bs, I clicked on your link three times…amazingly it said the same thing every time I clicked. There is a 19 point spread against gay marriage. That is pretty strong. As far as a Constitutional ammendment against it, well I think it is futile and silly. If Republicans get on that horse, they deserve rebuke.

But here I am knee deep in the obvious again, while you are subtlely exposing the ethereal.

I find it inexplicable that after posting the pew data on public perception of homosexual marriage three times the comments never get posted.

Incredible.

Incredible alright. They were all captured by the spam filter. As were some others. Not quite sure exactly how it works but if you post more than a certain amount in a certain period of time, it goes to my spam filter for approval or deletion.

As you can see, they are all there safe and sound - 4 times worth.

cdor,
I posted the pew research poll that shows the amount of public support for gay marriage and it went into the ether… I’ll post it again in abbreviated form. It has some interesting data.

53% to 55% of American people oppose gay marriage.

54% of American people support civil unions.

59% oppose a Federal ban on gay marriage.

Is this going into the ether too?

I could concur with any supposition you would like to make, bs, but it stiil wouldn’t make it fact. The fact is that every state that has either had a pro gay marriage or anti gay marriage popular vote has voted, mostly overwhelmingly, against gay marriage. Unless I am missing something very obvious, in my case, or, oh so subtle, in your case, society is not ready to amend the collective wisdom.

The louder and meaner Perez Hilton screams, the less support he and his compatriots will receive. If judges make it so…we are really going to have a problem.
