My name is Heather and I STILL have two mommies. They didn't go away on November 5th. They were just stripped of their rights! My moms are very sad now and I want the people that did this to tell me why! Can anyone tell me why?

ok

seems to be more understanding.. more family oriented.
like he understands that kids need two loving parents, and a family support system and it doesn't matter if they are same sex.. as ill informed as most people are in this country about lesbians and gays, its no wonder that mccain is getting the support from back woods, middle aged, closed-minded assholes! lol

:)
thats my two cents for now!

i support gay marriage

Mon, 15 Sep 2008 08:22:38 -0700

y cant ppl just understand that if 2 ppl r happy then n can make a responsable decision to get married then they should. this is a decion they make on there own. if a guy loves another and they want to get married n b together 4 the rest of there lives whats wrong with that. i belive that its not ur place to tell them not to. thats like gay ppl saying that straight ppl shouldent be together n shouldent get married. how would u feel if that was the case. thats y i feel that obama is better because he understands that and i think that all ppl should just sit back get over them selves n stop being judgemental of gay ppl its wat ever k thats who they r. i have a gay uncal that i love more then anythin and i dont think that its fair that they have been together 4 21 yrs n only can get a demestic partnership they deserve the right of marriage. and legaly they r cus by law after living together 4 mor then 3 years u r considered a married couple. i may only be 16 but i have been around to this bs my whole life like everyone els and every year i feel more and more strongly against this and the ppl who thinks its wrong........

Our "inalienable rights" don't depend upon what the masses think

Barack's a wonderful man. A few weeks ago while driving to work I was inspired with this idea about him: He's a trojan horse full of what America needs to heal, to move on to our true beautiful destiny as a very great nation that will help heal the entire planet. Greatness doesn't mean military power or religious affiliation. It refers to our nation's spiritual maturity, and how we express it. It refers to the degree to which we do whatever is necessary to bring about prosperity, true justice for all, and happiness for all beings. If we elect him, we'll be taking the next important step toward our spiritual destiny.

Our Declaration of Independence affirms that all people have "inalienable rights." No presidential decree, act of Congress, or voter referenda can interfere with rights that are "INALIENABLE," which means irremovable. To do so is illegal and monstrous from the start. Look up the meaning of the word "inalienable." Go read the Declaration of Independence. What voters think doesn't matter, because they have no authority to interfere with rights that are sealed and guaranteed. If they don't agree with that, then they should reconsider whether they want American citizenship. Citing poll results to cozy people up to the idea that gays should have rights may be very well-meaning, but they still don't change the fact that all Americans have certain universal, natural born rights, God-given, not society-given.

Thank you so much for your comment! I am a bisexual preschool teacher in my first lesbian relationship (going on 4 years now). I hail from a HIGHLY religious Baptist family, and they refuse to allow my girlfriend (a middle school teacher) into their homes. As far as I am concerned, this goes against every concept of "Christian love" I was taught in my first two decades of life. Just because I am in love with a woman doesn't make me a pedophile, or a "lesbo trainer." I do not even refer to my partner at school as anything but "the lady I live with," simply because I know the parents like me, but may not appreciate me teaching tolerance to their children, and I really need my job. I take care of many children (I babysit for 13 or so families on a regular basis), and every family who drops their kids off at my house are more than comfortable with my parenting skills in their absence. This episode didn't make any sense to me. "I think you guys are great parents, but homosexuals shouldn't be parents." What the heck is that supposed to mean???!?!?

no last name

Funny how she can go on TV and act like such a judgemnetal person, but never have her last name released. Oh, poor baby. Is she afraid the big bad gays will find her and convert her? Maybe she better put in another call to god about this and see what the answer is. Then again, maybe she did and the answer was, "don't release your last name. Stay in the cult."

This is EXCELLENT NEWS...

I am utterly surprised that TiVo, a well-known brand, allowed another organization use their company logo without TiVo's supervision. Brand management and brand equity are marketing 101 concepts. To build equity in one's brand, a company MUST manage where/how/why their brand is being used. The logo is a huge part of the TiVo brand.

I am also surprised that TiVo responded so quickly and favorably. Whew...now, I don't feel guilty about using my TiVo!

Great work...

I too am very upset that FOX Networks would not take the part out of the show, or at the very least get a statement from our side. Also I was somewhat scared that again, the show seems to lean on the woman's side and did not present an equal balance to the issue. I worry that it may put us back a few years after all the struggle we have made to move forward for equal rights for the homosexual community.

Mormon and Ashamed

This was the most disappointing episode yet. I am an active member of the LDS church ( the same church that Kati belongs to) and am completely ashamed of Kati and her ignorant self-righteousness. I would like to believe that the vast majority of members of the LDS Church consider themselves to be Christians, but I see nothing Christian about Kati's attitude and behavior. To cling so closely to one's principles and "moral fiber" and to ignore the experiences and struggles of real, ordinary people who are trying to build a nurturing and supportive family is in complete opposition to the compassion that all Christians should seek to cultivate in their relationships with others. Let us remember that nowhere in the Bible, or any other source that Christians like Katie mention to support their disdain of homosexuality, does it say that one must, in order to be a true Christian, be intolerant of homosexuals or seek to take away their rights. To claim that one's moral convictions gives one the right to seek to limit the rights of other individuals--who want nothing more than to raise happy, healthy children--demonstrates an absence of Christ-like love and understanding and an abundance of the smugness and narcissism that unfortunately characterizes many who consider themselves Christian.
