Exactly, Phyllis. The word "marriage" is often used to describe two (or more) businesses merging.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

And if these Christians were really concerned about changes, shouldn't services still be in Latin and shouldn't there be no Protestantism?

The primary definition of married is "being in the state of matrimony". The second definition is "united, joined."

The definition of matrimony specifically references the union of a man and a woman.

But, the dictionary I have is old, and perhaps these definitions have been updated.

And PRS - if they really wanted to be traditional, they would still be Jewish.

"Or everyone who opposes marriage equality can just go f*ck themselves. That's probably simplest."

"I'm with Reg. Will you "civil union" me, Reg?"

Make it a threesome? After all, the "Woman of Concern" (or whatever they call themselves) claimed that Walker opened the door to polygamous marriages.

YWIW, I understand. I was just giving you my take on it.

And, despite having said what I said, if there was no DOMA and I could enter into a civil union and have the government recognize it (that's the key in my circumstances), I would do it in a heartbeat.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

Shames, no worries.

I am more curious because I am more of an observer in all of this. It is ironic that I could got to Vegas, get drunk, and marry and schmo, but friends who have been in long-term, committed relationships cannot marry the person the love. That is just wrong to me on a basic, fundamental level.

I also have a big thing for separation of church and state, and think there should be a distinction between civil ceremonies and laws that grant couples rights as part of a union recognized by the state (as in federal and state benefits/rights ...) and religious ceremonies that are a religious blessing the unions.

But, since I am not the one facing the discrimination, I was just trying to determine the reaction to the scenario.

It's weird that CountA, liberal democrat, Hillary Clinton voter and disillusioned Obama fan is so dead set against gay marriage.

Maybe because he's not really a Democrat.

I am all for Prop 8 being overturned. So, you are confused. VERY confused.

I simply can not agree with all of your efforts to slant the facts and to ignore the truth on both sides.

Bless your heart. You think you are so open minded, but you don't know the first thing about listening, respecting, and honoring everyone's free speech rights.

You say they are choosing to "ignore the truth on both sides", almost every link you post is skewed towards one side. So if you could, drop the whole "disappointed democrat" thing, stop believing everything Fox News tells you, and stop being so condescending, please.

I LOVE Cenk's take on this.Pretty much a breakdown of the Ted Olson video that has been posted. I think Chris Wallace thought Ted was gonna give in and agree with him. Typical. Fox bullying for the answers THEY WANT!

This is lovely. Herbert Hoover's great-great granddaughter warns Republicans not to be on the wrong side of history when it comes to gay marriage...on foxnews.com!

PROP 8 OVERTURNED

It's her 2nd piece for Fox News on the subject.

Well-heeled conservatives like Margaret Hoover are going to make it "distasteful" and "unseemly" for Republicans to oppose gay marriage.

I love her dispassionate reasoning. I wish more non-religious-right conservatives would take that approach. I almost wish she had avoided that 'right side of history' closing. There are better reasons to support this cause.

Thanks to madbrain, romantico, PJ, and Phyllis for the links, and to YWIW for the information.

An aside to Reg: if we register at Bed, Bath and Beyond, we'll have three times as many towels. Also, we need a flyswatter. There's been a buzzing sound around here lately. It almost sounds like it's saying "I'm a dissolving demonstrator" or "I'm a disgusted demolition". Maybe "An authoritative autocrat" I'm not sure - weird sounds that don't make sense. Anyway, strange sounds like a fly banging itself to death against a window.

That is all.

I wonder if those stores that do bridal registries are changing their software to be ready for same-sex weddings?
