....to the many haters he


On Sunday, the United States 10th Circuit Court of Appeals denied Utah
officials' emergency request to stop same-sex couples from marrying.

The state had filed an emergency motion for temporary stay on Friday,
following a Thursday federal court ruling that overturned the state's
ban on gay marriage. In the ruling, U.S. District Judge Robert J. Shelby
said the state's constitution failed to show that same-sex marriages
would impede opposite-sex marriages in any way.

"In the absence of such evidence, the State's unsupported fears and
speculations are insufficient to justify the State's refusal to dignify
the family relationships of its gay and lesbian citizens," Shelby wrote.

Immediately following the ruling, same-sex couples fled to the county
clerk's office to receive marriage licenses. But Utah Gov. Gary Herbert
(R) denounced the decision, threatening to take action to appeal it.

"I am very disappointed an activist federal judge is attempting to
override the will of the people of Utah," Herbert said of the Thursday
ruling. "I am working with my legal counsel and the acting attorney
general to determine the best course to defend traditional marriage
within the borders of Utah."

The 10th Circuit Appeals Court denied the governor's emergency request
"without prejudice."

"Because the motion before us does not meet the requirements of the
Federal or local appellate rules governing a request for a stay, we deny
the motion," the court held.

I can see it now...thousands of married heterosexual couples in Utah
dumping their spouses so they can marry their same-sex boyfriends or
girlfriends. Gays ringing the doorbells in Salt Lake City and breaking
up heterosexual marriages.

Funny. You seem to be the only one displaying symptoms thereof.
Apoplexy, that is.

I cannot understand why anyone would deny 'marriage' requests from any two beings. The Glibitz have
every right to pretend their ceremony is a 'marriage', and receive all the advantages under the law
that to which they're entitles.

If the chosen partner is a goat, the goat should be deductible.

Amen.

Why limit it to two? Are you discriminating against the "B"s?

Because one person should not be able to deduct more than one spouse on her income tax return. But,
I understand your point. A 'B' should be able to deduct at least one of each gender. But, should
there be a limit placed on the 'Z's'. What if ....you know....goats, sheep, cows, orangutans..???

Hey, for the Glibitz, it's not a choice, right?

You seem to have taken a serious interest in this "goat" thing... Is
there something you are not telling us?

Hey! I was raised on a farm, you know.

I think if there's going to be an acronym for those with sexual preferences other than heterosexual,
then there should be room for all. That includes zoophiles.

So, Glibitz it is. (GLBTZ)

You can deduct all of your dependents now, gay straight or whatever.

True, but there is only one box for 'Spouse'. And how come you keep editing my posts?
