Excepting of course that the guys whose role it is to interpret the Constitution did so this summer and by a 5-4 vote found it unconstitutional that gay marriage was not allowed in several places. I once thought Huckabee was a Candidate that could be someone Democrats could support and vote for. Glad I was wrong. He and Cruz have no chance at being nominated let alone win a general election.

So Kim Davis didn't want marriage licenses going out with her name on them. The county found a way to accommodate that.
So it's a win-win, right? She got just what she wanted. And the county is no longer unconstitutionally restricting marriage. This all goes away now, right? |

Secretary Fanning was confirmed as the undersecretary of the Air Force and the Army in the past so I would assume he will be confirmed once again.

But then gay marriage wasn't allowed and it was for undersecretary not secretary. Given how the republican candidates for President have all come out against gay marriage and many of them are senators/representatives, don't you think some of them will try to block it because he's gay? |

I would never put it past politicians to oppose someone for the sake of opposition. I just think that he is too much of an insider and a known commodity to not be confirmed. I fully expect a bit of grandstanding during his confirmation hearings.

Let's hope now that marriage is legal, this loophole can be closed and couples who went through this can get married. Of course, this being the US legal system, they will probably lose on appeal.

My point being is this type of thing will continue to come up. Like with anything there are unforeseen things that pop up. Who thought that there would have to be rulings on getting adoptions annulled? And then what consequences arise out of that. There are bound to be more unforeseen things that pop up. Some of which no one will see coming.

What exactly are the far-reaching consequences of getting fake adoptions annulled? Will cows want to marry pigs while adopting a horse??

Man, this is truly a hate filled thread. Those of you that are championing equal rights sure are fast to attack anyone who you feel has an opposing view. Yeah, you guys are truly progressive and enlightened individuals. Keep up the good fight.

In all seriousness, it's hard to have an intelligent debate about future concerns or fears which may never come to fruition. There's a chance I could get hit by a car tomorrow, so I should just stay home and not drive to work. Changes always creates unintended circumstances, some good and some bad. You can't use that as an excuse not to change.
Now, I'm going to get out of here before JonIMGA drops an anvil on my head. |

How is this even an issue any more? Law abiding individuals who are consenting adults should have the right to marry. There are no laws being broken by their union.
There is only thing that bugs me and that is the SCOTUS taking away state rights. Sadly there are enough backwards neanderthals that would prevent this from being legal in their states so this will have to work for now. Life is not as hard as many make it. Keep your religion to yourself, don't use it to run a country. |

More importantly, no one's rights are being infringed by two guys or two girls marrying. They're two consenting adults entering into a contract. If you don't want it in your house, great. But don't try to tell the rest of us how to live.
