   Michele honey, if marriage is indeed “under siege” in this country, as you put it, it is heterosexuals who are doing the damage. You can’t lay the blame for this one at the door of the LGBT community; we can hardly do any damage to an institution that in most states we are still excluded from.

   As for your gloating about the amendment to the MN Constitution “by the people,” you shouldn’t be proud of this one; you should be ashamed. Unless you slept through American History class and Constitutional law (to say nothing of law school), you should know that leaving equal rights for a minority to “the people” has NEVER worked in this country. If “the people” had been allowed to decide such things in the past, schools would still be segregated and interracial marriage would still be illegal, at least in most of the South.

   Constitutional Amendments, whether Federal or State, have historically been used to BROADEN the rights of the people, NOT to restrict the rights of a few. Federal DOMA and all the mini-DOMAs throughout the country are a testament to bigotry and a shame and blight on a country that has the audacity to refer to itself as the “land of the free.”

   I was hoping for commentary. It would be torture to listen to her for 5 minutes about anything.

   nooooooo, sometimes you just have to let them speak for themselves secure in the knowledge that their stupidity and bigotry is self-evident.

   Your right Evan…but, it’s like she spreads insanity and stupidity by osmosis…I feel dumber and foggy minded after listening to her.

   And those…eyes…

   Palin is a joke and an uneducated moron, but I don’t question her basic sanity, but all joking aside, I do not think this women is entire “all there”.

   Excuse me, but hetero adultery and philandering are as old as civilization and the reason, among others, why their marriages break down. Its as old as civilization, long before same-sex marriage was a reality just 10 years ago. Why doesn’t she ask Rudy Giuliani, Newt Gingrich, John Ensign, David Vitter, Arnold Schwarzenegger, John Edwards and others and why isn’t she addressing their anti-marital behavior while they bleat the sanctity of marriage nonsense? Such a bunch of hypocrites, all of them including Bachmann. Has anyone seen her husband Marcus? My gaydar says “gay” even though he’s spawned five children. I would love to see his wife debate Obama and when it comes to the economy, Robert Reich or Paul Krugman. They’d wipe the floor with her, ditto Palin, Pawlenty and all the other right wing crazies.

   So the official figures show that the number of married couples has dropped and making it illegal for gay people to marry their beloved partners is what? Going to spur straight couples to tie the knot? Make more straight people want to get married now that they don’t have to fear that their gay friends/neighbors will also be married? Is this some sort of logic/wisdom that I don’t know about because it escapes me completely. It’s nonsense and old hat.

   Her logic is so scattered and wrong (like most equality opponents [Look for GetEQUAL's video of Gallagher admitting to equal marriage reducing suicide rates and then saying "I KNOW that [equality] is not the appropriate course of action!”] They all are so stupid.). I’ve come to the conclusion that some of equality’s opponents are opponents because once marriage is not limited to one man and one woman, they’ll never get a mate.
   “I’ve been at the head of the spear…” I’d like to put her at the head of a spear… X-P

   Here’s what you morons don’t understand. In order for the human race to survive, you need heterosexuals in the world. Gay people don’t procreate which makes them a waste of life and worth nothing to our society. You can cry all you want. Once the hippie generation dies off, you’ll have no rights and we’re going to start exterminating you one by one.

   Blacks hate you more than white people and that’s what makes it oh so sweet. See, you have nothing in common with black people and I love it even more. If you give blacks more power, they’ll start killing you now. Look at Uganda in Africa, they kill gay people and hate your guts, losers.

   You seem very upset, dude with misspelled name.

   Why are you so scared of gay people? Is it because you and your kind have lost this argument?

    I guess that post was supposed to make me angry or upset and was most likely trolling but I just can’t stop grinning at “forver.”

    I know, it’s hard for them to understand that if they spoke the English language even passably, we might be able to hear their words more clearly. Instead we’re faced with the grim reality that wingnuts type on the same exact keyboards we do, yet can’t seem to make it work.

    The troll who posted here doesn’t seem to be aware that there ARE gay people who are black. His comment would be offensive if it weren’t so mind-numbingly stupid.
