re: #148 Aceofwhat?

there were a lot of states who had already eliminated such laws from their books, and to my memory it didn’t happen to the outrage of the entire GOP. does that help prove my point?

Possibly not, but the fact that it (Lawrence, followed by gay marriage)has been successfully used as a diversionary wedge issue doesn’t support that. Rank and file Republicans (and an awful lot of other folk, to be fair)are perfectly willing to believe that absolute worst about GLBT people. Can you think of any other group that has their marriages actually voted on?? Who else would frakking stand for it?!

Also, note the Pavlovian response anytime the SCOTUS rules in a way that the social conservatives don’t like.

Black Robed Tyrants! Revolution! Wolverines!!!
