Perry signs anti-gay pledge

Is that another case like New Haven where the city was forced to hire unqualified people just because they are black? Did they also have to dumb down the testing until a brain damaged earthworm could pass the test?

 

So much hatred from both sides of the issue. Everyone wants to be recognized, heard, tolerated, but no one is listening and tolerating.
Whatever the law, however much you wish to insult me for my faith in God Almighty, you will never be able to change my heart, and you will never be able to be seen as married before your Creator.
Does that mean I love and respect you any less? No. We can live happily side by side, be friends if you wish. Just accept me for who I am, and live your life however you think you must. You may be able to change the law to be recognized, and I will have to accept it as a citizen. Yet, as a Christian, I must be able to speak my mind.
Again, if you want to be accepted, do not insult me for what I wish to be accepted for. Show me some respect if you wish to be respected, and don't insult my Lord and Savior.
Tolerance, love, friendship, it goes both ways.
So please, allow me not to love you to death, but let me love you into life eternal.

 

I understand..

Perry should be talking about jobs, the economy, our debt and foreign policy, not gay civil rights.

 

Considering what a horrific mess the economy, and the country is in, too, I agree with you.

This is NOT the time to be going into all the icky-sticky "social" crap. Perry should hold to the line that the overpowering majority of these things are left up to the individual states by the Constitution and LEAVE it at that....

Here's something Perry needs to understand: the Blacks, the "in-your-face", militant homosexuals, the hyperliberals, the Welfare State parasites -- they're ALL going to vote for Obama! There's no sense in Perry or any other Republican trying to "court" them because they would rather die than vote for any Republican -- as long as President Marvelous is the Socialist-Democrat nominee... period....

 

Moderates, Independents, East coasters, mainstream church Christians won't vote for Perry either.

The Republicans should quit fooling around with all the raving nutters and get behind Huntsman.

 

He is campaigning, and having studied tea parties closely, and certainly paid attention to Con talking heads and their crowd, he is trying to cash in.
Sadly, people may just flock around him like bees on honey, and all the "small Government and Constitutional rights" will soon be forgotten.

 

Frankly Mello Guy...the Constitution is written for the lay person like you and me. Its not legal-speak and easily understood EXCEPT for some more complicated issues. If you appreciate what it is and if you aren't interested in wording things to twist meanings your way....on most things we can figure it out. The founders had the people in mind when they wrote that thing.

So it wasn't written where you had to depend on someone else. If you read it, and appreciate it---then you will know a wrong decision when you hear one. And I don't depend on the courts to decide what is constitutional unless its highly complicated.

I simply cheer when they get it right and start writing to congressmen about using congress power to rid us of the activists judges.

 

Huntsman seems to be a reasonable guy. But he accepts evolution and global warming as real, so that's a big problem for him in the Republican primary.

 

Then ALL sexual choices must be protected and THAT is what you and your far left buddies never seem to grasp.

Its not just homosexuality but ALL sexual practices. You cannot claim this sexual practice is a civil right especially when you admit you cannot prove it is more than a choice which means they are ALL a civil right. The dishonesty comes in you and your buddies denying that reality when you make this argument.

And you cannot hide behind laws that ban other sexual practices since you want to remove laws that ban marriage of one sexual practice. THIS more than anything is the complete FALLACY and HYPOCRISY of the left on this issue.

 

in order for it to pass, it would have to pass by the states.

see, lets look at it like this.

Perry believes marriage is between a man and woman. He would bring it to the states to decide if they want an amendment made.

now you look at the liberals who wanted the federal government being involved in healthcare. instead of going on with it the constitutionally appointed way, they just passed an illegal law and rammed it down the throats of every American.

 

So do you believe the original intent of the 14th was that it would end segregation

 

I will. But why should other people have to be unhappy?

I agreed with Prop 8 being overturned. But despite that, gay marriage still isn't legal in California.

By definition, and by law, it was not.

 

I don't know wtf you're talking about, I'm fine with consenting adults marrying whoever they want and as many as they want.

Do you believe it's would be constitutional to ban things like sodomy? Or homosexuality completely?

 

Oh look...it's 1970 again.

I gotta take $30,000 and get me a '70 440-6 Dodge Challenger and a '69 Ram Air IV Pontiac Firebird Trans Am and a '70 Buick GSX and a 454 Chevrolet Corvette...

 

Polygamy wouldn't cause harm to other consenting women. They're adults right? They can decide for themselves what makes them happy. Sister wives all seem very contented and friendly with each other and their common husband.

Children..well...the gay advocates are trying to lower the bar on what we consider children. They want it lowered to 16 or 15..or 12... I can't keep up. Just give it time on the slippery slope..

Siblings can have normal babies. Happened all the time in royal families. Sure they can pass on hemophilia and things like that but what makes that different than two people with genes for congenital blindness or flat feet or dwarfism breeding?

What harm can come from any of these groups marrying, including gays, is that it sets a wrong social more for subsequent generations to follow. What harm could come from that? Inducting more and more people into a behavioral deviance that misuses the lower GI tract causing blood to semen contact and spreads the most deadly epidemic the US has known: AIDS.

And besides, nobody here is responding to my comments on how the pact mentioned in the OP is really an election stratgey. Odd that as soon as I started debating just the gay agenda stuff people started quoting me and bringing me into the discussion..

It's almost as if some of the posters here dont' want to discuss how the pact is a strategy to rope in middle voters to the GOP by using the strong visceral private objections people have to the Agenda as a shoehorn...

 

So allow gay marriage but ban anal sex....I'm sure gays will suck it up and cope

 

South Park did an episode about misusing the GI tract and making it a new trend. Instead of eating with their mouths, they shoved food up their rectums and crapped out their mouths..lol... good old South Park.

The point being that at some point, the misuse of the human body for trends in behavior has to be called out as absurd. South Park's genius is taking PC trends and running them out to their absurd potential to illustrate how bizarre they really are.

They are absurd to demostrate the absurd. The anus and rectum are not designed for healthy sexual intercourse. I submit the following:

 

back then you could afford the gas and not contract AIDS or be flash mobbed.

 

I am not married to my partner and could not be happier if married.

Gays act like spoiled children simply b/c they want something they can't have.

PS being married is no guarantee for happiness or even financial stability. The other so-called benefits of marriage are not all that beneficial and may not even be relevant to that particular partnership. Couples divorce all the time, but you know that already. The only thing that gay marriage guarantees is gay divorce.

 

suck it up....

LOL hahaha

 

Too bad that he won't stand up for basic literacy, eh?
Then maybe right-wingers might be inspired to follow his example.

 

Rick Perry's got my vote.

 

What a joke.
Tell us again how the social mores of gays are damaging a country that has a 50% divorce rate, a population dedicated to mindless, selfish consumption above everything else, and a political group that promotes intolerance and greed and aspires to social Darwinism rather than developing a sense of community and shared burdens and benefits.
The right-wing is pushing the country toward an idiocracy and you are worried that some gays getting married will corrupt the children?
Talk about clueless bigotry and neurotic homophobia.

 

Can anyone name one non-religious reason that homosexuality is wrong or that gays shouldn't marry?
