Senate Committee Votes To Repeal Defense Of Marriage Act

[cowpacino]

here, this might shut the liberal's up

[bleunt]

@cowpacino The liberal's up? Which liberal? And what is an up?

[whoo689]

As Gavin once said, "It's gonna happen... whether you LIKE IT OR NOT!"

[IKSDoomie]

We should be in the governments life not the other way around!

[Xianman06]

Who cares about an "openly gay" homo? I don't give a rat's ass what he does with his boyfriend,it doesn't lend any credence to his other ideas. The Jew World Order pushes this crap on all goyim.

Give the homosexual a medal or something, so we can get back to business. LMAO!!!!

[rhinnawi95]

I don't get why government is even involved in social issues. I'm a Christian, but Jesus told us to follow the Golden Rule. Treat others as you want to be treated. I could care less if you're gay. If you think it's wrong, don't be gay.

[jpn010110]

Ron Paul is a religious loon. End of story.

[Stingerbillion]

@jpn010110 Well said.

[pbfrank13]

@jpn010110 He's one of the few candidates who does not bring religion into his policy or speeches unless prompted in rare circumstances. The non sequiturs "he's don't believe in evolution and an embryo is a human" red herrings to the real issues this country has. At what point does a blastocyst, embryo, fetus, premature birth, new born gain natural rights? What specific point in development is a human being entitled to human rights?? Make the case for him being a loon, loons predict bubbles?

[TheImpeacher]

THE DEMOCRATIC GAY WHORES ARE AT IT AGAIN, THE DEMOCRATS WANT TO TRAIN YOU GRAMMER SCHOOL KIDS TO BE GAY, THEY WANT THE LAW TO SAY MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN TWO BUTT PUMPERS. Shame on the democratic whores.

[pbfrank13]

@TheImpeacher parents train their kids to hate others. No one trains to be gay anymore than someone trains to be straight. The government shouldn't be telling anyone what a marriage is and isn't. Celebrities get married/divorced all the time, interracial couples happily marry. Are those any less marriage than anything else? B/c your religion doesn't recognize it has no bearing in legality in the US, likewise the government shouldn't tell your religion to recognize xyz. USA =/= theocracy fyi.

[Zurnmusic]

Ron Paul wants people to be free, u can't handle fr3dom ur a asshat. Gays... be gay, put rainbows on ur car.... be free to be gay. No one cares.

[lifeispeachy91]

i gota say i laughed my ass ogg when dadt was repealed cause i knew the gay lesbian recruits will find out the only honor theyll get is too be barrack im a hypocrite obama will usem fior his means not for their advancement not barky the magic warmonger wants to go bomb iran lol . the biggest joke of all this is the military industial complex now has new lambs top slaughter this is the same dont worry about real issues just argue over mariage.

[GTR66960]

Who is this anchor? She's hot!!

[SourceJelly]

I don't see why the Senate would waste time doing this if the Republican-controlled House would kill this repeal.

[chocomalk]

The Government needs to get out of our private lives.

[deshaebeasley]

See what religion does???

watch?v=x1uFOPLgcl8

[derberg19486]

Americans scream for personal freedom then put hundreds of laws in place that do the exact opposite??? They are Two faced fuck heads at best.

[exiquio]

I'm with DJ Ronny P. The government shouldn't be in the business of telling people who can wed who. My old teacher, Coach Dukes, told me "one man's rights stop at the next man's nose." In other words, a democratic majority shouldn't be able to impose their values in the minority's backside. No homo.

[chocomalk]

@whatisahumans

Ron Paul was not even in Government when the bill was written and voted on, regardless of his position on the matter. You are just using this issue as a soapbox to propel your own agenda.

[ziomany]

@chocomalk while he was not in the congress, he supports it now, got a few sources to back it up too

[chocomalk]

@ziomany

"regardless of his position on the matter", he had nothing to do with it.

[ziomany]

@chocomalk if he votes against the repeal, he will now lol

[chocomalk]

@ziomany

Ron Paul opposes anything to do with Government even defining marriage, he is not against same sex unions.

watch?v=MudHUf1tI8E

Interview with John Stossel:

"support the right of gay couples to marry, so long as they didn't "impose" their relationship on anyone else, on the grounds of supporting voluntary associations."

[bobster451]

@chocomalk WRONG! He is for taking away a womb's reproductive rights. Fuck Ron Paul, He's an asshat.

