Liberals get stuck in eddy currents. "Gay marriage" is issue # 334 on the number of issues which are important to voters and citizens of the US. Any focus on this "issue" (no one really cares whether gays marry or not or what the hell they do in thier homes) is just a diversion for the miserable failure of the economic policies of Obama.


Let the gays marry. Impeach Obama.
If no one cares then why did conservatives spend so much time and money fighting this case? Why has the Texas GOP proposed to make homosexuality illegal and make it a felony to perform a gay wedding?

The man makes a rational point, so of course the forum neo-cons want to attribute that to the liberals.

Now, what were you saying?

Do you people even bother to consider the implications of your analogies before clicking 'post'?
Ah, but you failed to note that in America's case, socialism is 100% voluntary - but is imposed fraudulently.

So the "Vegetarians" have officially volunteered to subsidize the Carnivores. Yet believe they were compelled.

Oops, you didn't know that it was voluntary?
Go read the law for yourself.
Go read Title 42, United States Code, and the underlying statutes.

I have no idea what on Earth you're talking about.

*Paying taxes is not voluntary.
*You're the one who made the moronic "But! But! Vegetarians aren't required to underwrite people eating meat!" drivel that is demonstrably false.

Oh, and as for your inane "Read Title 42" dodge, here's Title 42. Cite what you think is relevant:
United States Code: Title 42,TITLE 42—THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE | LII / Legal Information Institute

Well?
