, society, and human existance, that it is injustice. Overblown self-centeredness.

This stems from the misconception that marriage is between two people. It is not. It is between two people and everyone else, who must accomodate, recognize, endorse, facilitate, and institutionalize for them.

[cwb]

Exactly. These liberals are hillarious. For decades they've attacked and minimized the role of the "family"...and now because they can't get married, the family becomes an issue for them.
