Anti-gay marriage amendment will be on the ballot in Florida.
And just in time for November! How convenient. :eyes:

God, those knuckle dragging, mouth breathing hatemongers are so predictable.

I'll financially contribute to helping defeat this piece of shit. But given that this is Florida, this thing, sadly, could pass. I hope I'm proven wrong. And it would be nice if, the Democratic Presidential nominee, whoever it is, would not try and embrace this thing just to get votes.

2. What do you expect from a state that won't allow gays to adopt?
And sadly, knowing this hellhole as I do, it will probably pass. It just depends on whether you can get enough people in Miami-Dade, Broaward and Palm Beach counties to vote against it to counter the hatemongers in the north.

Sadly, this also means that there's a pretty good likelihood that people will turn out to vote for this crap legislation and Florida will probably be red in November, as most of the people who would vote for this will also vote for the Republican.

6. I saw that in the paper...
Wanted to slap myself in the forehead. Just what the state needs, more anti-gay evangelical dopes sticking their noses in somebody else's business.

Notice they're doing nothing to regulate straight people's marriages, and straight people cause all the divorces.

8. Are you sure about that?
The article you link was posted December 14, 2007. I posted the Rude Pundit from January 16 of this year saying it failed to make the ballot.

Please advise.
