Oh the battles we choose to fight.

We should be more concerned about the degradation of the American Family than who marries who. There are far left liberals and far right conservatives and about 70% of America is in-between the two. Yet the voice of moderation seems to be over shadowed by the voice of the Zealous. We as Americans draw a line in the sand and say we are Republican or we are Democrats and there is no common ground. You are either for us or against us, never anything in between. If you dont agree your a bigot, if you dont agree then your a sinner. Bullshit is what I say, I am no sheep and I will not be bullied to one side or the other. If I dont completely agree that gays should be married that doesnt make me an anti-gay bigot. If I dont completely agree that there should be a ban on gay marrage, that doesnt make me a sinner or have poor morals. It means I believe there is a common ground and a solution to our problem that we have in common.

I firmly believe that people like Rush Limbaugh and Keith Olbermann are the ones destroying American. One is far right and one is far left, they both try to bully the common person into believing their over zealous point of view behind the veil of scare tactics and bigotry. Doom and gloom or racist bastard, pick your poison with people like this.

I don't want to get married. I know lots of gays who don't want to get married either. On the other hand, I do know a few who do. But every gay person I know wants the same rights and responsibilities that every heterosexual person has under the law.

What's so unreasonable about that?

From our conversation before, hes fine with giving gays 100% legal rights just not the word "marriage."

Like i said before, i am not fighting for a word but for my rights regardless of what its called.

I can see this issue two ways . . .

1) Let's call heterosexual's arrangements "marriage" and gay arrangements "civil union."
2) "Seperate but Equal" is not equal; the same legal relationship that comes with the same rights and responsibilities should be given the same name.

Personally, if I was going to get married to my sweetie, I wouldn't care what it was called, as long as it was a legal as what everybody else had.
Then again, I know people who are into tradition and formal church services with robes & etc and fancy ceremonies, and for these people, the label attached to the arrangement is important. In their minds, if a bunch of self-righteous pharasaical fundamentalists lobby for a different name for the same thing, then for them it is not the same thing. I guess they want the right for not only the same thing, but the right to have the government call it the same thing.


As far as I'm concerned, I'm ready to march with a group of either (1) or (2) whenever I see 'em. I'm in Texas after all, where they still have the law on the books that makes gay sex illegal, and anything would be an improvement.
