And in the U.S. women started out not having the right to vote. Just because it's tradition doesn't mean it should never be changed.

Even still, are you saying that you would rather have the government take the word and cause unneeded controversy?

Well, if it's a choice between "controversy" and "marriage rights for people in committed relationships," then I choose the latter.

I meant that comment derisively, btw

hmm well then

They only want to think of themselves as "progressive" and to avoid being branded with the "Hot Pink H", that being Homophobe. By the way, I derived that term from the other term "Scarlet R" for racisim, in case you were wondering.

Why don't you speak for yourself instead of assuming you perfectly understand everyone else's point of view?

Oh, because you're just being contrarian, that's why.

You certainly weren't complaining when opposite-sex couples were getting married, seeing as how, by that logic, you should be opposed to those as well.

Freedom of speech means you can't be arrested for saying something. Which you aren't.

Freedom of speech does not mean people aren't allowed to criticize you when you yell racial slurs at every minority you see.

But there are religions that tolerate gay marriage.

The Abrahamic religions aren't the only religions in the world, you know.

Oops.

There were no racial connotations to what he said. You're looking for racism where it doesn't exist.

He's basically trying to undermine the vote of those people from small towns, suggesting that their political views are due to misguided or irrational frustration.

Since when did saying that someone's views are misguided become so terrible?

Oh yeah, when a democrat said it.

*McCain talks about hating "gooks"*
Media: Oh, he just hates the ones that tortured him
*Obama says that there is oftentimes bigotry in small towns*
Media: NEWSFLASH! OBAMA HATES SMALL TOWNS

Because some people simply are unable to feed themselves. It's our responsibility to make sacrifices to help those in need. It's what makes us human.

Then the rich person had better suck it up. What's worse: punishing a rich person by taking away the money for him to buy a flat-screen TV, or punishing a child by letting him starve?

Cut Texas in half.

Two problems solved at once.

He won't get elected. America just isn't ready for an insane president.

What is bissing me off is that people get upset if they see something religious, they are even getting things like Jesus censored out of tv, you can't tell me that isn't stupid.

Can I get a source for this?

Political correctness is pretty much the biggest non-issue ever.

Complaining about it is just a fad started bunch of annoying white kids who got pissed of because they were socially ostracized for calling people (n)iggers and faggots and decided to blow the issue up by pretending people are called racist for calling black people black. Then other annoying white kids latched onto the movement.

Last time I checked, black people didn't go around yelling "fuck you cracker" everywhere they went (and the few who do are called racist), and last time I checked, no one has kicked down your door, ripped down your christmas tree, and replaced it with a holiday shrub. Stop bitching.

If we continued to let them just bomb us, like French, we would have a war on American soil right now. So stop your whining! And just try to say something Bush has done wrong. I guarantee I can show you you're wrong.

Canadians rarely if ever say something that is actually true about their country when they are trying to boast.

Fascinating idea.

What do all of these scientists with degrees know about the environment? I graduated from Armchair Scientist U and this one scientist (read: pundit) said that global warming is fake so it's obviously just a scam by lieberals to get our money.

They shouldn't be treated equally because they aren't equal. Intelligent design relies upon more speculation than conventional evolution. If they were equally valid theories then I would be all for them being taught side by side, but they aren't.

This could finally answer how life was created on Earth.

Global Warming isn't just going to turn the thermostat up 5 degrees and then stop. It's going to keep getting hotter after that. And it will ruin the Earth's ecosystem, and melt the polar ice caps.

Err, tear tear? Many of them were socialist nutjobs, and most of them were authors, directors, and actors. Whoop-de-doo, we went without some B-rate movies.

Last time I checked, America is a place where you are free to have whatever political opinion you want.

And I don't care if he thought he was doing the right thing. Mao Zedong thought he was doing the right thing, but he was still a terrible person.
