HATCH JUST SAID something like since this nation was founded
Edited on Tue Jun-06-06 02:22 PM by helderheid
traditional marriage has been the norm - this from a man who's religion is very young and was first based on polygamy - --- WOAH! :crazy:

3. And he is attacking Masssachusetts again
and the idiotic Catholic charities thing has come up again. Catholic Charities gave up their mission by choice. They had been placing kids with same-sex couples. Catholic Charities chose to abaondon the kids so they could make a political statement. Hatch is turning this on it's head, as Rethugs do when cornered.

7. You're forgetting, this just applies to us, not to them...
more bullshit from the "do as I say, not as I do" crowd.

How hypocritical for these people to stand up there acting like they're respectable, especially knowing that they've allowed their Republican President to shit all over the Constitution of the United States of America.

Not a single one of them are doing their jobs, the M*therfucking deadbeats! If they were doing their jobs, they'd be discussing IMPEACHMENT today instead of this tripe!

8. All together now, so they can hear us:

When this nation was founded, owning slaves was the norm!



Ot how about, "Your religion evolved, why can't the culture?! Asshole.

16. Let's go down memory lane with Orrin
remember the Clarence Thomas hearing and some of the perverted questions asked to Anita Hill by Orrin? And how about his answer to the press about Gropenfuher's past indiscretions acting as if his groping was done over twenty years ago instead of two years ago?

18. I don't want to live like it's 1776
Marriage 230 years ago does not apply to my marriage today.
