Time is only on our side. As the younger generation looks at the hypocricy of the older generation they will eventually give the same rights to all Americans. The LGBT community will eventually be able to get married. It will be fun when the first state votes to legalize it. That will bring the avalanche.

Trust Jesus not his followers.

I see son of liberty is making his desperate plea for us to stop pushing this issue. Notice they started pushing the "31 times it hasn't passed, so stop pushing for it," a bit after Nate over at 538 figured out that every year more states will allow gay marriage. Expect the Maine initiative to be overturned by initiative in 2010 when there is a regular election. Expect CA and maybe a few other states to do the same.
Then instead of 31 to zip, it will be 31 to 2, with the 2 wins being most recent. After that it will just snowball.
Still, it is funny that the "son of liberty," is trying to deny individuals rights by giving the government the power to deny them...

Fantastically funny video....I love the dueling banjos in the background!

You can talk about clarity from now until doomsday but after 31 times in front of the public they are not buying it.

You can only hit your head against a brick wall so many times...

Isn't it time to start to listen to what they are saying?

Christopher Colombus didn't listen to what They said, either. Nor did Pablo Picasso, or Chuck Yeager, or Robert Oppenheimer, or George Lucas, or Anthony Zuiker, or a slew of other people who proved Them wrong. Are you always going to be a gamma male who does what They say?

Just because I'm being pedantic:

Christopher Columbus was wrong. No, the earth is round, but nobody disputed that. It is a myth that anybody tried to stop Columbus because they thought it was flat. No, they tried to stop him because he thought the earth was small.

And he was wrong, they were right. It's only because he was lucky as hell that there was another continent between him and Asia or he and all his men would have died.

And George Lucas was wrong, too. His prequel trilogy is a disaster, destroying everything good about the original movies (um, the Force is must bacteria? And why does Obi-wan not know of Leia when he was there for her birth?)

Being a "maverick" doesn't make you right or smart or good. The vast majority of times, it makes you dumb. It's just that we don't hear about the ones who failed miserably except in the Darwin Awards.

And still the clocks turn forward, and soon that most-relia­ble-voting demographic (the elderly)--which also happens to be the most opposed to same-sex marriage, won't be a problem anymore.

"You can talk about clarity from now until doomsday but after 31 times in front of the public they are not buying it."

The voters don't have a voice in who gets rights. They didn't vote on interracial marriage either, it would have been rejected in higher numbers than SSM as well.

What's your idea? No rights for gay couples at all?

[oafishcad]

No.
