This thread simply proves a point I have made for years, that the Democratic party has been hijacked by extreme left-wing liberals hell bent on force-feeding their losing agenda to the majority of the populace.
...As opposed to extreme right-wing conservatives hellbent on force-feeding their version of morality on society and enforcing it as law? It's interesting that in a nation that was founded at least partially in the hope of forming a shining example to all of liberty and freedom from tyranny, we still feel the need to create laws restricting basic rights on the basis of religion. No, I'm not talking about abortion. I can understand why people feel that it is wrong, even if I don't agree. But how, in a country that prides itself on its freedoms and its equality, can we honestly be considering an amendment to ban gay marriage? What greater good does this idea serve for society? Does it prevent people from being harmed or wronged, as should be the general purpose of laws in a free society, or does it just harm and wrong people?
(I fear that this may be near to straying off-topic, so let me just add - if you want to debate the morality of homosexuality, there are other threads for that and here it could potentially cause an off-topic spiral, so please just reference one and reply there if you feel it necessary; if you wish to respond in reference to enforcing morality in legislation, I would expect that that fits perfectly well into this thread).

I am not sure what pleases me more, the fact that Herman Munster lost the election or the reaction I have seen in here by those who supported that left-wing liberal moron.
...Speaking of shining examples for us all... I think this quote pretty much speaks for itself, when the one on the "moral high ground" might take greater pride in the anguish of his "enemy" than the elation of his friend.
