It that all that matter to You and others for any Candidate running for office. Your cause on SSM is such a minor insignificant issue when we have Economic and Trades issue, national Defense, Reform our tax code. Protect our Industry.?

The separations of the Branches of Gov and Obama Care!

Republicans will support what the court rules or voter decision, if this gets kicked down from the Supreme Court to the State Level. If they support the ruling in their moral values is anther thing. Many states so have some reference to common law marriage or a civil union.

Most churches of God and who studies the word will consider it a sin and downward life style. Those who are more Libertarian will not have a problem with SSm. (Heck marry your dog) If that is what pleases you.
Its call freewill it is the responsibility of all how to exercise that .

But all of this is certainly a side issue(SSM) and we need improve this country so every citizens has the opportunity to be prosperous. (No Guarantee outcome ) Compared to our other challenges SSM is real low priority in the world of Gov and a Nation trying to Prosper.

Well, I certainly agree with that. It's not me predicting that the nation will fail or that god will do some serious smiting if SSM becomes legalized in those states that still ban it. So you might want to take it up with those that are wound up about it.

Hey bring to ballad and see what the voters will do with if you and others think is has finally be excepted. How men and women who support immoral acts will have to deal with that in the end days.
Time will tell.

Good Luck with that!

Gays do not want to settle for a civil union. They don't want to accept the word of God that Homosexuality is wrong,but they want to change what GOD says is the definition of marriage. This is dangerous territory for America if the majority supports gay marriage.

God can kiss off. If he wants to change U.S. law then he needs to run for office. Otherwise his opinion is about as valid as anyone else's.

Your God has no say in the marriage laws of this country.

The people are totally incapable of deciding society's laws, so say the liberals.

1. It is the Constitution that establishes the supreme court, not "liberals"

2. Liberty, is not designated to the states.

3. The people do not have the the power to decide the rights of others by popular vote.

If you believe a civil Union and marriage hold the same weight and your hang up is over the use of one word, then by your own logic, we fell down the slop along time ago.

I think most people could care less...(yes, I say could instead of couldnt..deal with it)...like seriously, who has time to worry about marriage in general when you have a job and kids?....

But I also think its very telling that same sex marriage proponents have to throw a ticker tape parade everytime they receive a new survey stating that support for same sex marriage is on the rise. Things that are considered absolute truths, or even facts in evidence, usually dont necessitate this sort of peacocking after each survey showing support for a philosophy. You dont see anyone breaking out the banners and streamers about the fact that hardly anyone believes the earth is flat anymore. No, instead we are all aware that those of us who know the earth is round are in the clear majority, and thats that...no need to shout from on high about how most people agree with us...we know they do..and we are confident in that fact. But these same sex marriage activists come across as extremely insecure about their declared victory. Which tells me that somewhere deep down inside, they themselves, dont truly believe that any reliable majority consistently, or actively supports their cause.

I think this insecurity stems from the fact that they know that what theyre accepting as support is essentially just this sort of luke warm "meh, live your life and do what you want.." sentiment from most people...which isnt exactly enough for them to advance a same sex marriage agenda very far. They need people to actually actively vote and campaign for that which they feel passionate about...the problem is hardly anyone is passionate about it outside of rabid gay marriage activists themselves. This is why they have to create emotion for the masses...to make it look like there is this sea tide of passionately changing sentiment from everyone who is "coming around" and "evolving" etc every couple of weeks. But in reality, you can tell theyre scared to death on the inside that no one will have enough sustained passion for their cause to actually compel them to vote and campaign and fundraise etc. during the times that it matters.
