		<description>I don&#039;t get it.  If these polls are true, then why do gay marriage bans keep passing all over the country, even California?  

Telling a pollster you&#039;re okay with it is one thing, but too many people are reluctant to really speak out when push comes to shove.</description>

-----------------------------------------------------------
&quot;Forget Daryll, it is bit who will appear to discuss choice which is something bit doesn’t seem to like&quot;

December 3rd, 2008 at 5:14 pm

Daryll is like a skipping record, repeating his mantra without regard to the facts.

Bitbit, on the other hand, seems to assume that any sexuality other than heterosexuality is &quot;chosen&quot;, which is demonstrably false.

Interesting how that works in the land of Bitbit:
You&#039;re gay?  Why did you make the wrong choice?
You&#039;re straight?  That&#039;s how God made you!

See how Bitbit&#039;s &quot;logic&quot; seems to work?</description>

Usually when Daryll comes into a gay thread, he will condemn the person who’s the subject of the thread — a judge, a politician, a gay rights advocate — and claim that person is going to h*ll for his position (unless, of course, the person is taking a stand AGAINST gay rights, in which case that person is exalted).

But who will Daryll condemn here? The entire Harris organization? For reporting the results of their poll? Stay tuned.&lt;/em&gt;

Daryll  seems  to  have  missed  alot  of &quot;teh gay&quot;   threads   lately.  Maybe  he  is  having  trouble  getting  it   up  any  more  since  Huckabee  didn&#039;t  actually  get   elected  by  God.  His posts,  when  he  does  post,  just   don&#039;t  have  the  same  enthusiasm  any  more  since  the  election,  heh.</description>

		<description>I predict the trolls will be here soon to claim that the poll is slanted.  However, Harris is a pretty fair, independent organization and can be trusted to put forth a fair poll, regardless of who commissioned it.

These numbers really aren&#039;t all that surprising.  I have seen similar numbers crop up in other polls.

So why then, do ballot initiatives defining marriage as between a man and a woman always pass?  If the recent Prop 8 in California is any indication, I would imagine that quite a few of the 75% who claim to support some kind of legal recognition for gay couples tend to get swayed by the propaganda coming from the right.  They believe the myths about how &quot;homosexuality will be taught in schools&quot;, &quot;clergymen will be required to marry gays&quot;, etc., etc.

The right won&#039;t be able to maintain the fear forever, though.  There will come a day when not only are gay couples given all the marital rights straight couples enjoy (as well as the burdens), but reasonable people everywhere will wonder why there was ever a fuss about it at all.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Zooey Says:

That’s because most people are more liberal than they would like to admit.

ADMIT IT!! Liberal is not a dirty word.&lt;/em&gt;


Liberal:
a.  Not limited to or by established, traditional, orthodox, or authoritarian attitudes, views, or dogmas; free from bigotry.
b. Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded.

Nope,  not  a  dirty  word  at  all.....</description>
