State Ballot Questions

It is what I believe in: STATE'S RIGHTS and the MORE LOCAL the BETTER!! I'm not happy about it, as my state has signed off on gay marriage; however, as a wiser man than me once said:

"The issue would revert to the states, where it constitutionally belongs.... anyone expecting perfection in this world is going to be consistently disappointed.... "

There are so may other issues to worry about; why is this making my divisive, Zionist-controlled, agenda-pushing War Daili... oh, never mind.

I just want to know when the gay lobby is going to RESPECT the will of the voters.

When are you guys gonna take NO for an answer?

"States take on social questions; Gay marriage is key ballot measure" by David Crary, Associated Press | November 5, 2008

Voters in Colorado and South Dakota rejected ballot measures yesterday that could have led to sweeping bans on abortion, and Washington became only the second state - after Oregon - to offer terminally ill people the option of physician-assisted suicide.

In California, exit polls suggested a close race on a high-profile measure that would ban gay marriage, the first time such a vote has taken place in a state where such unions are legal. Ballot counting continued into the night. Three other states appeared headed toward enacting measures that would curtail the rights of same-sex couples.

It PASSED!! Time to show some class and ACCEPT the WILL of the people, gayos!

But, for the abortion rights movement, it was a day of relief and celebration.

Hey, I have to accept that one!

California voters approved a measure requiring that calves raised for veal, along with egg-laying hens and pregnant pigs, be confined in ways that allow them freedom of movement. Michigan joined 12 other states in allowing use of marijuana for medical purposes.

How come LIBERAL Massachusetts DOESN'T ALLOW HELP for SICK PEOPLE?

In all, 153 measures were at stake nationwide. The most momentous was the proposed constitutional amendment in California to limit marriage to heterosexual couples. Similar measures had prevailed in 27 states before the elections, but none were in California's situation - with thousands of gay couples already married following a state Supreme Court ruling. The opposing sides together raised about $70 million, much of it from out of state, to wage their campaigns. The outcome could have an impact on prospects for spreading same-sex marriage to the 47 states that do not allow it.

A crucial question in California was how churchgoing black and Hispanic voters would vote. According to exit polls, blacks were far more likely than whites or Hispanics to support the ban. Age also was a key factor. The exit polls suggested that voters under 30 opposed the ban by a 2-to-1 ratio, while most voters 60 and older supported the ban.

Arizona approved a gay marriage ban yesterday, while a similar measure appeared headed for passage in Florida. Gay-rights forces also suffered a loss in Arkansas, where voters approved a measure banning unmarried couples from serving as adoptive or foster parents. Supporters made clear that gays and lesbians were their main target. --more--"

That LAST COMMENT encapsulates the PRO-GAY TILT of this AGENDA-PUSHING PIECE of shit!! Yup, opponents of gay marriage "target" people.

Type "gays" into my blog search for more, folks.
