Gay Marriage/Civil Unions in 10 years

[Nutmeg]

My father was a drunk who beat me. My mother worked three jobs to make up for my lazy father and I hardly every saw her. Meanwhile, my best friend was raised by two gay men who held normal 9-5 jobs, always had time for their family, and loved my friend unconditionally.

Which household was it better for a child to be raised in?

Still the heterosexual biological mother and father home.  

You are a stupid person.  That's simply the only conclusion here.  Dumb as a bag of hammers.

Obama defended DOMA today, said it was constitutional and marriage is not a fundemantal right. And banning same-sex marriage benefits the federal goverment.

source, plz

That is surprising.

So what hand does Obama have in this?

Maine signature gatherers are lying. They say they have enough signatures right now.

I don't doubt that they're gonna get them. I just think that their announcement that they have the signatures, so they can use to fund raise better, is premature. Two weeks ago, they said they had gotten 11,000 - 13,000 signatures in the past three weeks. Then there were reports of them being confused and disorganized, not to mention it's been raining badly in Maine for the past month. Yesterday, they claimed that they had exactly the 55,000 signatures.

Now they're saying they have 70,000 signatures.

Really.

Opponents of equality are rarely disingenuous, so it is surprising that they would be misleading like this.
