You've never lived in a city before, have you?
And your last statement there is such a joke I'm actually laughing. Electoral votes elect Presidents, and they're given to each state based on the number of representatives each state has in Congress, which is ultimately reflective of the populations of those states. Because more than three-quarters of the U.S. population lives in and around urban areas, states with the largest concentrations of such areas have the most representatives in Congress, receive the most electoral votes, and ultimately greatly influence to whom those electoral votes are given when a state is won, it's actually people voting as they will who elect Presidents.
Long story short, 250 million Americans live in or around urban areas, so saying the "rest of the country is a solid majority of states with majority opposition to gay marriage" is a blatant disregard of the facts. That being said, not all of those people support gay marriage - but then again, you're still wrong, because 52% of the country, when last polled, supports same-sex marriage, so where you're getting this "majority" nonsense is beyond me.
Now we'll wait to see if attempts on his life are made by hardcore homophobes posing as "Martyrs wanting to bring justice".
I said *liberal* urban areas. San Francisco, NYC, Chicago. Not Indianapolis, not Charlotte, not Norfolk, not many of the other places that will actually influence the coming presidential election.Originally Posted by FrozNlite
You're highly opinionated on this, but if you want your way you need to learn what its going to take to get it. Not just chortle insults at people who point out obvious impediments.
Read my post again if you're confused. Or simply disregard my observations and just continue to prostrate yourself on Obama's altar all for his nice, cheap, useless words.

God, this woman.“The President’s announcement today shows how out of touch he is with the values of American families. The President continues to practice the politics of division and diversion. He’s tried to divide the country over gender, education, class, and now he’s attempting to divide families all as a diversion to his failed economic policies that have affected all Americans.
WBBC is mourning.
Bleh.
I don't like the announcement from Obama, but he still has my election vote anyway for other reasons.
Unless someone better than anyone in the Republican and Democratic party shows up.
I actually met him on the 1st of this month when secretly came to Afghanistan (which was later revealed) to talk about the whole security issue. I honestly don't know why people are so threatened by gay marriage. Let them get married, how does this harm us straight folk? Worst part is....My Unit is from Fort Bragg, North Carolina.
According to the protests of certain Abrahamic religions, allowing more people to be married in a manner inconsistent with their religious beliefs somehow diminishes the intrinsic value of what they themselves get out of the institution. Yet divorce doesn't. So apparently gay marriage is adding in two negative values while divorcing is a net-zero. Or something.

I just love the comments on this goddamn thing. I find it especially ironic how african americans are so avid against equal rights.
I asked my dad about this and he said that this doesn't really affect his opinion on him. (He's a homophobic dude)
Someone should put up the rainbow SP logo.
Doesn't actually count unless they were the direct people it was forced apon. Ancestors don't count.
@KhainiWest ; I feel like its human nature to oppress someone else. Something about feeling Superior.
