You know what IS? A ballot proposition.</description>

		<description>More and more of us are WAKING UP, America.   No taxation without equality; simple math.

Now the feds will need to repeal DOMA and DADT, grant us FULL equal rights (including marriage), and begin to start viewing our families - OUR FAMILIES - as the tax-paying contributing members of society we are.....well.....we USED to be!

Because if our HOMES, our FAMILIES, our very BELOVED are not acknowledged and valued as other families are legally, whatever we do outside of that home will never be acknowledged and valued legally, such as adopting children, working without discrimination, or serving openly in the military.  

FAMILY FIRST.   What is more important than FAMILY?

We owe the IRS absolutely NOTHING until equal.  NOTHING. Get it?  

This is NOT a test.   
This is NOT a debate.  
This is NOT a vote.
This is definitely NOT a popularity contest.

This IS justice - GAY TAX PROTEST.</description>

		<description>If Ms. Etheridge wants to see *real* taxation without representation, she should talk to the ~600,000 residents of the District of Columbia. They might have a real reason to complain these days.

		<description>People need to understand that social approval is quite a different thing from legal rights.

California already recognizes and legalized Civil Unions and recognizes Partnership or Significant Other for legal purposes.

The homosexual citizens protesting the passage of Prop 8 are not protesting a lack of rights, they are protesting the NAME of the institution they wish to copy.

Copy away.  That’s right.  COPY.  But you don’t get to have it.

EGAD people are sick of the re-definition of words to suit the desired result.  (socialism disguised as democratic ideals; racist ravings disguised as theology; islam disguised as the ROP,  democrats disguised as Republicans)

In the quest for social acceptance, gays might try limiting their proclivities toward PDAs, something this fairly conservative nation frowns upon.  Sorry but that’s just a fact, Jack.

I will never understand the mantra of the homosexual community that laments “our bedroom, our business” and then puts their ‘business’ out on the street or in the public parks or public toilets….

For the reader’s edification, have a look at the link included – BUT ONLY IF YOU DON’T MIND LOOKING AT ‘private bedroom business’ right on the street.  Yes, Folsom Street.  The Folsom Street Fair.

		<description>Could someone explain to me why people in America people get so upset over gay marriage? Other than the god thing. Why is it so bad? Who is it hurting? Is it better to keep these things under the rug and pretend they don&#039;t happen? Is America going to revert back and start putting people who don&#039;t fit the majorties ideals into the loonie bin and pump them full of drugs? What is so wrong with civil unions? Do they not have the same rights? We have gay marriage in Canada and it doesn&#039;t seem to hurt anyone here. Why are people getting so involved into what others do? How does a gay couple getting married affect someone who Christian, Jewish, Muslim or Catholic other than offending their religion? Honestly, all of these groups have offended me at some point but I don&#039;t have a problem with them doing what they do a believing what they believe. Shouldn&#039;t it be the same with gay marriage? I really just don&#039;t get it.</description>

		<description>@daviemoo - are you compairing your sexual preference to the color of my skin? You do not have to advertise your sexual preference, I have no choice about my skin color. Everyone see&#039;s my skin first, unless you are advertising being gay how the hell would anyone know?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Obama is AGAINST proposition 8.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The people who voted for him were FOR it.

&lt;blockquote&gt;She only said she was refusing to pay state taxes. To not support Obama would be to refuse to pay federal taxes. She is not being hypocritical, and she was only trying to make a point.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So you don&#039;t believe in principles.</description>

		<description>She can be married to her girlfriend here in Denmark.  She can also pay 60% income taxes, 25% sales tax, and 180% tax on the price of each new car ($10,000 car costs $28,000).  But she can definitely marry whomever she wants!  Welcome, Melissa.</description>
