SM made a comment about reality that prompted this thread.....
reality
what is it? a country that doesn't accept homosexual marriage, but does accept britney spears and other 24 hour 'vegas' marriages that have nothing to do with religion or the historical meaning of marriage.
yet, in SM's reality, homosexuals, despite their sexual activitiy being legal, they do not deserve the same "right" as those who marry the opposite sex. doesn't matter whether they do so for god, elvis, or satan....so long as they are man and woman, this is SM's reality of marriage.
imho SM....the reality is....homosexual acts are not illegal, thus, denying homosexuals who want to marry and enjoy the same benefits you have (granted by the government) vis a vis marriage, is unconstitutional. if their acts are not illegal, then why should their marriage be illegal?
yes, this has been discussed ad nauseum...however, it is a factor in today's world in and today's politics. many will not vote for republicans based on this factor alone. why stick to such a silly stance when we face an uber spender like obama? fiscal conservatism....is the base of the republican party....less government, iow....not government in your bedroom...
why make this an issue?
