Yeah. That's what I'm talking about. Deadbeat Senators.
Both Kerry and Edwards are on record that they WOULD have voted for it had they bothered to vote. If Kerry and Edwards can't be bothered to vote, why should their supporters?
They kept away from the Sentate today because they knew that it would cost them SOME voters and since the media is on the Democrats side and likes to lie by omission, there will not be many references to the FACT that Kerry and Edwards (A) did not vote and (B) would have voted against it (not for it).
Yellow pit stains. At least he isn't wearing blue like Al Gore Junior used to in these photo ops.
So when unelected judges routinely amend the Constititution through elastic interpretation thereof to impose left wing social agendas, that is just fine, but to have an actual amendment through the democratic process provided in the document to prevent judges from doing just that -- heaven forbid! The Constitution never had a right to abortion until the Supreme Court amended it in Roe v. Wade.
John Kerry has a new slogan: Taking a strong stand on both sides of the issue!
If God does not bring judgement upon America pretty soon, off crap like this, He will need to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.
Dead serious, here.
Millions of state sanctioned shedding of innocents' blood(abortion) and now this? Was it Franklin or Jefferson, or maybe even Lincoln who said something like:
When I consider that there is a God in Heaven who does perfect justice, I tremble for my country.
What a disgusting piece of crap he is.
The is VERY LITTLE that is MORE about the common good than the integrity of marriage, which forms the bedrock of society!!!!!
Of course, if you want a society in which children and adults must deal with the state on their own, without any civil-society institutions (e.g., married heterosexual couples, famlies, neighborhood associations, churches, professional organizations, etc. etc.) in between, then you don't care. But that only works for fascists, communists, and other totalitarians!
You're either with us, or you're with the homofascists!!!!!
OUR SIDE: Jenna and Barbara Bush
How can he complain if he's never there?!?!?!
I swear I didn't read the article before posting this. But I know how sKerry's statement started... "I have a plan..." right? :)
Actually, this amendment was offered because a judge decided he would change the definition of marriage. He did it with the stroke of a pen.
He also says: "Had this amendment reached a final vote, I would have voted against it, because I believe that the American people deserve better than this from their leaders."
Which according to Babblefish means: "I didn't vote before I would have voted against it."
He followed with: "When I am president, I will work to bring the nation together and build a stronger America."
Which I guess is a vague way of saying "I have a plan/dream..."
Thanks for the ping!
