Between A Rock & A Gay Place
http://www.365gay.com/newscon04/12/121404klein.htm

Alberta has virtually no legal options to oppose same-sex marriage, Premier Ralph Klein admits. But, federal Conservatives vow a fight that could go on for years.

After reviewing with provincial Justice Minister Ron Stevens the Supreme Court ruling on redefining marriage, Klein said the province has no chance to block a federal same-sex marriage law.

``There are some things that we might try but he (Stevens) anticipates that we would fail,'' Klein said.



don't these morans have anything more important to worry about

2. they have time
because we're in a war; our economy is in the toilet

this is a very easy issue for them to deal with--it's emotional and they can take the moral highground and claim that same sex marriage destroys heterosexual marriage blah blah blal

they don't want to deal with anything that would take real thought

3. It's a distraction.
Hey folks, don't look at how many Americans are being killed in Iraq. Look instead at these gay folks who want to get married. That's what you really ought to care about.