[chocomalk]

@bobster451

Before you go jump of a bridge, you might explain where in this conversation the subject of birth comes up. And FYI, he is not "for taking away a womb's reproductive rights".

[TheMarksmenCat]

@bobster451 womb's reproductive rights AKA destroying a would-be human being because you're too much of a dumb fucking slut to use condoms

[bobster451]

@TheMarksmenCat Let's forget that barriers sometimes fail or that rape happens or even incest. Dr. Paul has stated he wants to outlaw ALL instances of abortion. He IS an asshat.

[pbfrank13]

@bobster451 False, he is personally prolife, wants Roe v. Wade overturned (doesn't matter POTUS can't do that anyway) and put it back to the states to handle. The inconsistencies in law is ridiculous, in some states its counted as a double homicide if someone murders a pregnant mother but the same mother aborting her fetus isn't murder. Furthermore, at what point is a fetus a human being? when it can be extracted and live outside the mother or only anytime after birth? Who draws the line?

[bobster451]

@pbfrank13 If Paul had his wish there would be no line to cross. He is not qualified IMHO. This is just one of many issues he has that distinguishes his disqualifications for me.

[pbfrank13]

@bobster451 President doesn't have authority, and some lines have already been drawn in the sand by some states. And no matter how you look at it, the line is very arbitrary. You dodged my question though and never explained your position and why you disagree with RP. He experienced a traumatic event and didn't like what he saw, that's understandable to disagree with leaving a living, breathing fetus in a garbage can while up the hall doctors were trying to save one.

[Mojo3192]

@bobster451 pbfrnk13 is correct in his post. Paul has clearly outline his personal, and political views on this topic if you research it more than skimming forums and liberal blogs. Personally his is pro-life, but politically he doesn't think the Federal Government should be saying who can get married or if women can or cannot have abortions. He thinks that those issues should be decided at a state level through the voting process not by decree of the Federal Government.

[bobster451]

@Mojo3192 I am not a paulite. I hope he loses. None of the GOP contenders are qualified to be POTUS.

[pbfrank13]

@bobster451 lets see POTUS qualifications, natural born, check, over the age of 35, check, lived in the US for over 14 years consistently, check. Obama had no record so consistency wasn't even able to be determined on his views. he was bought and paid for by wall street execs (McCain as well). RP gets a vast majority of his contributions from individuals and doesn't receive lobbyist money. The man hasn't been corrupted in all of his years in office. Obama is drunk on power already.

[bobster451]

@pbfrank13 Oh a birther in the midst! LOL! Forget it. enjoy your delusion.

BTW, Hawaii is part of the U.S.

[pbfrank13]

@bobster451 Again, with the generalizations, you claimed RP wasn't qualified, under the US Constitution's parameters he is. I never said anything about birther or Obama not being qualified. I am not a birther, I merely suggested that given a longer history in public office with a consistent voting record and someone who served what, 2 years as a Senator, its a bit easier to determine which way you can expect someone to vote in office.

[Mojo3192]

@bobster451 Perhaps not but you should at least educate yourself about the candidates even Obama before spreading outright lies. I spend much of my time research the candidates. Reading about the laws that are passed. It doesn't make me a cult member to support on candidate of another, it just means that I am educated on the issues and vote for who best reflects my political ideology. For me elections are not a popularity contest, it isn't about a great smile or fancy campaign slogans.

[bobster451]

@Mojo3192 May you ought to reread what I stated earlier. I have not spread any lies and think Ron Paul does not deserve my vote. He is anti choice when it comes to reproductive rights for women and he has stated that himself. He IS an asshat.

[Mojo3192]

@bobster451 While is is pro-life he also believes in personal freedom. He want's to take much the power from the Federal Government & pass it back down to the states where it belongs. This includes marriage & abortion. At the state level voters will have to vote to ban, legalize, or leave it unregulated. There would be states that allow it and others that don't. If you don't like your states stance on those issues or others you could always move to a state that does share your values.

[Mojo3192]

@bobster451 watch?v=QGaBAb_oS84 Ron Paul on Gay Marriage. watch?v=66jpPCIzza8 Ron Paul on Abortion and Stem Cell Research. All he says is let States decide.

[bobster451]

@Mojo3192 Why would I? Paul has a problem with science as well. He denies the facts of global warming also.

