Same sex couples are tired of compromising.
A U.S. Citizen shouldn't be a second class citizen for any reason: Monetary, race, sex, age, or gender preference. Equal is equal, any compromise on thst is NOT equal.
First I'm hearing of a divorce. What's your source? And, sm
if her protesting is ending her marriage, there wasn't much there to begin with.
Divorce is a whole 'nuther thing..... sm
and a poor analogy, at best, but since you "went there" I'll follow along with you.
Divorce is against God's word, except in certain instances, and I feel that the seemingly flippant attitude about it does affect even strong marriages. It's on TV, in politics, and rampant in our society. It tears families apart and damages the lives of children who have no say in the situation. Society has put in the minds of people that if the going gets a little tough or if I find someone I like better, then I can just get a divorce. Divorce, by the way, has also been around since biblical times.
You said that if these issues were not in the public, then I would not know who was married to whom. You are right. If homosexuals just decided to cohabitate and live their lives without drawing attention to themselves by demanding equal marriage laws, then I wouldn't know. But that's the whole point. They DID draw attention to themselves by demanding marriage "rights." So please don't lay that at my doorstep.
What kind of man would divorce his wife at a time like this? Oh, never mind...
what am I saying?
The jerk - provided she truly is going through divorce now.
Sorry. I don't recognize your creator...
mine gave men free will. And it is your choice of usage of that free will to kill an unborn child. Perhaps your creator sees it that way...MINE does not. Choice, choice, choice. I have had that shouted at me all day long. My God gave people free will and a guide book to go by in how to exercise that will. The choices you make are YOURS, and it is those you will answer for, just like I will answer for mine.
Come to think of it, you couln't recognize

Bet we'd recognize each other in a crowd
Spent most of my adult life in Texas but never lost my Arkie accent. We go to NE OK all the time and they don't sound any different than I do.......now my husband was born and raised in Chicago but he's lost some of that accent. LOL He loves pinto beans, CFS and mashed taters and white gravy. He better, I cook it.
That "soda" thing just drives me nuts too. Hubby has learned that "coke" is any soft drink..even his Dr. Pepper. When people want a soda I always wonder why they would want to drink Arm & Hammer!!
If you cannot recognize inappropriate experience...
in a statesman perhaps you should not be commenting either? I love how Dems...who laud individual freedoms...want to curtail everyone else's who don't agree with them.
so that explains it. Pubs can't even recognize
They can't come up with a single coherent sentence that describes John McCain's plan to fix the economy because they are so hung up on trashing Obama. ACORN is not an economic issue. Let me give you a clue. The subject of the economy would include such notions as the free falling stock market crash, the mortgage lending crisis, the bail out plan, record-high unemployment, job losses, job security, stagnant wages, outsourcing, free trade agreement and its impact on the US economy, the cost of gas, the cost of food, the out-of-control cost of health care, out-of-reach medical insurance coverage, the scarcity of affordable housing, the national debt, the devaluation of the US dollar, bank consolidation, deregulation....just to name a few. Can any of you pubs out there articlate for the rest of us how John McCain's policies on these issues differ from W's? It's a simple question. What is your candidate's policy on the economy? Anyone? Obama's policy has been laid out already today...all 40 points of it...on this board. We are now looking for the MCCAIN economic policy and how it will address these economic elements. Do I make myself clear? What part of defend your candidate do you not get?
Can you not recognize a dead thread

You wouldn't recognize the truth
if it jumped up and bit you on the nose.
You can't even recognize an olive branch when extended.
I give up trying to reason with you. You aren't who I thought you were. No need to respond.
REAL Americans don't recognize dual citizenship.

And you don't even have the ability to recognize one of your posts coming back to smack you in the
Oh, so now it was a divorce/custody hearing? Baaaaa-Baaaaa.

Good for you! Most people would not recognize good...sm
character if it hit them over the head, just sheep who follow along without thinking for themselves, believing the political pundit spitting out garbage.
