Have we considered the impact on the Military on this whole gay marriage thing. When will military family housing be open to LGBT couples? Will married LGBT couples be allowed to co-habitate in bachelor dorms or on deployment? Will straight males be forced to co-habitate with homosexual roommates? What if a straight male feels uncomfortable about it?
Good thoughts - They have opened up a can of worms and now they will suffer the consequences (too bad that they can not include impeachment).
I spent 9 years at sea on gray ships o’ the line. I have thought of those and more. That’s why I discouraged my 3 children from joining the military.
In fact, I discourage any young folks from joining and I encourage the good ones to get out ASAP.
Bad times coming for good people. No reason to contribute to our own enslavement.
Some of us have, for decades. Some of the arguments with libertarians have been intense, as they pushed and/or defended the gay agenda.
Here is where the 2012 nominee was, 20 years ago.
Mitt Romney 1994:
“One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share.”
I thought of something unrelated to marriage, but in line with this discussion....
Given that SCOTUS has now used the 14th amendment to declare that all people must be treated equally under the law, how then can they possibly defend affirmative action at any federal, state, or local level?
There can no longer be any standards applied to sexual behavior, only what the judges and bureaucrats decree. Family is the basic building block of society, followed by Church, and both institutions are under full assault. When these foundations are destroyed, our society will crumble quickly.
Very good point.
What’s better, the States must now recognize same-sex marriage, but they cannot force religions to do that. Their chants of separation are now going to be played back to them.
You are not allowed to feel uncomfortable. They come before you. In fact they will get preferences much the same way blacks get preferences for things. We owe it to them you see because of all those years of oppression. You must shut up you ignorant heterosexist.
Excuse me while I go throw-up.
Once again the demonic left has succeeded in distracting Conservatives onto the sexual implications. The true tragedy is what this unconstitutional act by the black robed bastards has done to end the Authority of the Constitution. But Conservatives are all atwitter over the moral ramifications and the left just smiles and spits again in God’s face in our collective names.
You still think we’d be exactly where we are today with Mitt Romney. I blame everyone who didn’t vote for Romney.
That isn’t the point, the purpose in reminding republicans of who Romney is, is one, to limit his influence on the GOP, as it’s “elder statesman, the role that he is trying to play to influence the platform and the 2016 election.
The other primary reason, is to remind them to look deeper into these people, never allow a pro-abortion/pro-gay/anti-gun, radical leftist, who left the GOP because of Reagan and became a democrat supporter, donor, fund raiser, and voter, and then returned to the GOP in October of 1993, with the agenda that you posted to in post 4, to spend 50 million dollars of his own money to take over the GOP and become it’s party head, and presidential nominee.
I think the lowest denominator is from wiki:
1 U.S. States that have constitutional carry (no permit concealed or open)
1.1 Alaska
1.2 Arizona
1.3 Arkansas
1.4 Kansas
1.5 Vermont
1.6 Wyoming (for residents)
i’m trying to read the opinion now to see if it looks like we can do ths.
How is a same sex marriage consummated?
What about religious preference? Southern Baptist? You’ll be kicked out of the military, or lose your government job, since that religion is homophobic.
-——Given that SCOTUS has now used the 14th amendment to declare that all people must be treated equally under the law,———
The 14 th amendment does not say that...
The word is “protected” not “treated equally”
Big difference, nowhere are we guarantee to be treated equally in the constitution...
the liberals again have used semantics to change meanings for their agenda...
Given that SCOTUS has now used the 14th amendment to declare that all people must be treated equally under the law, how then can they possibly defend affirmative action at any federal, state, or local level?George Orwell answered that one in his book "Animal Farm":
All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
You still think we’d be exactly where we are today with Mitt Romney.I do, actually.
Both Romney and McCain wanted nothing more than to "fit in" with the liberal elite. They both would have passed "PelosiCare" if it had reached their desks, so as not to appear "mean".
And I have no doubt that they would have rolled over on the Gaystapo.
I held my nose and voted for each of them, and all it accomplished was to convince the GOPe that I would support them regardless of what they did.
No more.
If Bush, in particular, gets the nomination, I will NOT vote for him. I will write in my preferred candidate.
At this point, the only way to effect change is to make it clear to the GOPe that we will NOT support them as long as they won't support us.
I will no longer vote for "Dem-lite".

Use the 14th amendment to apply & reinforce the 2nd; Allen West has a good point!
