&lt;i&gt;As could I.. But there has been ONE constant....

A man and a woman.. &lt;/i&gt;

Incorrect. 

&lt;i&gt;Now, a woman can marry a banana and Democrats want to call that &quot;marriage&quot;... &lt;/i&gt;

Hysterically ignorant straw man fallacy. 

&lt;i&gt;Leave it to Democrats to destroy and denigrate ANOTHER long standing institution.. :eyeroll: &lt;/i&gt;

Also laughably incorrect.

&lt;i&gt;The problem is, it&#039;s DEMOCRAT changes that are being imposed.. &lt;/i&gt;

Oh, I&#039;ve got really bad news for you: The origins of not everything are under the control of Democrats or even the United States.

		<description>i could go on and on about the history of marriage. until the mid twentieth century it was common practice (not to mention fully legal) to marry one&#039;s first cousin. there are all sorts of norms and rules that have changed over time, which in this day and age would be considered horrific. wedding someone of a different skin color wasn&#039;t just frowned upon, it was strictly illegal. either we accept that norms change with the times, or we embrace all the awfulness in the history of marriage, of which there is plenty.</description>

&lt;i&gt;You see the problem??&lt;/i&gt;

I definitely see the problem. You seem to have this ridiculous habit of assuming that every legal definition that doesn&#039;t meet with your political or ideological approval is due solely to Democrats, and that&#039;s laughably and hysterically incorrect. 

&lt;i&gt;Roe v. Wade&lt;/i&gt; was decided by a majority of Republicans. Henry Menasco Wade, you see, was a Democrat, and speaking from personal experience regarding Mr. Wade a.k.a. &quot;the Chief&quot;... oh, nevermind, I&#039;ll just keep that nugget to myself. 

As for &lt;i&gt;Obergefell v. Hodges&lt;/i&gt;, it was Justice Anthony Kennedy (R) who authored the majority opinion holding that state bans of marriage of a male to another male and a female to another female are a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment, specifically the clauses of Due Process and Equal Protection. Kennedy was joined by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan. So then, not all Democrats.

Sorry to burst your uninformed bubble, but facts can be such pesky little things.</description>

		<description>Jesse Benton (Rant Paul&#039;s nephew-in-law) was pardoned by Fat Donny in 2020 for some crimes he committed. Today, he was found guilty of facilitating an illegal foreign campaign donation.  

&quot;The evidence at trial showed Benton bought a $25,000 ticket to a September 2016 Republican National Committee (RNC) event on behalf of Roman Vasilenko, a Russian naval officer turned multilevel marketer.&quot;

&lt;a&gt;&lt;b&gt;No collusion!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description>

&lt;i&gt;Death Cult in Disorder &lt;/i&gt;

Yes, sir, and they seem to be in a perpetual state of denial too. 

The repetitive ignorance to deny that something that definitely existed was never in existence is about as dirt-level dumb as it gets... but wait, there&#039;s more... and it&#039;s so bottom-dwelling stupid that it requires a shovel and some furious digging. 

Trump too shall pass, and the death cult righties will deny he ever existed. &quot;He was a Democrat, not one of us,&quot; they&#039;ll say, but make no mistake: Trump effing owns every ignorant one of them; they&#039;re just too daft to know it.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;marriage: the state of being united as spouses in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law. (merriam-webster.com)&lt;/I&gt;

And the date of that particular definition??   :D  

24 Mar 2009...  

Funny how that is, eh??  :D  Right at the height of Democrat hysterical activism...   :D

Here is ANOTHER definition of marriage..

&lt;B&gt;the legally or formally recognized union of two people as partners in a personal relationship (historically and in some jurisdictions specifically a union between a man and a woman).&lt;/B&gt;
-OXFORD

&lt;B&gt;a legally and socially sanctioned union, usually between a man and a woman, that is regulated by laws, rules, customs, beliefs, and attitudes that prescribe the rights and duties of the partners and accords status to their offspring (if any)&lt;/B&gt;
-BRITANNICA


You see the problem??  

You are simply proving my point for me..

When a definition doesn&#039;t work with Democrat ideology, Democrats change the definition..

In the case of &#039;marriage&#039;, 24 Mar 2009...

  See also GENDER...

It&#039;s like when real science doesn&#039;t work with Democrat ideology..  Democrats create Democrat &quot;science&quot;..  

See GLOBAL WARMING, GENDER DYSPHORIA, etc etc etc..

It&#039;s ideologically driven &quot;truth&quot;..  NOT fact..

