ORIGINAL: servantforuse Proposition 8 was upheld by a huge margin in a very liberal State. I can say with some certainty that is was much more that the religious right who voted for this. The majority of Americans, whether right or wrong, still believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman. When the people can vote, and decide as a people, That IS a free Country. Breathe, I think you misunderstand the type of government we have in the US. It isn't a democracy. It is instead a constitutional republic. At least that is what we're supposed to have. On practical levels we're closer to an oligarchy. In any case, I've seen liberty and freedom expressed this way: Democracy is 2 wolves and 1 sheep discussing whats for dinner. Liberty is an armed sheep. To the OP I say this: If we had more folks like you we'd, um, have fewer folks like you. Uncle Nasty Hi UncleNasty, thanks for explaining that, i stand corrected.
