FYI- Same-sex marriage is socialist too
King: Same-Sex Marriage Is ‘A Purely Socialist Concept’

http://thinkprogress.org/2009/09/23/king-gay-marriage-socialist/

KING: Well, we’ve had a significant percentage of people that have come to Iowa as same-sex couples to get married. And that, that percentage is up there some place over a fourth, if I remember correctly on the data that I have seen, and I don’t know that anything is complete at this point. I said that if this is allowed to stand, Iowa will become the Mecca for same-sex marriage and that is becoming the case. I know that there have been buses that have been, have gone to Iowa with loads of people in them in order to get married under the judge-made law.

But if, there also would be no rational argument against group marriage. And I just take this along the rationale even further and would say if relationships between individuals cannot be prohibited by the state legislature then there is no ban that can actually be constitutional that would ban group marriage. And it wouldn’t have to be for reasons of, let me say, love or lust. It could be reasons of profitability or avoiding taxes or accessing benefits.

So in the end this is something that has to come with a, if there’s a push for a socialist society, a society where the foundations of individual rights and liberties are undermined and everybody is thrown together, living collectively off of one pot of resources earned by everyone. That is, this is one of the goals they have to go to is same-sex marriage because it has to plow through marriage in order to get to their goal. They want public affirmation. They want access to public funds and resources. Eventually all those resources will be pooled because that’s the direction we’re going. And not only is it a radical social idea, it is a purely socialist concept in the final analysis.

1. Well of course.
Same sex marriage will lead to whole group marriage will lead to socialism and debauchery. Everyone knows that.

I already saw that from MILES away.

3. Divorce, Pedophilia and hatred are conservatism
And lets give a big shout out to david vitter, master of family values who likes to have whores dress him up in diapers.

Conservative arguments are like bourbon street whores, they suck very well.
