Do you think that Bush should butt out of gay marriages?

Jesi

I didn't know Bush had vetoed any laws allowing gay marriage. I thought that was being defeated at the state level.

Tommy D

He should be honest and admit that Laura is really Larry!

He is not a very Christian man from what I see.

I think he should butt out of Iraq

El Pistolero Negra

I think government should stay out of marriage altogether. It was ordained and invented by God and belongs strictly to Him.

Government is in it for the money and gays want into it for the SS benefits. If there were no government involvement in taxing and regulating marriage then there would be no problem for anyone getting married.

I might add that separation of church and state is a Biblical principle. Jesus never told the disciples to get involved in politics. He instructed them to steer clear of changing governments.

Repub-lick'n

Bush wanted Conservative right religious voters to support him, so he made a deal out of the gay marriage issue. I don't believe he gives a S*** otherwise.

I am a Republican but I believe that gay marriage should not be illegal. I don't understand how my party can be for smaller government and less government intrusion into the private lives of American citizens and yet try to tell certain citizens they are not allowed to marry whom they want to marry. it's such a contradiction!

Cheney's daughter should have the same rights as American citizens and the Bush illegal immigrants

Wizard's Living Grimoire

Unfortunately some people believe that whatever they dislike should be made into law such as banning gay marriages. Bush needs to get his head out of his rear and let people live their lives.

Bush should butt out of the planet Earth...God knows he's F**KED it up enough!

John

Bush has not been preventing gay marriages.....the majority population in the US has been. Up to 70% + have been voting to ban gay marriages.

Funny how a few liberal judges can tell the majority that they can't think that way.

Bush should butt out period.

fr_chuck

Well not for the reason you beleive, But marriage is a state rights issue and Bush and the Federal Courts both need to butt out. The Fed court was wrong in allowing it in Mass, since it is up to the state to set thier marriage laws.

And of course Bush is against it, because the largest majority of all Americans are against it.

In any state where it has went to vote, it has never passed.

mymadsky

Bush has not prevented anyone from marriage. He has signed no law nor vetoed one on this issue.

i don't care if it's considered a marriage or not. by all means, call it something else besides marriage, but give the community an "equal opportunity" like we in the United States say we do. But why be so hard-headed with a definiation of a word, because that's where this is mostly coming from right? Exactly what marriage is defined as in the dictionary...? How many times have words changed their meaning throughout the decades and Webster's Dictionary has kept with the trends. Why can the definition of marriage not be re-looked at? I think it's because certain people - even though they say they aren't - are extremely homophobic and don't understand what it is like to be that way.

dinodino

No pun intended? ....well then, yes.

scorbore

no he shouldn't, not that i agree with him, but why should he? he is not the government, he is part of it. Gay marriage is legal in some churches and other civilities in America. Why can't he express his view? He just tells us the reason for his view is because of the Bible. Would you prefer if we got rid of some of our rights so that he could not say that?

Lisa

Gay marriage is not marriage, period. Don't judge what "Christian-like" is since God Almightly has already Himself ordained what is Holy (read the Bible). Are you above God, that you can judge what the Infinite Eternal Creator had in mind when He created marriage??

Answerman

I just wish that Bush would but out period.

Girls Just Wanna have Fun

Gee, I had not heard that Bush had "butted in" ( so to speak) to gay marriages. What a scandal! I wonder how Laura can put up with it! Seriously, marriages and private living arrangements between consenting adults are NO BODY'S business, and he darn well knows it. Dubya is just trolling for the maximun amount of votes from the hysterical right wing.

dianee

I agree w/Wizards Liv. What someone is doing 3,000 mi away shouldn't affect George Bush. In fact, it shouldn't affect anyone. No, I'm not gay.

Dave_Stark

The Gay community wants to have their cake, and eat it too. This has nothing to do with President Bush -- it is the will of the American People as demonstrated repeatedly in the electoral process.

First the Gays tell us that the Federal Government should stay out of the bedroom.

Then they demand that the Federal Government be in the bedroom by validating/accepting/legalizing gay marriage.

What marvelous hypocrisy. If you want the government out of your life, then don't demand that they get involved with your life.

BTW -- read the First Amendment to the Constitution sometime. Nowhere in the amendment is there any statement about "a wall of separation", or "freedom FROM religion".

Go to church more often or at least read in your bible. You are supose to witness. Let these people know that being gay is not in god's wishes and they will be punished for it. The church for years has repremanded people for doing wrong. Do you think a good preacher would not tell the people this. To support this is a sin. So letting them as said being happily married and voting for gay marraige is a sin. I would rather them be catholic than be gay. Then at least god is in there life. It outlines in the bible what he expects of people of all sorts including where you and me should be. Lead a child in the way that he shall go and he shall not depart from it. Bush is the president and we are his sheep. If he votes for gay marriage then he will be punished for it. God gave us the right to govern ourselves under him. This country is getting out from under that and this is why we are having so many problems in this country. In the bible it tells me that the man is the head of the house and is my castle. If the children do not learn it is my fault not the mothers. Jobs may be deligated but they are still the mans job. You should understand my point by now. sorry for the preachin'.

Chris J

Yes. Although, I don't think gay marriage should be legal, it is really a state issue, not a federal. We don't need an amendment to ban gay marriages. That's a waste of congress' time and taxpayer money to even have debates on it.

Eric H

Yes he should, because it should be the decision of each state. Marriage has always been primarily a state issue, not a federal one. If Massachusettes or California want to have gay marriage, fine. If Ohio and Texas don't, then that's the peoples' wish.

p_l_gray

Marriages are controlled by the state... not the federal government.

There is no such thing as separation of church and state. That is a misrepresentation of the constitution, the protection simply does not exist.

Based on your comments, you obviously don't believe what he Bible says.

STIFLE IT LIBS

And i want 10 wives.So all you liberals stay the hell out of my business.Queers serve no purpose,and should be euthanized.
