well I think that Obama has secured the 2% of the gay vote!
ROFL
that combined with the 13% from racist blacks gives him a nice 15% approval :P
I know the liberal view is that marriage discriminates, yadda, yadda, yadda. And that to them, it’s a minor technical change to say marriage should be just any two people, etc.
But, doesn’t all of this really call into question whether government or society is allowed to define marriage at all?
Even defining marriage as any two people discriminates against polygamy and group marriage.
I think that since they are forcing homosexual marriage through the courts, it does call into question whether any definition of marriage will be allowed to stand.
And who will key targets of future lawsuits be? Churches, because there is no mainstream religious organization which performs homosexual marriages. Will they be sued? I guess we’ll find out.
Obama is doing this for one reason only: as a diversion.
He knows he can easily divert the attention of social conservatives away from his directly destructive actions that are currently ongoing, such as in Wisconsin, and in the courts involved with oil drilling.
Don’t waste your time right now on DOMA. It is merely a feint.
Bush pulled 20% of the "gay vote" in 2000. Last November one-third voted for Republicans.
Obama's taking a page out of the CA rulebook: Don't like a law? Don't defend it in the courts. It's a short circuit of the process of checks-and-balances that thrives best on vigorous debate.
Like Arnold & Brown did to stiff CA voters, Obama is substituting his judgment for that of his predecessor, former constitutional professor Bill Clinton, and an overwhelming, bipartisan, vote of Congress.
