Let's get this straight .....

[Skittles]

1. makes it sound like Jesse James and Tiger woods were a married couple

[madinmaryland]

2. Ordering up an ASSKICKING for Skittles for the thought that Tiger Woods and

Jesse James were a married couple!

[Tennessee Gal]

3. LOL! Yes it does. nt

[NYC_SKP]

4. I don't think they were married, or even living together!

[Angry Dragon]

6. No they were not

they just had sex with perhaps the same people

[AsahinaKimi]

8. That was my thought too...

I have no idea who Jesse James is.. (other than a historic outlaw.)

[JoeyT]

9. He's that guy that married Sandra Bullock.

Other than that I had to wikipedia him. Apparently he built motorcycles too.

[patrice]

5. Snagged. Tks!

[jp11]

7. This graphic is too complicated to do the one two punch many

RW troll types like to make by posting something racist/inflammatory about democrats/liberals or any other group that offends their superior values in internet motivation-esque graphics.

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that all but one of these chooses to nitpick individuals as the 'cause/reason' to justify the position with which I completely agree. I think that makes it a failure since anyone can nitpick individual people to 'blame' or make examples of.

[Curmudgeoness]

12. Too complicated, yes. Too many words, no pictures. nt

[PatrynXX]

10. thats the primary argument that changed my mind

ie so if yall can break just about all 10 commandments and don't consider that a sin how are you going to pick and choose which one is? Made no sense to me and the old book is a history book. new book isn't and Jesus said nothing about homosexuals. and how are they going to be the one to shoot first (literally I had this argument after the shooting in WI with my brother saying he's surprised the Homosexuals hadn't done a mass shooting yet. Uh more like the other way round...

Similar to the Pro Life horse shit. Pro life my fucking ass. Anti abortion thats all you can put on paper. pro life doesn't exist. Maybe if your one who believes in reincarnation but other than that most anti abortion people are rich and pro death. and much of the right are farther to the right an the extreme sides of people I know personally who are anti abortion. Odds of them reading this are second to none so I can swear about it as much as I want.

11. Protecting "the institution of marriage" was never anything more than a thinly veiled red herring

It's all about bigotry and irrational hatred, in all instances. People just want to pretend it's about protecting marriage so they don't have to admit they are bigots and assholes, even though it's immediately transparent to anyone with more than a handful of synapses actively firing.

[xtraxritical]

28. It's just a buzz word dog whistle for the bullies.

[Flatpicker]

13. Remember

Newt also wanted an Open Marriage with his 2nd wife.

St Reagan was divorced.

[3catwoman3]

14. and the Reagans' daughter...

...arrived about 7 months after they married. Guess they didn't "just say no."

[Jamastiene]

15. K&R

Well said.

[LynneSin]

16. People say that the homosexuals will ruin marriage....

However, it seems we heteros have been doing an excellent job of it for centuries.

[Heather MC]

25. They left out all tbe married pastors who sleep with people in their

in their congregation

[blur256]

17. I think my favorite response to this will always be to people who oppose gay marriage,

is the gays make better babies. They do, when you think about it. They pick and choose when they want to reproduce instead of popping out tons of kids they don't really care about. And these people are rich and can provide for them, but what about everyone else? Sad. Just sad.

[jp11]

18. WTF?

Some people might do as you describe, you are vaguely making a blanket statement about some people that simply aren't true as well as saying that gays 'make better babies'. WTF is that supposed to mean?

Not all gays are rich, nor will every gay person who chooses to have a child, or adopt 'really care' about them. It is a logical conclusion that those people will but it would be the same for a straight woman to subject her body to carrying a child for 9 months and giving birth to do the same yet it is not always true.

It is inaccurate to make such blanket stereotype statements about large groups of people.

[blur256]

21. I'm just being a little tongue-in-cheek when saying that

because that is an argument from the right when saying that gays shouldn't be allowed to marry. They say that when people sleep together it should be towards the goal of procreation. My point it that, if that were true, then we wouldn't have all of the teen pregnancies, unwanted marriages, abortions, blah blah blah. They bring the self loathing and hatred upon themselves.

[blur256]

20. And I know that may not follow completely, but hear me out

we have the right-wingers who preach abstinence only sex ed, because they want kids to get married and then flourish the land with their seed as it were. But we all know that doesn't work, and trust me, I know because my high school had the highest teen pregnancy rate in the state when I was going to school there. This would be the buckle of the Bible belt no less. So, if their basis for not allowing gay marriage is that gay people can't procreate, well A:that's not true, and B: they are jealous of the fact that we make better babies.

[Godot51]

19. In Summation...

That about sums it up. We straight/white/conservative/christian/real Americans have "values". and nobody else does. We decide who to deride.

[HCE SuiGeneris]

22. A huge KnR

[tclambert]

23. Half of all marriages end in divorce. The other half end in death.

[Sheepshank]

27. Nah...there a few of us round kicking and screaming after 30+ years.

absolutes are annoying and dilute an argument
imho.

[tclambert]

35. Then your marriage hasn't ended yet.

There's only the two ways for it to end.

[Sheepshank]

36. I count 4....but who's counting?

[sarge43]

24. My response

Only two people might destroy my marriage: I am one of them and I'm married to the other.

[leeroysphitz]

26. I knew it was Teh Gays. n/t

[marble falls]

29. I truly wish that those against same sex marriage realize that same sex marriage doesn't amend....

any body's rights and it doesn't cost anybody else anything.

[RZM]

30. I'd bet many religious conservatives would use these same examples in their argument

Against marriage equality. Many probably believe that the push for same-sex marriage is another symptom of the decline of the institution of marriage and 'traditional family values' that these examples are also evidence of. They connect all of this with porn, T and A on tv, promiscuity, and birth control as symptoms of the left's promotion of homosexuality, secularism, permissiveness, and their encouragement of the abdication of personal responsibility.

To them, all of this stuff comes from the same source.

[Peaceful Protester]

31. Who did Adam and Eve's children marry?

...just saying

[Raster]

32. uh huh. That must be the biblical-type of marriage ol' Chick-filled-with-hate is talking about.

[progress2k12nbynd]

33. Yet somehow we count on Hollywood to get out the vote for Dems. WTF? nt

[Kurovski]

34. Don't forget Henry the VIII.

People are always forgetting Henry.
