New Hampshire to vote on gay marriage repeal

So,e of your lefty friends don't agree with you.......they think when they will obviously lose on a ballot measure to let activist legisatures and judges handle it..........You can't have it both ways.....Not in the USA.

Well that's likely because I ain't actually a "lefty" and that's just some retarded political partisan BS you like to throw in there to spice up the stupid.

BTW, we're up to "activist legislatures" now? Wow. What's next "activist voters"? People voted for them for office yes? Aren't you saying that's fine? I guess it's fine if they vote your way, but if they go the other way it's "activist". Jesus.
 
Except in your case it's true. Or are you too politically correct to admit to that reality?

You would no know reality if it was staring you right in the face my left wing friend...all you got is to attack me personally......sad........

Did you know that there are no lefties in DP. They all all Libertarian (like you) independent, other, etc. You have a problem though because every time you respond with one of your far out left wing posts you all give yourself away...........

If only that were my problem. My real problem is that I am violently opposed to stupid. You're like my arch nemesis.
 
This should knockdown future gay marriages in this state and when the SCOTUS voids gay marriage then all those other marriages will be voided. Lets see how one of the most liberal states votes.


DARIUS DIXON | 3/21/12 7:11 AM EDT

The New Hampshire House is expected to vote Wednesday on whether to repeal the state’s two-year-old law that legalized gay marriage.
Republicans backing the rollback bill say it would define marriage as between a man and woman, while allowing the state’s nearly 2,000 existing same-sex marriages to remain valid, The Associated Press reports. If approved, the measure would take affect in March 2013 and re-establish civil unions for same-sex couples

You think New Hampshire is one of the most liberal states? You saying that shows that in this post right away, you have no idea what you are talking about.
 
Of course they know. They are just trying to see if they can sucker us into their shallow toxic cesspool. The race card is a Joker. But they can declare it wild if it's in their hands only.

Yes. Racism and bigotry do not exist. It's clearly been fixed and no longer happens. Brilliant logic of yours there Einstein.
 
so you lefties get to pick and chose when we vote huh? Don't work that way my left wing friend..........If you don't like our form of Gov. there is always Cuba and China you could try out.......
Or Zimbabwe and Somalia, since they are the post-racial ideal.

Apparently you have no idea what form of government we actually have.

We are a representative republic. This means that we vote into office representatives that decide on laws for us. We do not vote, as a whole, on every single piece of legislation. In fact, I would say that the majority of our founding fathers would have found it a hugely bad idea to allow people to have a direct vote on most issues, particularly social policies.

It also means that those laws are limited by the rules set forth in the Constitution for protecting the rights of the citizens from someone trying to vote away other people's rights or voting to keep others from rights with a mere majority (>50%). The branch of our government that ensures that the Constitution is being upheld, particularly by the states since the addition of the 14th Amendment, is the SCOTUS. There is a way to keep rights away from certain groups of people if you can get a supermajority via the Amendment process to vote in place an Amendment to do this. I don't see that happening though when it comes to same sex marriage. More and more people every day want legal same sex marriage.

The logic is that as long as inferior behavior is shown by a race, then racism should exist. The race card should be discarded from the deck because there is nothing wrong with racism unless applied to groups that behave well and produce much.

Yours is a new interpretation created in the catastrophe of the 1960s. Before that, ethnic minorities like the Irish had to make themselves useful and acceptable to the WASP majority.

when a Legislature acts against the will of the people they are a activist legislature and I have been saying that all along my left wing friend.

They do exist and as long as there are lefties like Sharpton and Jackson around they will always exist.....I will never understand why you lefties want race baiters and racists like them as your leaders but you do.

You don't just do it to me, you do it to anyone from the right who kicks your ass in a debate......

What part are you referring to as the "new interpretation"?

Of course this doesnt make the old interpretation right either. The old interpretation of "person" used to only include white males, now it includes other races and females.

There is nothing wrong with racism. Gotcha.

Racism only exists where you politically want it to. Thick blinders you have there buddy.

Your the one confused.......You think Hussein Obama is a God....well I have a clue for you.....He isn't......

But the people vote them in, yes? Is that not what you claimed earlier yourself? You're contradicting yourself.

I do? Must have been why I didn't vote for him in 2008 and why I most likely won't be voting for him in 2012. Here's a tip, when you shape your argument to make a personal slam on someone, know wtf ur talking about first. Makes you look much less moronic if you take that approach in you ad homs.

Just because I don't hate Obama as much as you do doesn't mean I'm in love with him. Hussien Obama indeed. Grow up dude.

The first time I heard the bullying slogan, "This is a republic, not a democracy" was from a Far Right fringe group in 1969. Before that, we took it for granted that we were a democracy and all the influential people told us so. A republic is an oligarchy, which inevitably turns into a plutocracy or hereditary aristocracy, then collapses from the growing exclusion of those who formerly gave it its strength.
