why wont the NEOCONS support queer marriage?

Question

Since when is a reach around so wrong?

Answer 1

Gay marriage is WRONG, SICK & DISGUSTING.

Answer 2

I've never seen anybody give a *good* reason why they are against gay marriage (biblical quotes don't count as a "good" reason, since we don't make our laws according to the bible).

There are two precepts of law in the US that are pretty much universal: first, as long as an action doesn't harm anyone else, it's legal. Second, something that is legal for anyone is legal for everyone -- equal rights under the law.

So: how do neocons justify (without the bible) denying equal rights under the law? And what harm to them comes from the "action" of two people (who happen to be of the same sex) getting married?

Answer 3

By queer marriage I am assuming you mean same sex, not just unusual. The way I look at it if homosexuals want to be as miserable as heterosexuals, and have to go through all the crap of getting divorced let them!!!

Answer 4

Gay marriage is a wedge issue to take the attention off Iraq, corruption, and economic injustice. Since that didn't work in the last election, we probably won't be hearing much about it in the near future.

Answer 5

I am a Republican and i support gay marriage, why should they not be miserable like we are. When someone is straight and gets married they go from a free, independent life style, to a ball and chain. Why should i have to suffer and them not!!

Answer 6

i am sure that you dont really want to know but i will tell you anyway. it is because it is discriminatory. by not just leaving it is it has been throughout all of the history of mankind and opening it up to just this one perversion, you discriminate against all of the others who would have just just as much right as gays. how could you justify opening marriage to gays but not threesomes or twelevesomes or brothers and sisters or mothers and daughters? or a basketball team and a corporation? it just makes the whole thing meaningless and discriminates against any group that is excluded.
it is like posting signs in spanish in american airports, it seems ok at first glance but by including people who speak spanish you automatically exclude people who speak german or latin or sanskrit.
i dont know what a noecon is but i oppose these things because they are exclusive, disriminatory and unfair.

Answer 7

I don't think you know what a NEOCON is. I could care less if two gay people co-habitate. Hell, give them the benifit of a married couple. But it is not Marriage. The definition of marriage simply does not fit a same sex union.

What I do get pissy about is the liberals trying to normalize homosexuality to my children in gradeschool. There is nothing normal about it. It defies everything nature intended.

I have no issues with Gays, but i have problems when it's normalized to children.

Answer 8

Redsters prefer the Closet style relationship.

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Go big Red Go

Answer 9

Marriage is not a Constitutional right. If one alternative lifestyle, homosexuality, is granted license to marry, you have to include other alternative lifestyles as well.Take people who practice polygamy , siblings who decide they are in "love", people who practice bestiality will want to "marry" animals. That's equal protection under the law, by not offering these rights to ALL alternative lifestyles would we again be criticized for being "anti" whomever?...

Answer 10

Well it isn't that they don't support it, it is a Non issue thought up to get the Christian Right all in a dither and voting for Right Wing Conservatives.

Answer 11

You may not like what someone says under free speech, but it'd be unamerican not to support their right to say it.
