Bush backs law to bar gay marriage

Legislation would define marriage as union between
a man and a woman

Why do you focus on the 10 percent of a relationship that is sexual
and ignore the 90 percent that is filled with loyalty and commitment?
Perhaps because in modern society, loyalty and commitment seems to
have nothing to do with marriage anymore?


MF,

For a while the was the concept of a registared "Domestic Partnership"
{A "Legal Arangement" between two persons.} That would provide
certain benefits and rights to the signatories. This had broader
public support then the concept of GAY Marriage that does not have
broad public support and generates hostility from many segments of
society.


And if youre interested in denying medical insurance benifits and
other relationship "perks" to homosexuals then why don't we go all the
way back and once again deny freedom, education and decent jobs to
black people?

MF,

This may be your personal 'logic' (mind set) to lump "Black People"
(African-Americans) and "Gays" (Homosexuals) together but the same
general percentages of African-Americans view "Gay Marriage" as
objectionable as American Society as a whole. Hispanic-Americans and
Asian-Americans as groups also have simular percentages with respect
to "Gay Marriage".

According to the logic of some who post here,
that is also costing us way too much.

I say that President Bill Clinton had the best solution for our time:
Don't ask. Don't tell.

MF,

! HERE IS A MAJOR LOGICALLY DISCONNECT !
- Don't Ask.
- - Don't Tell.
- - - Means Keeping Your Private Life - PRIVATE [.]
GAY MARRIAGE IS ABOUT BE VERY PUBLIC ABOUT YOUR PRIVATE LIFE !
