“"no sure who is who" they don't play role like that. no gay couple is playing husband and wife......­.....that'­s a stone age attitude. if you saw them as people you wouldn't think that, but they are gay first, people second to you.......­.......my 86 year old parents knew better than that......­.”

“Do you feel those gay family memebers are actually equal to you? Sounds like you'd rather not have them in your family.”

“NOPE not at all..not equal..giv­e me a break. My wife and I don't get in their face about our sex lives..mak­e big overt displays just to prove our point. My wife's niece is one of the sweetest people I know and my kids love her. They do get un comfy when her hubby/brid­e..not sure who is who, gets all political at family get togethers. My point is..if they would not be so abrasive in their march for same sex marrieage.­maybe they would get more support!”

Marriage Equality and the Myth of "Gay Apartheid"

“Mixner is using the wroing term yes, but where is your anger? See Langbehn, Janice a woman who though she had a valid medical power of atty was kept from her partner of 18 years -- she died alone. The social worker in th Miami hospital explained it by saying "You're in an anti-gay state". The Fed Courts dismissed her suit against the hospital saying there was no law forbidding this.

I am a cancer survivor, and I feel there are states in my own country i cannot go too -- because situtaitons like this. It's not apartheid, but then what is it?! You have a responsibility to answer that, since you fault Mixner for being overzealous or inaccurate in his word choice.

To ignore situations like mine is to be irresponsible at best.”

“But you are asking the author for empathy when it's clear his primary goal is to defend parochial victimhood, even while--iro­nically--f­aulting gays for failing " ' to recognize connections to broader social justice issues.' "”

“Absolutely. When I make this case to GOP reps when in calling on bills, my pay offline is "There's no George Wallace or Orville Faubus Fan Club, is there?"

Far from "maintaining marriage for their kids", these people will become family embarrassments in future generations. Do Faubus' grandchildren tell the story at work or parties about how their granddad blocked the doors to Little Rock Central High? How many dates before his great-grandchildren cuold admit being related to him?”

“Larry David isn't funny and Bill Donohue is a dou che bag.

Next issue?”

Bacygirl replied on Oct 31, 2009 at 15:45:56

“I've never watched Larry David or Bill whoever. We encourage censoring what children watch on television, but I'm just as choosy about what I put in my own brain. I don't go for the cheap laugh.

Unfortunately, the success of these shows is not a testament to their brilliance as much as to the fact that people will watch just about anything. If it's on HBO and you're paying for it, it must be highbrow, intellectual humor, right? They say it's 'critically acclaimed' programming! I'll be my own critic, thank you very much.

Who cares about the money they make? There's nothing wrong with working a decent job and having principles at $20 an hour.

When you get to a certain age in life and information is harder to retrieve, you hate to acknowledge you've clogged up the old mental storage with a lot of insignificant information and cheap laughs. I can't remember the names of the new babies in our family, but I can tell you a stupid joke I heard at work over 35 years ago. "How come witches can't have babies? 'Cause warlocks have hallow weenies!" No joke.”

Gover replied on Oct 28, 2009 at 16:58:49

“They made more money on this one show than you'll probably make all year by not being funny then.

So the next issue is: if you don't even have to be funny to make a year's salary in a day, why don't you become a TV comedian?”

JohnFromCensornati replied on Oct 28, 2009 at 16:58:26

“The success of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm seem to indicate that yours might be a minority opinion regarding what's funny.”

“Honest and open? Have you met any politician?

Your point is undercut by the fact that to make this ammendment -- it had to voted by into the bill. That vote was in July. It was 63 to 28 (9 absent). The final vote on the whole bill was very similar: 68 to 29 (3 absent). Exactly 5 GOP (0 Dems) Senators voted for the whole bill that did not vote for the seperate ammendment -- there votes wouldn't have mattered in this case.”

Idea1013 replied on Oct 22, 2009 at 22:19:09

“Yes I have and not one has struck me as honest yet. This is why I question the system. Day after day I see people here, in class, even in my family who say the same thing- all politicians are dishonest, cannot trust any of them. This makes me question why we aren't working to change the system if this is the way so many feel about it. I'm glad the bill got passed, but I feel it is absolutely my right to be disappointed in the way it was passed and to question why it had to be this way.”

“they are checked for that -- but not check to see if the people who "signed "actually signed them -- the process for Ref 71 smells like there was signature forgery to me.

the 71 people also def told some people they were signing "a gay rights petetion" I think a lot of these signers may have been duped and that will come out.”
