Mickey Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Now that the election is over and the evangelical vote is in the bag, Bush bagged his promise to push for a Constitutional Amendment banning Gay Marriage. Doesn't that make him a........... FLIP-FLOPPER?????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 I think it makes him a typical Republican or Democrat at the national level. Though you and the rest can keep pretending they're somehow different because it makes you feel better to belong to something. P.S. Learn how to close a tag.

Mickey Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Even I knew this was going to happen. 208371[/snapback] I don't want to complain too much because I think a Constitutional Amendment banning gay marriage is a bad idea. Still, after 4 or 5 months of the "flip-flopper" stuff, he deserves this reversal of his to get tossed at him. "Turnabout is fair play". The people who should really be mad are the evangelicals. Maybe they will have some vigils on the steps of the Captol like the did when they were praying for God to politically castrate Arlen Specter. Ahhh, the power of prayer, sometimes it definitely works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And everyone, INCLUDING the "gay lobby"....the folks pushing for gay marriage is being disingenuos (sp?!?) about it. They talk about "love". "Love", my eye. Its about the ability to get medical benefits only married couples can. Its about getting estate rights when a spouse kicks it. Its about getting a break on car insurance. And on the OTHER side of the coin, its not about "the sanctity of marriage"! HA! Its about the insurance lobby, the medical lobby and even general business lobbys pushing Bush to make that Consititutional ban happen so that they dont have to kick in the "marriage" discount to all those new "happy in love" gay couples, costing them billions in revenue. Add THIS issue to the myriad of other issues the general public is duped about by the spin merchants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they're already used to getting f***ed up the ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
