Boston.com - Gay Marriage Ban Closer
Will Massachusetts always be doomed to be considered a "progressive" state, only to lag behind truly progressive states like California? I'm sorry, but the constitution is not at all the appropriate medium for bigotry. Ban it all you want, but do not defile the Constitution. Hear that, George Bush. Push all the agendas you want, but keep the Constitution out of it.
Think of it this way. Imagine if Democrats once again ruled the White House and Congress and decided that they were going to use the Constitution as a bulletin board for their agenda and didn't allow Republicans to marry (and therefore propogate, since it seems that Republicans don't favor pre-marital sex either) via the Constitution. You'd find that pretty galling, bigoted, and needless to say fucked up. But no, since you think that gays (and probably everyone other than white privileged fucks like yourself) are subhuman, that analogy doesn't apply now does it?
Talk about sanctity of something, think about the revered document you're trying to defile with your petty agendas. Talk about sanctity of marriage, how sanctimonious is a marriage performed by a priest who was molesting a young boy in the back room a day before the marriage? Please explain. It seems incredibly hypocritical for straight-and-narrow people to say that straight marriage is the only true marriage when divorce rates are over 50 percent and every week a new priest (who, by trade, abhors homosexuality as a sin) gets outed for molestation. Is that at all a problem to you people? Talk about fucked up!
I guess I'm just a bleeding-heart liberal but doesn't it bother anyone that others are being treated with less rights than the majority? Isn't that inherently wrong according to the laws set down by our forefathers? I recognize of course that said slave-owning forefathers were rather hypocritical, but times have changed and we pride ourselves in "freedom." Well, George Bush, all that "freedom" that people are supposedly dying for in Iraq is obviously a complete sham since certain people aren't allowed the basic rights that others are. This country is a freaking joke.
*sigh*
In other news, I've been messing around with the layout of the site so if you notice weird rendering or boxes or anything, don't be alarmed. Most likely they'll be gone in an hour or so once I've finished messing around with css layout goodness. If you want to hook up an RSS feed to my site, notice the "Syndicate this Site" link on the sidebar. RSS basically is a "news feed" that tells you when I've updated my site and also shows you what I've written. it's pretty cool, because as Ryan puts it, you can read 100 news pages a day without having to click to every single one of them! I'll come up with a recommendation for a good Aggregator soon enough.
