9. what, you didn't get the memo?
just in case you didn't, we're all wearing thongs on Thursday and going commando through the weekend. Don't forget, haircut and hissy fit on Saturday, then burn a pink triangle on your favorite bigot's front lawn on Sunday.

18. DID YOU NOT HEAR WHAT **SAID.....
Do people tend to forget that **said he was not like his party, he was FOR CIVIL UNIONS......did I not hear this, or did the church not hear him say this.....am I not right? Why are they deifying him when he said this......we need to let them know....and on abortion, isn't his wife and mom for 'choice'......he should not be able to get away with this.....

25. * said that he was willing to let the states decide on civil unions.
Of course, his political party will work to put anti-gay consitutional amendments on the ballots all over the country...including banning civil unions.

Don't believe that BS from *.

3. The repukes pushed against us (gays) and we didn't roll over
for them. We dared to push back and WE are called the radical ones. President shit-fer-brains was the one who shopped his anti-gay marriage amendment around the country to see how many foaming at the mouth homophobes he could get out to the polls.

gawd.. i think my head is going to explode.

7. it's the republican post election strategy to create division
Neither Kerry nor Edwards was for same-sex marriage, and in fact were emphatically opposed to it.

Yet somehow the rabid right managed to make the claim that they were FOR gay marriage.

Now it's being used as a wedge issue to further divide our political community. Guess what, Kerry and Edwards are still against same-sex marriage, and anyone who repeats that load of crap like those "liberals" is actually mindlessly repeating REPUBLICAN talking points.

Tell them to unbrainwash themselves.

8. I don't think it was really even factual
Wasn't this made a huge issue by the right with all the amendments against same sex marriage?

I didn't see that the gays did anything to cause this except in a few liberal states and elsewhere just by being there!

10. Toro Turd!
This is exactly the sort of thing we need to call them and the press on--waited for WHAT? The only thing the GOP wants from gays are their votes, and the only thing they'll get in return is more "waiting."

11. Listen and Learn
Peopke are frustrated. They will say many things out of anger in the next few weeks and months.

The key is to listen, learn, and come back fighting smarter.

16. Yeah, what's the big deal about getting married anyway?
I mean, some of our glorious leaders have gotten married three or four times! It ain't no thang.

Isn't it curious how the rallying cry "No special rights" from the 1990s-era repressives has become "And no equal rights, either!"

Asshats.

And sniffa, I suspect your liberal coworker is just very upset right now. I urge you to grant that person the grace and the space to calm down and recover his or her right mind.
