Obama: gay partners should have hospital access

Remember. Obama mandated it. Doesn't matter whether it is good or bad, the "haters" will attack it no matter what. It speaks to the inability to look at things objectively, for some.

All I have to say to thet is President George W.Bush..........
 
"I want people to have rights, but only the rights I want them to have!"

"The government should interfere with your life if I think your life is wrong!"
 
And so will the right.

The right will what? call the left homophobes or bigots? :confused: I can't speak for all my friends on the right but you won't hear it from me...........I use to get upset when they called me that....Probably got a few penalty shots for it........Now I just say the left calls us the intolerant ones because we have a difference of opinion........who actually is intolerant?

Oh and as soon I am called a bigot or a homophobe in this thread I will show you the post..........Its early my friend........

No, they'll use other adjectives. Anti-American is the first one that comes to mind. Un-patriotic, troop-haters, commies, you want me to go on?

What about him? That liberals did the same thing? Of course they did, and they were idiots to do that, too. Doesn't mean that conservatives "getting revenge" is either OK, or intelligent. The "haters" on both side are pretty pathetic.
 
Well it does seem the right wing is willing to discriminate against gays simply for being actively gay. After all who is it that supports the FMA and wants to restrict adoption, foster parenting, etc.

Being against homosexual marriage doesn't equate to hating homosexuals.
 
Sure is nice to see people arguing about who gets called names, instead of just calling names.

That may be true, but it then matters what one is FOR to determine where one stands.

Troop hater: I have used that one when someone on the left says people who retire from the military don't deserve the benefits they receive..........

commies: never used that one but I have called Obana a socialist because it is my opinion that is what he is.........

Unpatriotic: You'll have to show me where i called someone unpatriotic........

Oh and one the favorites from your side is Nazis which use to really burn my ass......

Don't forget, redneck, white trash, etc.

Do you remember the names he was called in here? Do you remember how a president of the U.S. was treated? Do you remember that some on the left wnated him murdered.....Did you know the left actually made a movie on killing him

Do you remember how the left treated a rela hero General Petraeus? What did they call him? General Betrayus..........
 

That's not a definition of civil rights. It's a timeline of past civil rights struggles. And it very well could have included gay rights.

What you need is a definition, not a timeline. Here's a good one:

"The rights belonging to an individual by virtue of citizenship, especially the fundamental freedoms and privileges guaranteed by the 13th and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and by subsequent acts of Congress, including civil liberties, due process, equal protection of the laws, and freedom from discrimination."

from West's Encyclopedia of American Law

The "Civil Rights Movement" is generally used to describe the struggle for civil rights for blacks (not women), but that doesn't mean civil rights is only about certain groups. It's about the struggle for your membership in a group not to matter to whether you have rights or not.

I never called him that.

Please stop playing group politics with people who aren't even here on this thread. Get back on topic. When and if someone calls you a name, complain.
 
Here's another way to put it:

Loving v. Virginia says marriage is a "fundamental right." However, that right is currently conditional: You can marry someone, but only the right sort of person.

Since we're willing to accept conditions to rights, I say we make the 2nd amendment only cover government approved pistols that must be registered at state and federal levels. With a $1000 registration fee. After all, everyone will still have the same right to keep and bear arms.

I mean, government deciding how our rights work is what you want, right?

NP, I'm not saying YOU specifically. Conservatives in general. And I've heard folks on both sides call the other side Nazi's.

Regardless, this is getting us off-topic.
 
It is the MO......Not all but some.....when they have lost a point they lash out with name calling..........

You've taken this to a new art form - you've lost a point so you lash out at name calling that hasn't even happened yet.

Your right we are not perfect but the rhetoric from the left is much worse........Like I said I have not seen a movie made to murder Obama yet.......

You want me to post some of the stuff folks have said about Obama? How about Kerry? Edwards? Clinton... either one? Come on, NP. The right is just as bad.

I disagree. The rhetoric from the right is JUST AS BAD. And just wait. I'm sure a movie will happen.
