I just can't listen to the marriage amendment debate any more...help

[VelmaD]

Remind me that there are decent human beings in the world. :)

[cheezus]

1. wish I could... nt

[Magrittes Pipe]

2. There are not.

Everyone sucks.

[VelmaD]

3. Not any more if the republicans have their way...

and get their noses firmly planted in all of our bedrooms. ;)

4. here, maybe this will help

Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee-do
I have a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee-dee
If you are wise, you'll listen to me

What do you get when you treat people well?
As if what they do is consciously swell?
With a little luck they'll return the good vibes?
and we might just live more fulfilling lives?

At least that's how I think of it

Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee-da
If you're not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee-do

[VelmaD]

6. I LOVE YOU, MAN!

*big smooches* :loveya:

[BigMcLargehuge]

8. awww shucks,

twent nothin'

you'd do the same for me if I was feeling blue :)

[VelmaD]

10. The next time you're blue...

you just let me know and I'll tell ya "Violet, you're turning violet, Violet."

Every day is just a little better if there's a Willy Wonka reference in it. :)

[BigMcLargehuge]

12. VelmaD, I certainly will

and if you could work in a "I'm going to be the first person transmitted through television" that would make it perfect.

[VelmaD]

14. I want a TV that spits out chocolate bars.

Almost as bad as I want an oompa loompa NOW!!!

[BigMcLargehuge]

16. here's five

enjoy... and don't feed them to a Vermitious Knid if you get bored with them.

[VelmaD]

18. WOOHOO! You're so good to me.

*big smooch*

Alright y'all. Get to work hanging that snozberry flavored wallpaper. Tastes like real snozberries don'tcha know. :)

5. I think that it is important to protect the traditional definition of...

beer. Water, hops and malt! We must restore the purity of our precious bachanal fluids. I urge that we pass an amendment to our constitution that will enforce the beer purity law of 1516 in our country and make violation of the law punishable by death.

[VelmaD]

7. It's all this non-traditional beer that's responsible...

for out of wedlock births, poverty, smartmouth kids, and athlete's foot.

[JVS]

9. Champale is particularly guilty

[VelmaD]

11. It is an abomination unto the LORD...

I'm sure St. Paul said so somewhere. :evilgrin:

[Droopy]

13. Are they seriously trying to get that thing passed?

I don't watch much news now-a-days. Maybe I should turn on the tube now and then. Don't they have to get some Dems on board to pass the amendment? I guess it's time for a letter writing campaign.

[VelmaD]

15. I don't think they expect to get it passed...

they're just using it as a campaign ploy. They want to get people on the record about it so they can try to hammer then on their vote later.

[Droopy]

23. Oh, I see

They're trying to play the old holier-than-thou card. Typical.

[Beware the Beast Man]

17. Ummm...there's a button on your remote

That says "OFF." Use it. That's how I manage to cope.

[VelmaD]

20. Honestly I don't know which is worse...

listening to them "debate" or not listening and knowing it's going on adn wondering what nonsense they're spewing.

[Beware the Beast Man]

22. I know the feeling-

Sometimes you just have to torture yourself. Faux News, to me, is like a hairshirt sometimes. :grr:

[Heyo]

19. Because it shouldn't even be a debate...

Marriage should be handled by the churches or whataver other entity... and the government should stay out of it... the government should provide legal civil unions to any two people who seek to have one.

And there definitely shouldn't be an amendment regarding marriage in the Constitution.

Heyo

[VelmaD]

21. Not just "any two people"...

I have lots of polyamorous friends and I'm a firm believer that if 3 or 4 or more people all love each other and are capable or giving informed consent and want to get married they should be allowed to do it.

[Q3JR4]

25. I'm with you,

if a man and a woman were both equally able to take as many husbands and wives as they wish (alla Dr. Flox on Enterprise), that wouldn't be a problem to me at all.

[VelmaD]

26. Heck, I need 2 or 3 husbands...

and maybe even a wife or 2 just to keep up. ;)

[Heyo]

27. See I don't agree with you there...

Once you do that, why not 100 people?... why not thousands or a whole big group.. what if all the Scientologists wanted a civil union...?

I think it should be for 2 people.... but that's just my opinion..

Heyo

[Skittles]

24. sometimes when I am stuck in traffic I think of ways to thin the herd

usually the first one is to get rid of all the homophobes. Here in Texas that would make for quite and easy commute. :D
