Lol not as much as I love pissing or Neocon conservatives and Limo liberals as find both out of touch but this issue is truly an issue of EQUAL rights.
Its a win win issue in no way will it affect anyone who isnt gay and life goes on.
If your a Rep and you subscribe to individual rights,less GVMT than you should be for gay marriage .
Gays have a right for same happiness and same misery as rest of us .
Relegion shouldnt be shoved down anyones throat and its ONLY due to relegion that gay marriage is illegal.
That would be fraud, illegal, and no I wouldnt be for that

Not at all. Your SS retirement benefits will be there for you when you need them. If you decide to marry (a person of the opposite sex) and have children they will benefit also.
You should try to be more civil. Your intolerance and insults are unbecoming of an aging hippie

So should I!
I’m not married & have no kids.
Oh yeah, and I'm straight.

You know, you keep on preaching intolerance towards your views, yet you deny basic rights that SHOULD be granted to EVERYONE to certain citizens of this country.
Heterosexual couples have no more rights to social security than homosexuals. The only difference between them is their sexual preference. They are still citizens of the United States, and they still deserve the same treatment of homosexual couples. Two gay men or women getting married isn't going to affect my marriage or my benefits.
It will add beneficiaries to SS that were not planned for and possibly didnt contribute. And its not just SS its all kinds of insurance, pensions and retirement plans that were put in place based on the marriage of a man and a woman with the purpose of protecting families
Gay marriage is not destroying the sanctity of marriage. If so, then the sanctity of marriage was being destroyed for thousands of years now, what with other cultures practicing gay marriage.

Everyone who works most likely contributes to SS. Why shouldn't a homosexual couple get out of it when a straight couple can? Why can't they protect their families?
They can. If a gay man reproduces his child and that childs guardian are protected.
Not their gay partner
