HBAR, I think he was talking about the spousal benefits specifically, not the individual ones that everyone is entitled to when they're of retirement age.

no, i get what you are saying. you are saying if you are heterosexual you deserve to get spousal benefits. if you are homosexual you dont? that about sums up your position right?
i dont know any gay people, i have probably only seen a couple gay people in my whole life. but, what you are saying is gay couples dont rate the same consideration as straight couples. that is why the liberals are winning and republicans are losing.
life and America are about freedom. not some twisted conservative version of it. freedom and equality is for everyone. i would ban non church marriage and take away any tax benefits, spousal benefits, etc for being married and solve the problem.
What I find funny, They gay dudes, that own guns, Yes, there may be quite a few, once they get over the euphoria of civil unions, are going to find out they can't share mags. Then the Hickster may have hell to pay. [LOL]
Read a lot of good points from many of you here.
To me, all this recent legislation is just "feel good stuff" for the people that currently have the power. Gays have, and always will get together and do their thing...it was said that medically they already had legal recognition? ....now the spouse benefit thing will be legal, and in the long run will have costs to the system. I'll be upfront about it, I don't like that the "everyone is a winner" approach is now active legislation. If you think about it, that's what it is.
Why don't we just call them the T-ball laws. We'll molest a constitutional amendment by taking away all your military death mags, and force everyone to have smaller ones...cause if it'll save just one life it's the right thing to do. And, the poor gay community has been persecuted way too long, we'll make that all legal with paper work and rings and all that happy feel good crap. FTR, I do not care if you're gay, but go ahead and enjoy your special rights in our state now. Kind of along the lines of the marijuana.... Neither are recognized by the federal government....yet.
Until the country approves of it, it's special rights given and guaranteed rights taken away. And wait for the lawsuits, they're a coming.
I hope for this Libtard regime to be voted OUT (here AND fed) and repeal the amendment 2 injustice. I still think this is the best country in the world, and I love her, but this sure is one fucked up system being run poorly, we'd better get our shit together as a country or it's all gonna come apart one day.
