Congratulations, Illinois!!!

And now that there are so many more who will be drawing Social Security benefits that come as part of marriage, Obama will be overjoyed to double the Social Security tax that comes out of our checks each month, and cut our benefits in half! WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO CELEBRATE~!

Since gays are only 3% of the population, how many more do you think there are going to be?

Is math one of those things you struggle with?

The next ACLU suit----------bigamists and polygamists are being discriminated against by the federal and state governments. We demand equal marriage rights for multi-person marriages.

Don't laugh, its the next logical step now that man/man and woman/woman marriage is legal.

Watch, it will be with us very soon.

Ignorant nonsense and demagoguery.

Same-sex couples are currently eligible to enter into marriage contracts, bigamists and polygamists are not.

Moreover, laws prohibiting bigamists and polygamists from marrying are Constitutional because they are applied to everyone equally, no particular class of persons is being singled-out for exclusion, such laws are rationally based, seek a legitimate legislative end, and are predicated on objective, documented evidence.

None of which is the case with regard to laws prohibiting same-sex couples from marrying.

And no, bigamists and polygamists do not constitute a ‘class of persons.’

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

If only.

The problem is you and others on the right are wide awake and seeking to deny same-sex couples their civil liberties, motivated solely by ignorance and hate.

 

[Mr. H.]

Explain why this causes you so much misery.

Married filing jointly.

That's as good as it gets.

Dependents? It's the turkey baster, sperm bank, or the adoption agency.

Or... Gay foster parents. Pile on those deductions!

It really doesn't bother me at all. Marriage carries its own baggage for one and all.

Well done, if only Australia could get with the times and follow - gay marriage is now legal in the ACT, but the Federal government is going to court to overturn the ruling. Homophobes.

Noomi, I know we have had out difference, but I am glad you bring an international opinion to this board. That said, I wouldn't put down Australia, they have much going for them and much to envy. I have a buddy who left the States for Australia's oil industry and he isn't coming back. But I digress.

I live in IL and welcome this law, however, it ignorant to say that the people against it are homophobes (some are, but most aren't). In fact the vast majority of IL legislators voted for civil unions just last years, which gave gays all the legal protections and tax benefits that marriage offers. They were just opposed to the religious part of the union, which I think they have incorrect, but I do see their point.

Actually, I don't care who you screw. It is the financial aspect that I find troublesome. Our SS system was not designed for the extra people. We better be recruiting more illegals to pay into it.

Gays are currently paying SS taxes anyway...

As an Illinois Conservative, I remember that the Governor won 3 out of 102 counties in his last election!

That means most of the state geographically do not support the liberal jerk!

For queers, I had no big problem with "civil Unions" other than it would be a stepping-stone to "marriage" which I don't like!

Why do conservatives always bring up how much land voted for a candidate? Land doesn't vote, people do.

That's obvious, but it does point out the benefit of the MSM in the Metro/ghetto areas for dimocrats.

Well, maybe instead of complaining how they vote, you could give then a good reason to vote for you?

Naw... too simple.

 

[JoeB131]

Sorry ass ignorant clueless queers.

Your nightmare is only just beginning...

Sounding like a bit of sour grapes, isn't it?

Nah, just drunk.

at 7:44 in the MORNING? Seriously?

Because they harken back to the 1820s.

Just like Alaska doesn't get 1/5th of the House of Representatives districts

And people wonder why so many bad things are happening in this nation, for allowing this vile shameful crap to happen. But that Illinois

We, unlike the dims, don't like to lie to people and play Santa Claus to get their votes. The dims depend on the slaves they have to vote for them, and their willing accomplices in the media perpetuate it.

People do vote The cities have most of the population in this is why democrats win.

People live within cities and most people within cities want a little government.

You talk about small government but you certainly love using government for certain things.

Why would you care about land when it comes to voting?

You brought it up

I think that makes Illinois the 15th state to legalize gay marriage.

It does...but it will be Hawaii that will be the 15th to enact it since the Illinois law doesn't go into effect until June 1st. People will be marrying in Hawaii before they marry in Illinois. Sorry IL...
