bush; Liberty for all...unless you're gay.
How does Bush square this:

Two weeks ago, I stood on the steps of this Capitol and renewed the commitment of our Nation to the guiding ideal of liberty for all. This evening I will set forth policies to advance that ideal at home and around the world.

To this?

Because marriage is a sacred institution and the foundation of society, it should not be re-defined by activist judges. For the good of families, children, and society, I support a constitutional amendment to protect the institution of marriage.

"Liberty for all". Unless you're gay.

2. You mean marriage hasn't been protected all these years?
I've been married for 31 years without protection? And why praytell does the constitution have to be amended to define marriage they way fascists want it defined? BECAUSE IT ISN'T DEFINED IN THEIR NOW.

3. If he's sincere,
I can't flippin' wait - after he's done with homosexuals, do you think he'll stop? What about divorce? What about single parents? What about people who live together without being married? If he's really serious about his version of morality, do you think he will be stopped? And don't these idiots think that eventually he'll come after them? What about cigarettes? What about alcohol? What about sex before marriage? God help us all. Now that he's "saved", the rest of us are doomed.
