Bush calls for same-sex marriage-ban amendment
In an effort once again to rally votes for his re-election Bush has put his foot completely into his throat with this issue simply because it points out the ugly element of prejudice that the US is supposed to be free of (ha ha....we all know that is a load of bullshit). But this ban on same-sex marriages, or rather the defining of the term "marriage" as being between a man and a woman is complete rubbish. There is no room for religiosity when it comes to these matters, and that is all that this boils down to....the Bible with a nice healthy dose of ignorance. Look at the facts people, there is no sacred institution called marriage in this country. There is only this idea of happily ever after that has become a joke and a pathetic reason for those blinded by lust (masquerading as love) to join together as one. Blah! This is not cynicism on my part, look at the figures. We have the highest divorce rate in the WORLD. And compared to same-sex marriages, different-sex marriages don;t have a shelf life at all. There is no value to the sanctity of marriage anymore; I wouldn;t be surprised i hald the unions in this country were shotgun weddings. I don't forsee how this "thing" will ever be ratified into the constitution and if it did, whatever small amounts of hope and optimism I had for this country would be completely annihilated. And the sickening thing is that the majority of Americans, those too busy thumping their bibles to understand how this acts against the very central tenet of Christianity (forgiveness/loving thy neigbor), are going to agree with him and vote for it. Why? Because we have the head of the redneck illeterati running the country. Don't believe me? Check it out for yourself.
If people want to be married, let them despite their sex, gender or preferences. Who the hell are we to judge and decide what is moral or socially correct when we live in the most morally ignorant and socially blind country in the world. I don;t even see the point of the institution of marriage to begin with, but if people want to partake, let them. Since when did love become political? And why should it have to be? For the love of god, we had a president at one point who was a cross-dresser!!! C;mon people!!!!
