Jersey Rejects Marriage, Lambda to Sue

"Like I said before, you can't get through a comment without nasty name-calling and sterotyping. Quite the opposite of the above mentioned icons." -- Oh Slave stop trying to make yourself look good. You have no idea what these men stood for. Every comment you have made is in complete contradiction of Gipper and Goldwater. You are ignorant and blind to the vitriol, and hatred that is actually coming from your side, every day, every single breath is hate from the left. well you can attack me all you want, doesn't change anything for me: stick and stones might break my --- well you know.

"please name me one congressman from the northeast. Just one. Waiting. You can't because there aren't any" What the hell are you talking about slave boy? I was referring to Repubilcans in general. Well Olympia Snowe is one. But then you're a smart ass and will say she is a Senator (I think that the Senate is also part of Congress.) Are you telling me that there is no one single republican in the North? So you are saying that every US Senate Seat (Unless Olympia Snowe doesn't count to you) every state senate seat, state house seat, mayor, council members is a democrat? And that there are no single republican voters left? I thought HRC blamed question 1 on republicans... Please re-think what I was trying to say before you try to make needless points to make yourself look good. BTW that democratic congressperson that won that District in NY that you are salivating over, well she is oppose to SSM, just to let you know.

GayElephant wrote "What you don't realize is that the North is still pretty much republican"----okay Uncle Tom, please name me one congressman from the northeast. Just one. Waiting. You can't because there aren't any. Hell the republicans even lost in the special election in NY-23. Yes, the north is pretty republican.

Gay Elephant: Self loathing Uncle Tom. You will fit in great with all the other hate filled groups at CPAC that don't want you there. ---The sad thing is that real conservative icons like Goldwater, Reagan, the Buckleys would be horrified at the vitriol you spew. Like I said before, you can't get through a comment without nasty name-calling and sterotyping. Quite the opposite of the above mentioned icons. So when you call people, idiots, drones, slave boy, you completely fit the racist, hate-filled model of todays conservative. So keep calling names. You are a self-loathing, racist.

"Nothing progressive is coming out of my native south. Again, the name calling "drone, hate history" is just so very childish. Very Glenn Beck of you Maggie...." I thought the south was seeing job growth as the major auto factories have moved there (thanks to the liberals and unions in Michigan) I guess you have more right to have animosity towards your own friends and neighbors and heck even your own family for being southerners. And yes name calling is pretty childish, but since most of you refuse to engage in adult conservation and start calling me names (Maggie Nazi etc) then one must assume that I am speaking to a child and hence I will treat you as such, Slave Boy.

"So the old racists of the south are now the current day republicans most consistent voting block." -- What stupid logic Slave Boy, the civil rights act was signed fifty years ago. So are you saying that all of those old racists are still alive and voting? LOL. What you don't realize is that the North is still pretty much republican, and the south still has a strong Democrat influence, ei Alabama , where the dems have increased power in the legislature since the last election.

"Gay Republicans are like black KKK members. What's the matter with you people? " Wow what a dumb thing to say. I thought liberals were all for "Tolerance" I guess only if your agree with them on Higher taxes, cap and trade, green fraud economy, open borders etc. Everyday I witness the blatant intolerance from the left. They don't just disagree, they HATE conservatives. And Black KKK? That is funny but maybe offensive to some blacks. I think it is vulgar to use such childish analogy to prove weak political points. In fact were there actually any black KKK members? I don't seem to recall. I know Dave Chapell played one in his comedy show. It was ridiculous funny much like your rant.

GayElephant wrote "Uh, just to clarify one thing, I know you are a drone and you hate history, but it was the democrats that were in favor of slavery."----You got something right. yes it was old southern democrats that were in favor of slavery. After Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act, the southern states became republican. So the old racists of the south are now the current day republicans most consistent voting block. Nothing progressive is coming out of my native south. Again, the name calling "drone, hate history" is just so very childish. Very Glenn Beck of you Maggie....

Wow lots of comments. Okay first of all to those getting into the Democrat-Republican crap a Republican voted in favor of same-sex marriage, Sen. Bill Baroni. 6 Democrats voted against same-sex marriage, and 3 abstained (which is incredibly cowardly). Daniel S - Spain, Canada, Portugal, all more than 50% Catholic, all have same-sex marriage your agrument is very flawed. Also people want marriage because they see people in other countries passing them by. GayElephant - You are right in that people should vote for who represents them the best. Clearly there are Republicans who support equal rights for Queers and Democrats who don't. You are wrong in thinking you are not a second class citizen. By not having the same rights and priviledges as other citizens because you are gay this by definition makes you a second class citizen, sorry to burst your bubble. Also going back over 100 years to show the Republicans

Bad luck for New Jersey... Congratulations for Portugal! The portuguese Parliament in Lisbon, just aproved a few minutes ago a gay marriage bill allowing couples of the same sex to get married! Portugal becomes the sixth country in Europe (along with Belgium, Netherlands, Spain, Norway and Sweden) to reach that civilizational goal on human rights.
