There is nothing concrete as to how the United States Supreme Court
will rule on DOMA and Prop 8. I am 56 years old; my life partner
and I are both Americans. We are in a loving long term (30 year)
committed relationship. I served in the Marine Corps, pay my taxes,
and a retired Federal employee. And I still can’t get married!!!
Obama has prioritized the immigration issue before gay marriage –
REALLY…REALLY. I guess one could say that you have to pick your
battles, well in my opinion he picked wrong. Obama has chosen
people that are here illegally and breaking the law over his own
American people. Wake up American LBGT people, we got screwed!!!

McCain is using the new GOP doublespeak.
They have learned that you can’t just come out and say something completely bigoted against gays, blacks, Women, etc… anymore.
So what they then do is anytime anything comes up that will help civil rights, is say that is isn’t pressing…or that they just don’t have time to do it now.
Yes, because McCain is SO busy, you know, what with being in Congress for decades and never once pushing through one single piece of important legislation with his name on it. (Campaign Finance doesn’t count because he broke his own rules the second he ran for President) What has he been doing? Well lets see, he was chairman of the comittee that oversaw all commerce in the U.S. and his wife’s budweiser distributership in AZ. mysteriously was the only one in the state. No competition at that time.

@wade:
How exactly did you get screwed? I get that Log Cabin wants to jump Obama every chance they get. But you do realize that if the State Dept. legitimizes gay marriage or partnership as a reason to stay in the country it gives DOMA another blow.
The Supreme Court has often ruled based on how the country is trending. This is one more trend direction that pushes the court.
It isn’t an either/or thing.

McShame should NEVER have been allowed to leave the Hanoi Hilton… dead or alive! He is a worthless piece of dementiated caca.

@Cam: I hope you’re not implying that he has used his position to embezzle tens of millions out of state finances and taken massive kickbacks from his wife’s company?
Because that could be slander, I mean even stating that THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED would possibly get police knocking on your door.
Don’t put your hand up to ask him a question though, he hates that.

I think I’ve reached “peak McCain.” That’s the point where the very image of a person or sound of his/her voice gives rise to deep irritation and disgust. Having reached “peak McCain,” I can only hope that there will soon be a post-peak depression in media coverage of this blow-hard creep.
