Okay, let's make it a federal issue now and reverse what Bush said in 2000.

Once again - - Marriage has been a national issue because A - When a couple are married in one state the other states are supposed to recognize their marriage, and B - The federal government gives benefits to married people.


Then why did Bush say marriage was a state's issue back in 2000?

WHY? WHY? WHY can you not keep your noses out of someone else's business?

I'm not trying to stick my nose in to their business. They can have any kind of relationship they want. The demand for gay marriage isn't a request for freedom of action, they already have that.


Not the freedom to marry...that's what's at issue. Why should the GOP care whether gays marry or not?

Some GOP guy locally is complaining about viewing porno on the net. I thought that was perfectly legal.......now he says it isn't and wants to tighten up the law so porno can not be viewed by people locally.

The opinion that we should heavily restrict or outlaw pornography is neither exclusive to Republicans, nor shared by me.


Not to worry.....at some point in the future, it will be a GOP plank. Its typical of what gets the blood of the right boiling.

I am sick to death of the GOP telling me what I can and can not do in the privacy of my own home.

The "gay marriage" issue has nothing to do with the privacy of any one's home or what they do there. Laws against consensual sodomy that I didn't support and that have since been struck down did.


They still exist in some states as well as ridiculous sex laws like the one in Georgia where an 17 year old can be put away for ten years for having consensual sex with a 15 year old. These laws typically exist in Republican stronghold states. Why are Republicans so interested in other people's sex lives?
