Hopefully, this election will render these increasingly irrelevant loons completely politically impotent.

Prop. 8 outcome key for America's future
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 10/31/2008 8:50:00 AM



Homosexual activists are paying close attention to the outcome of the upcoming election.

The results are crucial to the pro-family, traditional marriage foundation of America, and a wrong outcome could make things tough, according to Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth about Homosexuality.

"More and more the Democrats are pushing for a full repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Nancy Pelosi's on record for that," he explains. "Barack Obama is calling for a full repeal of DOMA, the law signed by Bill Clinton that protects states from being forced to recognize out-of-state gay marriages."

LaBarbera believes the California vote on Proposition 8, which would protect traditional marriage, would have national repercussions if it fails. "And if that doesn't pass, it's a bad sign for the pro-family movement, and the gay lobby would just be overjoyed and go into overdrive to promote their agenda across the country," LaBarbera contends.

In fact, if Prop. 8 fails and Democrats gain the White House and a congressional majority, a same-gender marriage bill is likely to pass in Washington, DC, in January, according to activists and city hall insiders. Evan Wolfson, executive director of the same-sex marriage advocacy group called Freedom to Marry, told The Washington Blade, "Where California goes, so goes the nation."

1. They're right - it is a battle to save our civilization.

But, as always, they're on the wrong side.

3. Unfortunately if Prop 8 fails, these asshats will just be back next year

I think there should be a limit on challenges to a law. For instance: A law passes. It gets challenged in the next election. The challenge fails. You have to wait 5 or even 10 years to challenge it again. I would even put a limit of a couple of years before you can challenge it in the first place (at the polls, this does not include court challenges for something that may be unconstitutional).

I wouldn't want to totally eliminate challenges. Times change and laws need to be changed accordingly. But to do this for several consecutive years does nothing but waste time and money. The law passed in the first place because a majority of people wanted it. Give it time to work. If it doesn't work, then challenge it.

4. Where California goes, so goes the nation, and we will vote NO to discrimination !!!

Prop 8 will fail in CA, the majority of us here are against discrimination !

5. Jon Stewart nailed the American Family Association, et. al., last year. I paraphrase:

Any political organization with "family" in the name is not a happy bunch.
