I support gay marriage, but I won't be voting for him.

BTW, shouldn't this be in the politics forum?

I'm trying to. It sends me to the verify password page. I put in my password. It then just sends me to the home page login sort of thing and nothing happens when I log back in as far as moving the thread.

In other words, you broke something.

The Ad for this page is "singles in Cincinnati". Well done ETB.

Oh yeah, Obama sucks which is always good for gay marriage.

Pretty silly to me that they can't already. Really isn't one arguement for being against gay marriage other than being an idiot.

It's 2012. If you really still oppose gay marriage, there's almost certainly some serious cognitive dissonance going on.

He's the first president to ever publicly announce it. It's kind of a big deal.

I don't want to turn this into another thread about the evils of religion, but you can bet your bottom dollar if religion was out of the picture, the ignorance and intolerance of gay marriage would be eliminated.

Hopefully this means no more gay parades or gay rights events.

Sadly, I'm not an expert on things. And haven't even stayed at a Holiday Inn in the recent past. And am kinda brain-dead today. Friends had some good shit yesterday. Ace-level, man!

In light of this news....Ernest, will you marry me?

On a serious note, I fully support letting teh gayz get married. So this is one move by the Obamanator that I support fully.

This is the biggest gift in the world to Mitt Romney.

He has had a hard time coalescing the religous groups and evangelicals, BHO did it for him.

I have seen multiple "Obama declares war on marriage" headlines already, and nothing fires up the base more than that for Conservatives.

He fires up the Republican base and alienates Democrat blue dog social conservatives.

This is the kind of thing that could have waited until after the election, because there is little if any political upside other than firing up a liberal base that was already going to vote for him.

Ehh, who cares? To moderates and swing voters it is a non-issue really.
I have friends of both parties that honestly do not care for the issue.

You are dumb ernest.

It's also about time we stopped this whole hating gays because it's in the bible bullshit. They are who they are. Get over it people.

Will check thev society page for the Sleeper/LJ wedding date. Do these events have maidens of honor? Bridesmaids? Or do they roll out 2 best men to carry the flowers?

If it wasn't for religion there wouldn't be marriage

5 out of 6 of our most recent Presidents and Vice Presidents support gay marriage. George W. is against it, but Laura, the brains of the family, supports it.
