MAGGIE Blog Comments Reflect her Absurdity and Congress’s Complicity

6-19-20 MELANIE NATHAN

Well anyway making it onto lezgetreal. Sometimes we read a comment to a BLOG and it makes so much sense that it supersedes the BLOG itself – in relevance in chuckle and most of all in its ability to highlight absurdity. Behold this fun one — but of course I am compelled to quote the entire BLOG piece to which it ascribes (Pardon my audacity and hopefully I wont throw up – especially on this beautiful white satin sheet in my luxury Club Med Ixtapa Suite)

Now you might ask why is Melanie regurgitating this crap? Bringing this meaningless crap to our attentions. The answer is – I have been writing about the importance of leadership from Congress truly because neither they nor the LGBT community can afford to rely solely on those perceived leaders and non profits who claim domain and think they are the messiah of our rights! Those who self serve to the point of failure.

We have elected officials – it is our representatives who should lead the way and we should not have to lobby nor strategize for them. Its their job to make equality happen.

So for those who read this herein below and for one second thinks its remotely okay to have 40% of our Country believe this crap -0 then go back to sleep. But for thos of you who agree with the 60% who think thisd type of thinking is reprehensible, dangerous, unjust and plain wrong – then wake up and work for our freedom from this false and tainted image about our community, for as long as you do not, you are complicit in this thought process. CONGRESS its your JOB to rectify this. If you fear losing your job and practise political expediency above what is right, then you are a FAILURE in any event.

The Core Civil Right to Vote for Marriage

BY Maggie Chutzpah Gallagher

(National organization of Marriage)

“From my syndicated column this week: This week, the Proposition 8 trial draws to a close.

This is the trial that never should have been, by a judge who has systematically telegraphed his sympathy for one side.

The lawyer for the plaintiffs is Ted Olson, once a GOP advocate for judicial restraint. Yet this week, he will be pleading with the judge to nullify the votes of 7 million Californians — and, by extension, the votes of millions of Americans in other states who have exercised their right to vote for marriage as the union of husband and wife.

Perry v. Schwarzenegger is not a case about California law. This is the case that will decide the future of marriage for the entire country.

I am flying to San Francisco to be there at this historic moment, to live blog the event for the National Organization for Marriage. The last time I was in the Bay Area a few months ago I was sitting in an upscale bar in Oakland talking to a friend. A young woman, pretty, well-dressed, educated, walked over to my table and proceeded to yell at me. “You should be ashamed of yourself!” she said. I looked her in the eye and told her simply I was very proud of the work that I did, although I understood she disagreed. That made her even madder. “You should go South,” she sputtered. “Go South, this is San Francisco!”

Actually it was Oakland, but I took her point. It was an illuminating moment. Here was an educated young woman who believed she had a right to purify an entire American city of those who disagreed with her about gay marriage. She behaved in a way that I would describe as uncivilized, but she saw herself as a great champion of civility, of tolerance, and of civil rights.

Ted Olson will talk in court this week like a civilized man. But Ted Olson, as much as any one man, is responsible for the idea that there is no real debate to be had about gay marriage, that all the legitimacy, all the arguments, all the good will and good reasons are on his side. He will be asking this judge to disrespect the views of his fellow Americans, to brand them ignorant, irrational and bigoted, and to take away our right to vote for marriage. And he will be bathed in applause for doing so.

    “Those darn liberals! They’ve taken away our civil right to vote on whether blacks can vote. They’ve taken away our civil right to vote on whether women can own property. They’ve taken away our civil right to vote on whether Jews can hold public office. Those darn liberals — taking away our civil right to vote away other people’s civil rights.”

  2. Here is another intellectual comment:… ” And no one is saying that gays should not be able to vote or own property or hold public office. This is about defending the core meaning of marriage. Women never demanded to be called men when struggling for sufferage. Blacks never demanded to be called white in the struggle to desegregate the south. Neither should homosexual couples demand to be called married couples.”
  3. Now if your feathers aint ruffled yet get a load of this one : ” My point is that most people have a very good reason to favor man-woman relationships as opposed to man-man or woman-woman relationships. Homosexuality, for instance, serves no natural or social benifit to society whatsoever. Worse, it is the most efficient method of spreading STDs like AIDs, HIV, syphillis, etc. That is why I don’t believe the government should promote and encourage such a lifestyle by forcing such a redefinition of marriage onto society, even if it allows and tolerates homosexuality.”

    Yadda yadda, those serial husbands ala Newt, Rush, can they REALLY keep a straight face supporting this?

    Is it really true that Sir Elton performed at Rush’s latest pre-divorce ritual aka marriage ceremony?