&lt;I&gt;i.e. marriage is whatever the law says it is.&lt;/I&gt;

EXCEPT if Democrats don&#039;t like what the law says...  :^/

		<description>marriage: the state of being united as spouses in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law. (merriam-webster.com)

i.e. marriage is whatever the law says it is. a hundred thirty-two years ago was the first time polygamy was nationally outlawed as a legal condition for marriage. until 1996, the nation&#039;s laws had no position about the sex or gender of the married people, so it was up to the individual states.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Even so, only 12 of the 50 Republican senators could bring themselves to vote for the bill. Three-quarters of them voted against it, in other words. But don&#039;t look for many of them to make it a big campaign issue any time soon, because even the Republicans who are still against gay marriage have learned it&#039;s not politically wise to boast about that position anymore. &lt;/i&gt;

Oh, I disagree. In fact, based on history, I expect we&#039;ll find that quite a number of them will run even further to the right and attempt to primary incumbent Republicans on this issue as well as others. 

Turns out, they are slow to recognize that multiple of their Christian nationalist positions are now serving as huge turn-offs to entire generations of voters, but will it really deter them? Oh, hell no... because bigotry is a huge selling point with their base and always has been. Coming soon to a primary near you, incumbent &quot;Republicans&quot; will face primary challenges by Christian nationalists because: Since when have we not known the right-wing extremists to double down?

Witness Trump&#039;s full embrace of the right-wingnut Q-Anon crazies because he&#039;s literally got nowhere else to go, and there literally &lt;b&gt;is no bottom&lt;/b&gt;. 

&lt;b&gt;So, to recap: &lt;/b&gt; You&#039;re the GOP and you&#039;ve allowed yourself to become dependent on liars, deniers, conspiracy theorists, zealots, and extremists with multiple political views out of America&#039;s mainstream so what do you do? You double down full steam ahead because you&#039;ve literally got nowhere else to go. Eventually, the Trumptanic will hit the proverbial wall, list, break in half, and sink under its own weight.</description>

<p><b>So, to recap: </b> You're the GOP and you've allowed yourself to become dependent on liars, deniers, conspiracy theorists, zealots, and extremists with multiple political views out of America's mainstream so what do you do? You double down full steam ahead because you've literally got nowhere else to go. Eventually, the Trumptanic will hit the proverbial wall, list, break in half, and sink under its own weight.</p>

		<description>MC,

&lt;I&gt;Pretty pitiful for Michale, that he has to pretend that words don&#039;t mean what they mean.&lt;/I&gt;

You mean, like what &#039;marriage&#039; actually means.. 

Until Democrats&#039; political agenda demanded EVERYONE to pretend marriage means something it doesn&#039;t..

You mean, like that??

:eyeroll:

I really don&#039;t have a problem with gay marriage.. None at all..

But here again is ANOTHER perfect example of Democrats demanding that society accepts THEIR ideologically based beliefs..

The fact that Democrats, as a Party, are so insecure in their beliefs that they must demand that society accepts and constantly re-enforces Democrats and their beliefs would seem to indicate that their beliefs are not morally or ethically acceptable..

Given the Democrat Party&#039;s on-going acceptance of blatant systemic/institutionalized racism and systemic/institutionalized bigotry...  

It&#039;s obvious that Democrats&#039; insecurities are well founded and based in reality...

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Still, while there&#039;s always a &quot;what could have been,&quot; moving forward on codifying basic rights is the right thing to do. Democrats had 50 years in which they could have passed the protections in Roe v. Wade into federal law, and they didn&#039;t. The message of the Dobbs decision is that we cannot rely on the federal courts to protect our rights.&lt;/I&gt;

Not factually accurate, since there never existed a federal right to killing one&#039;s unborn baby..

JFC,

&lt;I&gt;Pretty pitiful for Michale, that he has to pretend that words don&#039;t mean what they mean.&lt;/I&gt;

Says the guy who supports the Party that actually tries to CHANGE the definitions of words to fit their political agenda..

Ready to bail on Trump yet, Michale? Will you even remember your Dear Leader? That you equated hating Trump with hating America -- Seig Heil! Do you even remotely give a fuck that all that pre-election trash talk makes you look like, less than prophetic?
Why shouldn&#039;t I scroll through your uselessness? I dont get what it is that you offer here: OR, is this what you consider OWNING THE LIBS? If so, do you get a little micro-boner when you OWN THE LIBS?</description>

		<description>Yo, of course it&#039;s nothing MORE OR LESS than marriage equality.  Thing of it is, marriage is NOT RELIGIOUS but rather a BUSINESS ARRANGEMENT whereupon two social security numbers agree to become as one. That&#039;s why a couple doesn&#039;t need a church,  hello.</description>

I think that&#039;s part of the point. The issue used to be framed differently, and part of winning the cultural battle was winning the battle over which language is used to name it.</description>

		<description>CW,

I am grateful for your support on this topic, but please try to use &quot;marriage equality&quot; and not &quot;gay marriage&quot; when discussing the subject.  A big part of the fight has been to get people to recognize that there is no such thing as &quot;str8 marriage&quot; or &quot;gay marriage&quot;... there is only &quot;marriage&quot;!
