Marriage has ALWAYS been defined as between a man and a woman. It is centuries of tradition. A civil union can be created to give all the same perks as traditional marriage so what's the big fucking deal? Is this just a ploy to diminish the traditional values of most Americans or just a political weapon to divide the people? Cause it sure seems so since there is an alternative that achieves the same goal, civil union legislation.
I mean this is considered an "alternative" lifestyle so why the push for a traditional label that has long been honored by everyone?
Many of you claim some of us are against equal treatment but you're wrong. You can have equal treatment but you don't need to trash traditional values to achieve it.
1. why do we need yet another thread on this, gramps?
2. this has already been discussed ad nauseum.
separate but equal isn't equal. you'll just have to get over it. just like people who made the same type of arguments about anti-miscegenation laws have had to get over it. (although as we see on this board, some of them still aren't over it).
Uh Oh, the Obama camp is beginning to lose their perceived "high ground" on this issue. Time to switch gears!
What social issue will be used as a deflection next, Jillian? We know for a fact it will not be the economy.
