Because it's not an issue of rights, you idiotic, Orange bastard. When marriage is recognized by the government, it is recognized as a tool to preserve and expand the nation by creating more citizens. That's why governments attach all sorts of bonuses to marriage (tax breaks, hospital privileges, etc.). This is seen in the West going back to the fricking "Athenian Empire." Most of the homosexuals didn't even want marriage until the '70s when their groups were infiltrated by Soviet agents who thought that they could destroy the West by destroying marriage.
 What????
Marriage does not have a predetermined condition of being able to produce children buddy. Plenty of couples get married who arent biologically able to reproduce.

Why though?
Because of the evangelical lobby. A lot of politicians, especially those in the South, owe their seats to these guys.

You mean those evangelicals who say "stay out of our lives govt, only God judges, practice your own beliefs in your own way, etc"?
If conservatives (which I am) would think the whole gay marriage issue all the way through, they would realize that gay marriage is consistent with conservative values.

No thats not correct. Minorities have rights too. Its the responsibility of the majority to give equal rights to the minority.
I say legalize it and move on. Government should not be so involved with peoples liberties.
Mickey is right. We are a republic not a democracy. The two wolves and a sheep thing.

I have mentioned this to you in the past, and without any "communists" in sight, several of the gay acquaintances and friends I had were against it. My best friend's older brother put it as "I wish those queens would shut the frick up." It was not an uncommon position in my conversations with those I knew.

Is the US next?
Hopefully not. The federal government needs to completely disassociate itself from marriage; it's none of their business. And France and England are hardly a model for how our government affairs should be managed.

This is just another slap in the face to our Congress who cannot seem to ever do anything productive. These measures in France and England are happening through the national legislatures but here in America we always have to wait for the Supreme Court to handle it.
If you don't like our system of government then move to France or England.

It's not "gay marriage". It's "same sex"marriage.
There is a difference between the two.
