They believe in redistribution of wealth, confiscatory tax rates, giving free contraceptives to women using other people's money, and are the authors of our current nearly double digit unemplyment rate, $16 trillion debt, downgraded credit rating, the loss of U.S.A. prestige in the world, and the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi and the subsequent coverup.
Oh yeah, also Fast and Furious, Solyndra, the Ft. Hood shooting(which was an act of terrorism, not "workplace violence"), the involvement of U.S. troops in Libya in direct violation of the War Powers Act - not to mention a continuing recession that was caused by Democrat polices.
The Vietnam War Moratorium march drew 600,000 demonstrators on November, 15, 1969. (And that was just D.C. There were thousands of people marching across the country.)
The Vietnam War (Second Indo-China War) was begun by the French.
They should have never let their colony defeat them.
But we are discussing the French - what can one expect?
Remember Dien Bien Phu - it was little thought of battle at the time in 1954, but greatly influenced my parent's and my generation's futures.
I wouldn't have been born, if not for the Vietnam War.
(liberals on this forum collective thought - YAY!!!).
This is unexpected: growing resistance in France, of all places, to the government's plan to legalize same-sex "marriage" and adoption. Wow. Note the characteristic French bluntness of the protestors - "a child is the result of a man and a woman's orgasm". None of this American "science is doing away with all that" nonsense.
So, WP, which do you think will happen first:
France legalizes same-sex marriage, or another state here in the U.S. does?
My money is on France, though it could well become legal in California again in the next 30 days, so it might be close! What say you?
Also, what do you think the next five states to see same-sex marriage legalized?
My guess is:
California, Illinois, Delaware, Rhode Island, Hawai'i
Why would a protest by an insignificant percentage of the French people cause anyone to change the way they feel about the French, whether it be like or dislike??
The 100,000 is actually total all over France not a single rally. Also, it's not too big of a surprise is it? People aren't big on church attendance anymore, but Catholicism is still a pretty strong force and the majority of non-European migrants to France are Muslim which as an overall group has been more vehement in their denunciation of homosexuality and/or gay marriage rights.
Yeah - but the liberals here love to decry support for marriage(defined as the union between a man and a woman), but are the first to champion Muslims - whom, if you will recall - were responsible for the 9/11 attacks.
Go figure.
Liberals just hate religion when it suits them politically.
That translates into their hatred of Christianity - although they celebrate Christian holidays such as Easter, Christmas, and Thanksgiving.
My guess is Rhode Island. It is the last little piece of New England that doesn't have Marriage Equality.
I expect in the year 2013 Scotland will be the first place in the British Isles to have Marriage Equality.
Rhode Island used to be the place to which Quakers - or anyone who didn't kowtow to the Puritans of Massachusetts, were deported - after the judges in Massachusetts sentenced them to several lashings(50-100 and sometimes more) over several days through many cities on the way to the colony line.
No surprise that they were a bastion of freedom then, and still espouse common sense by supporting marriage between a man and a woman, now.
Not a coincidence that Massachusetts is still Puritan today - only with a liberal bent.
Mitt Romney was the last good governor there. I hope that a Republican succeeds Governor Patrick, but I doubt that it will happen.
Massachusetts has gone to the darkness of liberalism.
Did Massachusetts voters choose Patrick because they thought that he was Irish? LOL!
Kinda like Barack O'Bama?
Sure is interesting how Democrats - who used to be able to claim the solid Catholic vote - have declared Catholicism as their enemy.
And they think that can continue to get the Hispanic vote?
Good for France. Of all places they show backbone and resolve standing up to the homosexual militant bullies and are unafraid to do so unlike the spineless wimps over here afraid of going against the grain of the politically correct thought police and being called libelous names. The perpetually angry and unhappy homosexual militants are learning the hard way that everyone is NOT as enthused and excited about homosexuality and the fairy tale notion of homosexual “marriage” as they are.
