Thanks. wonderful wonderful info. here keep up Culinary Skills Egg Salad Recipe French Onion Soup Recipe the pleasant worked. I cannot actually lead a more creative comment as i’m abit out of my deph but i will be checking back here for further updates.

“Preserving” marriage is just a softer way to say- “Gays shouldn’t marry.” That doesn’t sound very “pro-gay”, because you’re essentially denying rights. And why shouldn’t they? Take a look at just five arguments which I’ve personally heard that immediately come to mind:

1. Because the rate of fraudulent-tax-break-reaping marriages will increase? (If a gay man/woman is going to commit marriage fraud they’d do it regardless of whether gay marriage/civil unions are legal)

2. Because Churches shouldn’t be forced to support an idea that goes against their core beliefs? (Nobody’s talking about requiring all churches to perform gay marriage ceremonies. However, there are many progressive religious organizations that would be happy to allow this… In the end it’s the individual churches decision)

3. Allowing gay marriage is just a gateway into more heinous laws being legitimized, like man-boy relationships, and who KNOWS!? Maybe even bestiality!???! (If you believe this then there’s obviously no hope for you ever reaching a state of open-mindedness. Please go back to bootleggin moonshine across the state borders and dirt roads of your Appalachian stompin-grounds)

4. My kids shouldn’t be subjected to seeing two men or two women kiss in public. They’ll get gay! (Yes… I agree… Homosexuality rubs off on people like Glen Beck’s extremist brainwashing immigrant-hating jesus-freakin opinions. It’s like fairy dust, if your kid gets close enough to get sprinkled, he’ll get gay. Best advice: wear a mask and retreat to the farthest possible whites-only suburb where individuality is frowned upon and diversity is unheard of. You should be safe there for the next 50 years… After that, build an underground fallout shelter. Just watch the first half of “Blast from the Past” for instructions)

5. Marriage belongs to “Gods People” and nobody else. (Again, a model example of true religious compassion and acceptance. But seriously, if you want to claim it as a religious practice then just take a look at the countless differing religions that practice the tradition. I’m sure after a while you’ll find many that directly conflict with your religion’s viewpoints. Does that mean because they follow/practice a different set of beliefs from your own, that their marriages shouldn’t be legally recognized by our state governments? Bottom line- A legitimate couple in the United States, regardless of sexual orientation, shouldn’t be denied the option to receive the legal rights and benefits a marriage affords. And yes, there are gay people who identify themselves with religious groups as well. And I’m willing to bet they aren’t affiliated with yours)

You’re not really preserving anything. You’re simply denying this minority group a right that a majority of our citizens have, which is to enter into a legal/spiritual commitment. All you’re “preserving” is discrimination.

Allowing citizens of our nation to have marital arrangements (preformed by willing churches) legally recognized at the state level is far from destroying the “sanctity” of marriage. Freedom of choice and diversity are what brought about many of the liberties and opportunities you support/enjoy today.

By the way Sara… Cheney only acknowledged his supported gay marriage after his daughter publicly came out, and while it’s a great step in the right direction, this debate should be non-partisan anyway. After all we’re talking about human rights, not tax policy, healthcare or war. And I don’t support Obama’s take on the matter.

Check out this article for a more thorough, educated and less sarcastic view on the matter of non-partisan trends: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/will-the-fight-over-gay-m_b_210049.html

“I’m confused, Stewart shows msnbc cover the protest for 30 seconds and then shows Fox’s 3 highest rated shows, Beck, Oreilly, & Hannity actually covering the story by calling out the rest of the media for not covering it? Sounds like Fox covered it the most to me.”

You must be a bit slow. That hole montage where Beck, O’Reilly, and Hannity were “covering” the gay protest? Yeah, that was actually footage of them covering the Tea Party protests. That was John Stewart being clever, and it went WAY over your head.

Go watch the clip again, maybe you’ll understand this time…

Massachusetts Representative Barney Frank is not backing down from his remarks that this weekend’s gay march on Washington is “a waste of time at best.”

Frank, the nation’s most powerful openly gay elected official, criticized the effort a second time in less than a week.

On Tuesday, he said on the Michelangelo Signorile radio show: “I literally don’t understand how this will do anything. People are kidding themselves. I don’t want people patting themselves on the back for doing something that is useless. Barack Obama does not need the pressure.”

And really, if Barney Frank doesn’t think something even remotely related to homosexuality is “important,” how important could it really be??

Tucker Carlson is pro-gay marriage. Dick Cheney is pro-gay marriage. Obama…nope.

So preserving marriage is “anti-gay”? Tell that to Hillary and Obama. Or the voters of CA.

Those were clips of Fox News calling out the rest of the media for not covering more of the tea bagger protests. Fox News was critical of other media for not covering a large protest, yet they themselves failed to cover the equally large gay protest – the implication being Fox covers right wing protests and ignores left wing protests cause they are biased.

If Fox is such a superior news network, why are you comparing them to what everyone else is doing?

If Fox likens themselves as a legitimate news outlet, they can’t pander to the right like you claim everyone else panders to the left. Fox is simply no better than anyone else, and in fact exactly like MSNBC, if they do not cover a massive protest like this the *same* way they cover tea baggers.

Is someone going to fact check this clip? ;O)

Yes, they gave considerably more coverage to 9/12…but wasn’t 9/12 organized by Glenn Beck? And wasn’t 9/12 pretty much ignored by all the other networks? I don’t recall a ton of coverage of the Gay Right march on the other networks…was there a lot?

It’s too bad that they even had to have this march. If Obama would just pull out his pen, and over turn DADT, this would be over.

FOX just needs to stop pretending they are a legitimate news organization and align themselves with the entertainment division. It’s great TV, and they are competing ratings-wise with other entertainment channels already…
