It isn't right if there is a problem in 'estates and trusts.' To demand gay marriage as a solution is like the Muslims to protest the inference that they aren't logical as a religion of peace by killing a poor nun. To paraphrase an old slogan, a war is being given, and I'd rather not show up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7321349.post-1162062587958408222006-10-28T12:09:00.000-07:002006-10-28T12:09:00.000-07:00I can understand that Michael.

They are Americans, & they deserve equal rights. I'm not necessarily saying they should be able to marry; a lot of people feel very strongly that marriage is a sacred institution & I doubt that sentiment will ever leave. However, I believe almost every homosexual in America would be happy w/ a civil union & equal rights. It's sad that law-abiding Americans should be treated as inferior citizens due to something which could very well be genetic (science is still out on this. I personally believe most gays are born gay, but I respect other's skepticism). <BR/>I'm a law student going through Trusts & Estates right now, & some of the cases I've read re: a gay's disposition of his property (through a will, mind you) & the total disregard of the decedent's wishes re: his propery by the Court...suffice it to say, it's just not right. I'd be happy to e-mail examples, just contact meAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7321349.post-1162019328386529912006-10-28T00:08:00.000-07:002006-10-28T00:08:00.000-07:00Because that was obviously an orchastrated effort ...Because that was obviously an orchastrated effort by the Democratic party and applauded by all liberals. It wasn't like it was one rogue blogger who has no ties to the party and insignificant support inside liberalism as a whole.<BR/><BR/>Because if it was, it would really be dumb to extrapolate a few independent bloggers to represent the whole party, and compare those few peoples' indiscretions with an entire party's policy positions on gay rights and wiretapping.<BR/><BR/>Really, really dumb.David Schraubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946653376744012423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7321349.post-1162015856166683902006-10-27T23:10:00.000-07:002006-10-27T23:10:00.000-07:00Hypocrisy gets on my nerves too.

Then the election season comes and any Republican who has had a 'homosexual thought' is revealed and they and the party are castigated for it.
