what 2010-04-08T18:17:17 subject: I like this. "If you are bored and disgusted by politics and don't bother to vote, you are in effect voting for the entrenched Establishments of the two major parties, who please rest assured are not dumb, and who are keenly aware that it is in their interests to keep you disgusted and bored and cynical and to give you every possible reason to stay at home doing one-hitters and watching MTV on primary day. By all means stay home if you want, but don't bullshit yourself that you're not voting. In reality, there is no such thing as not voting: you either vote by voting, or you vote by staying home and tacitly doubling the value of some Diehard's vote." — David Foster Wallace I had margaritas for beer.

I was on an Amtrak train back to Chicago on election day, I went from drunks partying on the Amtrak to watching a knife fight nearly break out on the green line. Inside the city you could feel the tension in the air like a knife, which is very unusual for the windy city I know and love. I am Thwart-Man! *thwart* *thwart* *thwart*

jadefalcon1 2010-08-10T14:50:45 subject: re: funny in reply to the_bob in message #7727: I really don't understand why people are so quick to abandon the very Constitution they worship in favor of a convenient scam in the name of their bigotry. A lot of these whackjobs don't seem to get that the Constitution applies to EVERYBODY, not just the people they like and agree with. As for playing it right, I don't see how the 4th Amendment leaves any room for argument. Everyone involved in this argument is a US Citizen. Equal protection says they get equal access to all legal rights and obligations. Period. There's no "except these people" clause in there. *shakes head* Just because you don't like somebody doesn't mean you get to disenfranchise them out of spite. These petulant fucks need to get over it. ~Jade Falcon [mail][blog][page] "I could pull a Kit, and start stripping." ~What

the_bob 2010-08-10T16:08:50 subject: re: funny in reply to jadefalcon1 in message #7728: If they play it right is more of a reference to the way that Prop 8 was defeated. Please note that I am almost completely ignorant of your legal and justice system. It is strange and makes little sense. If my assumptions or information is wrong please correct it. If the defeat of Prop 8 was done just right than they could have gotten anti-gay marriage laws over turned as unconstitutional all over the country. I think would require the challenge to go to the supreme court. I am not sure. I remember reading about it and thinking that it was a clever way to get the laws changed country wide without have to do it state by state. I think gay men and women have the right to be a miserable as the rest of us. I mean the right for wedding registries. I mean the right for divorces. Honestly it doesn't really matter who you marry. I have never had reason to believe that stopping them will serve any moral purpose. Their marriages are as stable, if not more so, than traditional marriages. They can raise kids who are better adjusted than from a traditional marriage. There is no reason except that you can't stand those faggots imitation the good and righteous god fearing life you're living. That isn't a reason by the way. Anyone need a soap box? Bob -- The universe dances to its own music. It is not for mortal men to know the tune or to call the dance. All one can do is pray that they do not get stepped on.

paradox 2010-08-11T11:47:42 subject: re: funny in reply to the_bob in message #7729: The overturning of Prop 8 has to go to the Federal Supreme Court and be overturned before the ruling would directly apply to other states. Then I suppose those states with gay marriage bans would have to evaluate if the ruling directly addresses their ban, or if the wording is different enough from Prop 8 to require another trip to the State or Federal Supreme Court.

superbiscuit 2010-08-11T18:46:52 subject: re: funny in reply to jadefalcon1 in message #7739: Actually, actually, I was wrong. Apparently only the DA's office and the governor can initiate an appeal, since they were the only defendants. It'll be interesting to see if either office will actually step into that particular PR shitstorm, or just let the ruling stand. Never again is what you swore the time before.
