Destroying the sacred institution of marriage. Nice work if you can get it!
Quote "On behalf of all gays and lesbians living in Minnesota, I would like to wholeheartedly apologize for our community's successful efforts to threaten your traditional marriage," reads the letter from John Medeiros. "We apologize that our selfish requests to marry those we love has cheapened and degraded traditional marriage so much that we caused you to stray from your own holy union for something more cheap and tawdry." #2

I don't know the full background, but it all sounds like a child destroying another child's toy because it can't have one like it for itself. I hope most adult gays are more mature than this attitude suggests.

Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!
Yes, it's quite fitting. Anytime a public figure makes a stand against gay equal rights on the basis of 'it's not good for the family', it's always a very satisfying comeuppance to see them completely and hypocritically screw up their own personal lives just to show what a proper moral example 'they' set (in comparison to 'us'). (I'm not nasty- if such persons hadn't made complete bigot jackasses of themselves, I would surely feel sorry for them (oh, but in that case it wouldn't be a news story- public figure open mouth, insert foot!)  )

Just American hipocrisy and bigotry. Getting worse by the month.

Koch commits adultery and does not believe in same sex marriage. Where exactly is the link between her belief that marriage should be between opposite sexes and her adultery?

The connection? I think there is an area in the normal human brain that regulates .... humor!

Just American hipocrisy and bigotry. Getting worse by the month. From over here, it does not look like getting worse. Au contraire, it's getting funnier by the month! #10

Koch commits adultery and does not believe in same sex marriage. Where exactly is the link between her belief that marriage should be between opposite sexes and her adultery? Well, uh, maybe it's because her stand against gay marriage is supposedly based on the moral/spiritual qualities linked to the institution of marriage? Implying that she is somehow fit to judge gays and their partnerships as morally inferior? From whence she then gets caught with her own pants down? Should we use shorter words? #11

Ahh, now thanks to your post I understand the grounds for her objection to gay marriage. You can use short words, long words or even abbreviations if it makes you feel better. All I wanted was an answer to my question. Thank you for enlightening me on the issue. #12

You're welcome, but it would help if people were actually reading the link above to understand the issue before commenting...
