I sure will be, this place is very interesting, and is a great way to find news/info quickly, without sorting through all the “noise”. Find an interesting topic, and then jump to the sites or cites.
So if Jenna Bush gets herself knocked up during one of her tequila-fueled all-night sprees through the nightclubs of idle-rich Manhattan, will the President come out in favor of abortion on demand?
Or will Laura ship her down to Acapulco for a discreet Mexican procedure? Or will they find the “sperm donor” and arrange a shotgun wedding?
What’s wrong is leaving fundamental issues of equality to an up/down popular vote. Equality for all, and not at the whim of the majority, is the only proper posture to take on this or any other equality issue.
To make everything “fair”, let’s go to the extreme. Along with “unapproved” orientations being bad, let’s do the following so the Family Guy (Perkins) doesn’t feel left out. Henceforth, no one shall have sex except with their spouse. Said sex shall be only for the express purpose of procreation. It shall be performed only in the missionary postion, in the dark. There shall be no foreplay. There shall be no “afterplay”. There shall be no fancy neglige or Zorro costume, or anything else. There shall be no dirty talk, pillow talk etc. Anyone unable to conceive children shall be barred from marrying, since the sole purpose of marriage shall be to breed. As artificial insemination technology improves, all sex shall eventually be unnecessary and shall be outlawed (cuz it’s dirty). That sounds fair to me. Sex is bad. It leads to dancing, card playing and singing. Don’t do sex. Sex is bad. Mkay.
Don’t you see that the anti-SSM amendment would actually be reducing the proliferation of hemorrhoids?
Shees, talk about pointing out the obvious!

Hey, whatever happened to the “you may only post once per 60 second interval” message? :grumble grumble:

I hear college breaks in Europe are quite nice and they have very good doctors there - you know, just in case you were in a car accident or something.
“Hack her to death with a kitchen knife” should replace “hi opal” from now on.
Heh – I was just thinking that.
In the most recent remarks, one should also note that Cheney made explicit reference to his comments on the campaign trail in 2000; he held the same views back then and hasn’t changed them.
He was in support of states rights regarding marriage back then, was in the last 4 years, and is in support of the states now to define marriage as they wish. He has said that he would tolerate the administrations policy views, but personally disagreed with them.
What do you expect him to do, bang his shoe on the table and say, “I refuse!”? Well, at least he is publicly stating now that his personal views still lie with allowing for SSM.
Full disclosure:
We could compromise between tradition and this brave new thing. “Hack Opal to death with a kitchen knife?”
Not that I would, just to be clear.
wouldn’t it be simpler just to say:
“3. Hack Opal.”
??
I think you’re on to something. It’s less dangerous then saying hack Cheney.
I wonder if Carnivore will parse that and send the black vans to my house.
Just to be clear, “hack her to death with a kitchen knife” is not exactly new. It goes back about 25 years. In fact, back in my music school days, I had a friend that wrote a song by that name. His band usually played it just before his other hit, I Parked My Car in Harvard Yard (They Put the Boot on it).
They’ll transfer the birth to Alabama and the baby will never show up.
So, you’ve already had sex with a man and worry you’ll be forced to have sex with another one?
Wasn’t the first time a good experience?
Was the first encounter forced?
Enquiring minds wanna know.
I second that.
Shall we vote?
Separate but equal is neither.
Climb down off the cross, Ricky. I’ve explained how I feel about your opposition to SSM a dozen times before. I think your legal reasoning is wrong and I think your “keep the word ‘marriage’ for us heterosexuals” attitude is fucked up.
