Az gov vetoes bill

[TheOldSchool]

I think Brewer did the right thing.

She gave a reasonable rationale for her decision...the law was superfluous and bigger issues are at hand....

Aka she desperately attempted to save face for her state

 

[TemplarKormac]

Geez, you know it just hit me... all that arguing I did was pointless. I've come to the conclusion that there are bigger issues that gay marriage out there. Why are we so easily distracted by social issues? Same goes for legalizing pot. While I want that legalized, there are simply more serious issues on the table than these. Seriously folks, lets get our priorities straight here.

You Stud Puffin!

lol this bro is a sore loser

Uh no. I'm sore, from watch people be so easily distracted by issues that don't shape the future of this country. It's what we call an epiphany. I'm beginning to see why liberals distract with social issues so much, they don't want you to notice the REAL issues they have.

Is that why you started a few threads on gays and gay marriage a few days ago?

The old fool didn't see the statement.

Of course Gov. Brewer vetoed the bill and refused to protect the people’s fundamental right to be free to mutually agree in their contracts and associations.

Let us not forget this is the same Governor that signed onto Obamacare and agreed to expand Medicaid and put an additional 300,000 residents on government’s free cheese wagon which hard working taxpayers are having their paycheck confiscated to fund.

What she ignored today was upholding the Constitution and a fundamental right of people being free to mutually agree in their contracts and associations.

A legislative act which "impinges upon a fundamental right explicitly or implicitly secured by the Constitution is presumptively unconstitutional." See: Harris v. McRae United States Supreme Court (1980) Also see City of Mobile v. Bolden, 466 U.S. 55, 76, 100 S.Ct. 1490, 64 L.Ed.2d 47 (1980)

That was a few days ago. Then it hit me. This issue is superfluous. You have millions of people losing their healthcare, people not looking for work, you have serious shit going on in the Ukraine and Venezuela, and we're over here more worried about gay marriage? What was I thinking!? What are we thinking?!

Now will you stfu?

I'll "stfu" when Brewer brings the three Americans she killed back from the dead.

Till then?

Blah blah fucking blah.

Is it the same as TK's post #26? Is that what all republicans will be parroting tomorrow?

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Geez, you know it just hit me... all that arguing I did was pointless.

That’s because your arguments are devoid of merit.

And government seeking to deny gay Americans – or any American, for that matter – their civil liberties will always be a ‘big issue.’

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Now will you stfu?

That would depend on whether you and others on the right continue to seek to deny gay Americans their civil liberties.

It’s all up to you.

The divorce rate, gays and the economy are having a profound impact on US birth rates.

Shrinking tax payer base

-Geaux

3.4% of the population is having a profound impact on US birth rates?

 

[NYcarbineer]

So it's official. 99.9% of the rightwingers on USMB are dumber than Jan Brewer.

This Jan Brewer:

No. Even someone like me knows when his efforts have been wasted on small things. Overall, I support equal rights for homosexuals, simply because of what the Constitution says. What I have an issue with is when the Constitution is used to give rights to one group at the expense of another.

Wow, the GOP realized what a PR nightmare this would've been.

Yea, the left's insistence that religious freedom be denied reached a fever pitch and Brewer caved.

Will this trampling of religious freedom apply to all religions?

Alas, now I know what John Stuart Mill meant by the "tyranny of the minority"...

Huh? People aren't allowed to talk to Jesus anymore????

Homophobes fail massively.

They are so out of touch with America and our culture.

Where does the 1st amendment right of religious freedom give YOU the right to deny civil rights to people your religion doesn't like?

Good job by Gov Boneyfinger....I knew she could do it
