Here We Go Again. Hate and Fear Is All They Have.

President Bush will promote a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage on Monday, the eve of a scheduled Senate vote on the cause that is dear to his conservative backers. The amendment would prohibit states from recognizing same-sex marriages.
The Senate Judiciary Committee approved the amendment on May 18 along party lines after a shouting match between a Democrat and the chairman, Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa. He bid Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., “good riddance” after Feingold declared his opposition to the amendment and his intention to leave the meeting.
They have had five years to do something about this issue, but they have done nothing. Because they know they can not get it passed. To become law, the proposal would need two-thirds support in the Senate and House, and then be ratified by at least 38 state legislatures.
But now that they are losing the American people on all the other issues, they pull out this tired old hate filled religious bigotry to rally those right wing, neo conservative, Bible thumping idiots to try to win one more election based on hate. Fear doesn’t work anymore, so they will go for hate!

Don’t we have an anti hate law? What other group of American’s could you preach about with so much hate and get away with it? What other group of American’s can you write an Amendment to our Constitution which is all about the Rights of the people, which takes away some American’s Rights? Not in my America!

This has already been answered in one court case. Just substitute the word gender for race.

The freedom to marry has long been recognized as one of the vital personal rights essential to the orderly pursuit of happiness by free men. Under our Constitution, the freedom to marry, or not marry, a person of another race resides with the individual and cannot be infringed by the State.

Please read my article on why this is so unAmerican and just plain wrong.

I have been unable to do any writing these past two weeks, as my generator decided it was time for a rest. Thank you to those who have continued to visit and for those who wrote me to see what was happening. I will be here tomorrow with the newest from me.
