Nope, not mocking gays. Got relatives that are gay. No problem. My
attitude gay unions has changed big time.

However, I still think that TV is pushing gaydom down the throats of
viewers. Remember, only about 3% of the population is GLBT.

...sad about The Supreme's ruling to let gay marriages in five states stand.

William J. Howell, the Republican speaker of the Virginia House of
Delegates, said in a statement that he was disappointed by the court’s
ruling, and he criticized Mark Herring, the state’s Democratic attorney
general, for refusing to defend the state’s ban on marriage, adopted in a
constitutional amendment in 2006.

“I am a strong supporter of traditional marriage. There are many
Virginians who agree with me and some who do not,” Mr. Howell said.
“Regardless of how one feels about marriage, we should all agree that
Virginians deserve to have their voices heard and votes vigorously
defended in court. That did not happen in this case.”

Mr. Herring waved aside the criticism during an impromptu news conference
on the steps of the Arlington courthouse. Flanked by gay members of the
Arlington county board and the State Legislature, Mr. Herring hailed the court’s ruling.

In an interview after the news conference, Mr. Herring said Virginia had
long been on what he considered to be the wrong side of history, citing
the civil rights cases of Brown vs. Board of Education and the 1996 case
that struck down the male-only admissions policy at the Virginia Military Institute.

“I was determined to make sure that the injustices of Virginia’s position
in those past cases were not repeated again,” Mr. Herring said.


(Indeed, Virginia has a long and sordid history of denying civil rights
to its citizens. Herring did not mention Loving v. Virginia, 388 U.S. 1
(1967), was a landmark civil rights decision of the United States Supreme
Court which invalidated laws prohibiting interracial marriage.

From Wiki:

The case was brought by Mildred Loving, a black woman, and Richard
Loving, a white man, who had been sentenced to a year in prison in
Virginia for marrying each other. Their marriage violated the Virginia's
anti-miscegenation statute, the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which
prohibited marriage between people classified as "white" and people
classified as "colored". The Supreme Court's unanimous decision held this
prohibition was unconstitutional, overturning Pace v. Alabama (1883) and
ending all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States.

The decision was followed by an increase in interracial marriages in the
U.S., and is remembered annually on Loving Day, June 12. It has been the
subject of two movies as well as songs. Beginning in 2013, it was cited
as precedent in U.S. federal court decisions holding restrictions on
same-sex marriage in the United States unconstitutional.

Have a nice day, Speaker Howell.)



I think the AG is totally wrong. Should be recalled or fired. Wither you
are for or against same sex marriage, the AG's job is to represent the
peoples wishes. Would be like you hired an attorney in a tort case, and
they decided you should not win, and did everything to cause you to lose.
Same thing happened in California. AG decide not to defend a law passed by
a majority of the people. Supremes could still rule the same way, but the
people of the state deserve decent representation.

The AG's position on this issue was well-known before the recent

zealot, lost the election, along with the other Republican right-wing
zealots. I think the same sort of "sweep defeat" is looming for the GOP
statewide candidates in Kansas...perhaps the public is just tiring of
state governments run by right-wing, overly religious zealots.