No, ALL the members of the GOP group of candidates are abject failures and none will get a vote from me. I agree with Paul on a few items but many very important one prohibit me from voting for this asshat.

I am done here.

[Mojo3192]

@bobster451 Wasn't pandering for your vote, was trying to show you that even though he has values that you are clearly against, that he values personal freedom above all. That's why he wants to pass these issues back down to the states. So the people can vote and have their say instead of having a bureaucrat from the Federal Government dictating their values upon us. This gives more power to the people.

[bobster451]

@Mojo3192 And I will repeat that his negatives outweigh anything positive.

I think we are done now.

[420gma]

@bobster451 Paul preaches personal freedom except when it comes to women! He's just another WASP ! Don't know what that means? Look it up.

[pbfrank13]

@420gma At what point do you give a fetus the rights of a human being? right after birth? What about a premature extraction? He has counseled many woman into keeping their kids when they realized the life processes they already exhibit (heartbeat, movement etc..) President can't do anything about overturning it with or Congress first repealing Roe v. Wade which wouldn't happen. He supports the rights of all individuals, not one over another based on gender, race, or affiliation.

[420gma]

@pbfrank13 Consuling is one thing forcing a women to have a baby is another.Worry about your body leave mine alone.In other words mind your own fucking business!The days of women having  as many babies as god and men like you sees fit are over !

[pbfrank13]

@420gma More often than not, no one forced the woman to have unprotected sex or shear ignorance when it comes to contraceptives. Why is it alright to end the life of an innocent soon to be child? No one is advocating forcing women to rear to term, I am merely postulating questions about when a fetus has human rights the rest of us have. Don't put words in my mouth. I'm atheist btw, I you claim to be against force yet I bet you support the use of force via taxation to pay for others' welfare.

[PanWolven]

@pbfrank13 As far as abortion goes, if a woman does not want to give birth to the fetus in her womb, then the only alternative to allowing her to have an abortion is to force her to give birth against her will. It really is that simple. What ever happened in order for her to get pregnant, whether it was an accident or sloppiness, doesn't matter. There are at that point only two options, pro choice or forced birth. How people view the fetus is secondary.

[420gma]

@pbfrank13 I agree birth control should always be used by both parties involved.Do not do so is foolish and irresponsible. I do not remember mentioning religon or taxes in any of my posts.Women who are not forced have babies usely don't end up on welfare. I think you don't want to pay taxes period.You paul supporters are a self centered group.

[pbfrank13]

@420gma "The days of women having as many babies as god and men like you sees fit are over" you generalized me as following god or some type of male misogynist birth of which I am not. You didn't mention anything about taxes but when someone advocates not using force in terms of women and choices, they usually have no qualms about forced taxation, some of which goes directly to welfare. Self centered? hardly I donate/volunteer, spending others' $ on other people is not compassion fyi.

[pbfrank13]

@bobster451 Womb's don't have reproductive rights, PEOPLE have rights. Its people like you who automatically dismiss his views without realizing the other things he can do the first day of being POTUS, like ending our foreign involvement. Obama had all the time in the world, expanded wars and is just recently bragging about a withdrawal from Iraq(although not a real withdrawal). He has been right on the economy and individual's liberties for decades. Google Ron Paul.

[bobster451]

@pbfrank13 I have read enough on Paul to assure myself he is delusional on so many issues. Especially his hate of government and all things to do with government. He will not get my vote. Neither will any of the other GOP candidates. I have no desire to move my nation backwards in time.

[pbfrank13]

@bobster451 You are delusional to believe government has progressed anything. War on welfare? more people now more than ever are on welfare (even prior to 2008 crash), encouraged broken homes, Dept. of Ed? Our education costs skyrocketed and we have stagnation in education levels to show for it. I can't think of one thing government does that couldn't have been better provided locally or privately at a better rate of return. Lets not forget it was government law enforcing segregation on buses.

[bobster451]

@pbfrank13 I see the solution to this as something different than voting Paul into the office of President.

Government is NOT the problem, stupid anti-government people are the problem.

[getatmegamer]

people are fucking dumb who think its governments job to have a role in marriage

[FreedumbFighter28]

@getatmegamer amen

[dafttool]

@getatmegamer Marriage is and always was a civil union, created in pre-Biblical Babylon by the king to track & tax family inheritances. In other words, the government has ALWAYS been a part of marriage. It is religions that have co-opted it as their own, pretending to own the concept.
