Deleware...who would have expected that? You just dont hear much about Deleware in the news....i thought it was sort of a backwater kind of place (a 12-9 vote..21 votes....must be a small state Senate!)
can New Jersey to the east be far behind??? I mean, both houses of the NJ legislators passed it in Trenton, but Gov. Chris Christie vetoed it.
Political opportunism on Christies part? If is thinking of running for prez he cant alienate the religous right. Or is he really opposed. In any case, no votes from me, if he's the GOP nom in some future prez election.! So much for GOP "moderation".

in case you don't get it your the radical.
20 years ago you couldn't get anybody besides a rabid left wing psycho path to support it, now after years of propaganda worthy of Goebbels you have a decent sized following and you are calling all those who disagree extreme.
you are a left wing extremest!
The bad news is that once the number reaches 17 or so, the successes will slow to a dribble.
..yeah, I think there is going to be some upper limit to states permitting gay marriage. A lot of states have amended their Constitutions to forbid this (Ohio was one, and the language in Ohios can be construed to ban partnership recognition as well),
....and I dont see these amendments being repealed anytime soon.

A judge on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals held last week that the federal judiciary discriminated against an lesbian assistant federal public defender in Portland when it refused to recognize her Canadian marriage, the Williamette Week reported last Thursday. In his ruling, Judge Harry Pregerson held that both Oregon’s marriage equality ban and the federal Defense of Marriage Act violate the U.S. Constitution.
This could be just the beginning of cases in states with constitutional bans on SSM.
So, there are 11 states who now have 'SSM', but none
have won by popular vote? And of the 33 who have voted, ALL have voted against?
Am I the only one who is troubled by this? How can all of our
'Representatives' be acting in our behalf, if they are voting
against the will of the people?
Sounds like Political Correctness at the highest level.
Big fat assumption, there! Desert SW not enlightened!
I suppose it would never cross your radar screen that there's more enlightened Gay people in the SW who are opposed to it!
What a false impression conveyed to the Straight crowd: All Gay people support it!
Nothing could be further from the truth!
Nope, it wouldn't cross my radar screen.
BTW...how's Sharron Angle doing these days. LMAO
