What is new on the Gay Marriage front?

[Ninja108]

Well this is unexpected yet positive. Methinks they likely realize a ruling against us will indeed be overturned and thus there's no point:

Indeed, this is a good thing for us, given that they were going to rule against us anyway.

After Windsor, America's top "expert" on same sex marriage, Maggie Gallagher, declared them inevitable nationwide.

This appeared on my FB page this am and I couldn't find a link other than this youtube page. Enjoy. It makes me want more people like him here in the US.

Well this isn't about marriage, but shows how people are getting used to gays.

A baseball team showed a gay couple on the 'kiss cam.' Here's how the crowd reacted.
Eric March Curator:

This is long overdue.
It warmed my heart to see a gay couple gets the loudest, longest applause on the Dodgers Stadium "kiss cam."

Wow. Gallup's latest poll on same-sex marriage shows a 5 point increase from last year. We're now at 60%!!!

This could not come at a better time. Some factors that really stick out include that the numbers have flipped in only 10 years time and that support for same-sex marriage now is roughly what support for interracial marriage was in 1996!

It's too bad that our election system is so jury-rigged to send such a disproportionate number of *so called* conservatives into the Capitol and or state houses.

I saw the clip. I am encouraged, to say the least.

That's an inevitable result of a two-party [STRIKE]conspiracy[/STRIKE] system. If we had other options, not so many would default to the extremists on one side or the other.

It's going to peak at roughly 65% - 70% by the end of the decade; the rest will just have to lump it.

65% by my calculations

Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore Wants Ruth Bader Ginsburg Impeached

Roy Moore, the chief justice of Alabama's Supreme Court, said he thinks U.S. Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kagan should be impeached because they've officiated same-sex marriages.

Nobody ever said this was going to be easy.

In an interview with Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, Moore suggested Congress should do something about Ginsburg and Kagan

I wonder if this is what he meant?

Australia looks like it will take the plunge by the end of the year:

Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore Wants Ruth Bader Ginsburg Impeached

They can't STAND having LIB'RULS on the bench, y'know??

They wouldn't be after Roberts' ass if he had also officiated a gay marriage (or tons of them) in any way.

Yeah, because Ginsburg officiated gay marriages, she's suddenly incompetent to rule on issues about The ACA (Obamacare), contractual law, trade, or the constitutionality of state laws. Got it.

There have been past SCOTUS cases that Clarence Thomas has been MUCH closer to. Funny thing, they didn't even ask him to RECUSE himself from specific cases...let alone want to impeach and get rid of him forever.

Republicans (who oversee the Party power structure - not necessarily the unaffiliated followers) are the most hypocritical bunch of people that has ever been seen in human history. The hypocrisy of that political party is total and absolute.

Good ol' boy Judge Roy Moore - speaking of judges who shouldn't be sitting on the bench...
