Keith Olbermann's Proposition 8 Special Comment

[ytany84]

Keith Olbermann: "..nobody is asking you to embrace this expression of love"

If you don't embrace it your called a funny term used by queers and their sympathizers to attempt to turn you into a all around hateful person, what is it again? oh yea! "homophobic"

"but don't you as human beings have to embrace that love"

Yes but Olbermann fails to recognize that love is conditional amongst human beings. Most human beings won't accept "love" as an excuse for sexual acts they find inappropriate.

Gay Marriage is a legal thing and I personally disagree with homosexuality (LGBT) but I didn't vote for something that has legal status written all over it. These folks dont want your acceptance they just want the government give them benefits like they do with Man & Woman.

beautiful. i couldn't have said it better! 

[Alphazoi]

Yes, "the people" voted against the gay marriage. But this is what Thomas Jefferson said in 1801:"Bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression." -- Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801.

They need to get over it, the people voted and this is what they want. Get over it, get back out to push your cause and try again in future elections

[jimmytubejames]

Hey the way I see it the people voted. Live with it. That is our system. Go back to the ballot box again and make a difference next time.

[DJBlack909]

Speak The Truth Keith!!!

[JanesCalamity]

Well done, bravo.

I cant believe you fell for KO's phony baloney theatrical speech. He's just trying to win an Emmy award to save his Titanic piece of crap show, and there's no better way than to tug at the heart strings of the poor picked on gay community. All they want to do is love and you're not going to let them. Pllleeeze! KO is so transparent in his delivery that I could hardly see his feigned expressions of deep compassion. Or maybe that was due to my throwing up. I need some KOpectate.

I just want someone to explain to me this bible verse, if you can explain it to me and millions of other, maybe we can change our view.

Romans 1:26-27: "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly,

PLEASE TRY!

[JWilliamson1987]

Wow, justme, ONE VERSE in the ENTIRE BIBLE justifies treating people like second class citizens. You've got to be kidding me.

The Bible also states several times over that fornication and is a "sins," should the government pass legislation outlawing that? Right now, there are no laws against it. Why don't you campaign for that?

The Bible hasn't even been proven. The United States was not founded on the Christian religion. (Treaty of Tripoli, signed by John Adams.) Read your history.

Re: Romans 1:26-27....first convince me that this text was written accurately, translated accurately, and accurately conveys what God "wants" for us, and then we can discuss what it means.

[ytany84]

@timboytx - The text was "written accurately" because the writer used understandable Greek words and followed basic grammar to complete his thoughts. Translating it isn't that hard I believe you could even make an attempt by using a lexicon and doing word lookups, the idea should be conveyed for that text pretty easily. It conveys what God wants for us because the Bibleis still preserved till this day...

[rkearns1985]

WOW powerfull!!! Thank you Kieth THANK YOU!!!!

[buckwilliee]

yeah u fucknut your fellow news commentator is a gay. stop lying.

[rg0057]

He never said they weren't. He said nobody in his family was gay, and none of his colleagues told him personal stories of prejudice pervading their lives. Which colleague told him a personal story of prejudice pervading their life?

[obamawill2008]

and buckwillie, you is a dumb
