Pawlenty bows to pressure, will sign NOM’s marriage pledge

What a wimp. Not that it matters, his campaign is dead in the water.

Once again Timmy does what he thinks people want him to do. At least the people who might just give him a vote. Timmy is a robot – no mind, no critical thinking abilities, just goes through the motions.

Tim who?

Bigot for hire

I’m sick of all the religion being shoved down America’s throat. All the Same-Sex opposition is strictly due to religion. Our founding father’s believed in separation of Church and State and today’s religious wing-nuts don’t seem to understand that. If you’re against gay marriage so much, then don’t get one.

Im not religious and Im not for gay marriage. so your theory stinks. Oh yeah…thats right im a bigot….lol

You guys realize that Bigot means this “A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from their own or intolerant of people of different political views, ethnicity, race, class, religion, sexuality or gender” SO that means that all the Gays are Bigots too because they are intolerant of any opinions of people with DIFFERENT POLITICAL VIEWS. Everyone is a bigot in their own little way.

OK, Biff, you’re a homophobe! That feels better…

I think bends over and smiles is probably more descriptive of Pawlent’y latest promise than ‘bows to pressure.’

Your a Homophobaphobe. Hahahahah

So, Biff – what is the basis of your opposition to gay marriage? How does it affect anything relating to you?

“thats right im a bigot”

Bingo

Pawlenty (R-Phony) bows to pressure, will sign NOM’s marriage pledge…

Tim Pawlenty will become the fourth Republican presidential candidate to sign a pledge by the National Organization for Marriage to oppose the legalization of same-sex marriage. Pawlenty had initially declined to sign the pledge, but NOM launched a pre…

If individuals and companies are held accountable to the harm and damage their words and actions cause Gay Americans why aren’t churches and their leaders? This exemption to allow those responsible for promoting this continued persecution and discrimination is wrong and needs to be changed. Their demonization of a group of citizens leads to more violence and suicides. It should be illegal. This climate of intolerance that makes our daily lives less safe, less free and a constant target of harm should be address and stopped. The free pass given to some religions and members to be excluded from being held accountable is unfair and asinine.

You can beleive in whatever you want….but just cause you beleive it…doesn’t mean it has to interfere in the lives of OTHER Tax paying citizens who are just seeking the SAME rights you have…..amd also, leave marty McFly alone!

Well, that gives him a place in history — right next to the judges who wrote the majority opinion in the Dred Scott decision (that runaway slaves, even if they made it to the free North, must be returned to their Southern captivity). Sort of the Hall Of Shame, you know? Future generations will see Pawlenty’s choice as even uglier than we think it now.

“You can beleive in whatever you want….but just cause you beleive it…doesn’t mean it has to interfere in the lives of OTHER Tax paying citizens who are just seeking the SAME rights you have…..amd also, leave marty McFly alone!”

Exactly. Just because YOU believe in gay marriage doesnt mean it has to interfere with OTHER tax paying citizens. Let the people vote for it? OH you DONT want people to vote on it because you KNOW it will FAIL. If Mcfly didnt act homo then I would stop

Once again Pawlenty has shown he has no inner compass. He is a loser who will never further his political career.

Resistance is to be expected on the issue. We as a self-serving species are simply doing what other living things on this planet try to do… populate and keep our species going. The idea of homosexuality to some is sort of horrific in that scope.

The conservative right wing is slowly but surely loosing the argument about how they think the country should conform to their religious views on marriage. Eventually, those that are of the Christian faith will become a minority as well. More and more people are waking up to all the fairytales, myths and legends of the Christian delusion and brainwashing. I’m speaking from experience. Science alone has proven, over and over that most of the stories of the Christian Bible are grossly exaggerated and created in a time when a person who lived to be a the ripe old age of 30 or 40 couldn’t contest or closely examine the reality of the outlandish stories. Plus, back then, people were tortured into religion or severely punished if they denounced Christianity. Those days are gone. You’ll find Atheism debunks pretty much most of the outdated religious Christian delusions and makes a person’s mind do some basic critical thinking and step into the light of reality and reason. The gross realization that a person has been brainwashed into a belief system is like when we as kids realized there wasn’t a Santa or an Easter Bunny. There was a sort of cognitive dissonance but we soon accepted this new reality and went on with our human development.

Aside from all of that, the state of New York is projecting revenue of over 300 million in the next three years from same-sex weddings. That is very REAL and beneficial for the state. Sadly, when there are large sums of money involved, things change. Maybe this time though, for the better.

What is hilarious is the notion of ‘Traditional’ marriage. That has changed and evolved over the course of humanity because we as a species evolve over time. The people of NOM are blind to this fact.

Biff,

Marriage has been deemed a civil right by the courts. Therefore the majority shall not vote on the minority when it comes to civil rights.

You are anti constitutional by wanting this vote. My personal rights have been violated to be made to vote as a majority on someone else’s personal civil rights. I should never be made to vote as a straight person on a non straight persons civil right.

It is literally against everything the fore fathers stood fore.

There is separation of church and state.

Take your personal choices of lifestyle and live within it, stop making others live by it by putting that personal agenda of yours into law. That is indoctrination. I do not follow your god stop making me do so.

My marriage is not damaged by a ssm it is strengthened by it!

Teach your children this thought, go to your churches and pray to your God but do NOT make me live your choice of lifestyle for religion is a choice. and your religion is not my choice.

My prediction – in less than twenty years, people like Pawlenty and Bachmann (and Biff) who are preaching against same sex marriage and trying to ban it will be thought of in the same way as slave owners and the KKK are thought of now….just because it doesn’t cause direct physical harm, doesn’t mean it can’t cripple someone’s insides for the rest of their life. It is discriminatory and demoralizing – there is no difference.
