AFA: Only John McCain can save us from teh gays, fire, brimstone and damnation!
:crazy:



from the American Family Association's website:

Sen. McCain is the one person who should lead the battle to protect traditional marriage!

Sen. McCain needs to lead the way in promoting a federal marriage amendment

As you know, the California Supreme Court has legalized homosexual marriage. This happened despite the fact that voters in California passed Proposition 22 with 61.4 percent of the vote. Proposition 22 defined marriage as only between one man and one woman.

The recent 4-3 ruling, if allowed to stand, would destroy marriage as it has been known for thousands of years. It would lead to the logical conclusion of the following:


* Legalization of polygamous and other aberrant unions as "marriages"
* Legalization of marriage between an adult parent and adult child
* Legalization of group marriage

Overturn all the marriage laws in the other 49 states



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sen. McCain,

I ask that you make passing a federal marriage amendment a top priority in your campaign. The family is the central unit in society. I cannot express to you the importance of this matter.

I will be waiting to see how you respond to this threat to the family.

4. ...lead to the logical conclusion...
These people wouldn't know logical if it jumped out of an alley and beat the crap out of them.

Come to think of it...That's probably what did happen. That's why they're so afraid of logic.

5. In 2004, Bush promised to try to pass a constitutional amendment against gay marriage...
...and then did practically nothing about it in his second term.

The fundamentalists who voted for Bush based on his support of that consitutional amendment didn't even get a sincere effort in exchange for their votes.

6. Dumbya got a second term, they got dumped on.
Isn't that the way it's always been? A real pity too, the damage he's done to the party's credibility and electability.

Finally, the usual comment:

What kind of filthy mind equates the simple validation of a relationship between two consenting adults with pedophilia, incest and bestiality? I can only believe it's, again, projection. The religiously insane are a bunch of kinky MoFos.

9. Well, I'm a 30 year old going on 3...
or at least, that's what women tell me my maturity level is at. I guess the AFA doesn't believe I should be allowed to get married.

10. "I cannot express to you the importance of this matter."
That's because it ranks right down there with aid to urban rats.

14. "The recent 4-3 ruling...would destroy marriage"
No, it would INCREASE marriages.

Math. So simple, and yet so very, very difficult.
