HRC DENOUNCES REMARKS BY PRESIDENT AS DIVISIVE AND DISCRIMINATORY

‘It is Always Wrong to Use the U.S. Constitution to Discriminate Against Any American’

WASHINGTON – The Human Rights Campaign denounced remarks by the President during tonight’s State of the Union address as being divisive and discriminatory. Although not explicitly endorsing an amendment denying marriage for same-sex couples, the President came dangerously close in his remarks to supporting efforts to write discrimination into the Constitution. The President also misrepresented the proper role of the courts in protecting rights and freedoms by criticizing "activist judges."

"In more than 200 hundred years of American history the Constitution has never been amended to deny basic rights and responsibilities. It is always wrong to use the Constitution to discriminate against any American. The Constitution should never be used to deny fundamental rights like the ability to visit a partner in the hospital, or the protection of Social Security Survivor benefits," said HRC President Cheryl Jacques.

Americans makes me ill.
I am so scared for this country and the world, if we do not get this man out of office this year.

"Congress shall pass no law respecting the establishment of any religion....."

"And, oh yeah, no fags."

Psssh. That's not American.

To paraphrase: "Change Constituion to sanctify marriage as union between man and woman." Incurious George wants to amend Constitution to legally discriminate aginst homosexuals! Where is the media on this? Are they deaf?

and almost made it, but when he started talking about marriage, I couldn't take it. I KNEW a year ago that he was going to make this a big issue, but I did not think he would use the SOTU to broadcast it.

I am just sick. He has GOT to go!

just waiting for them to start spinning it
