Prop 8 Bigots seek to invalidate 18,000+ same-sex marriages

This from Sapphocrat's Lavenderliberal blog:

Mathew Staver, chairman of Liberty Counsel, a Florida-based conservative legal group, said last week that if Prop. 8 passes, Liberty Counsel would seek to invalidate all same-sex marriages already performed in California. Randy Thomasson, president of the Sacramento-based SaveCalifornia.com, said his group would support any lawsuit.

�One of the main reasons for passing Prop. 8 was to have real marriage be a role model for the next generation,� he said. �Since these are a bunch of false marriages and false marriage licenses, they are bad examples for little children.�

3. They won't rest until the gays are put in camps again and gassed.

Make NO mistake what these people are REALLY about. They couldn't do it to liberals as a whole, so they have turned their attention to a group with less than full support from the left. They are attacking the group they perceive as weakest.

We need to show them they have bitten off way more than they can chew.

8. Yet MORE OF This "For The CHILDREN Crap"!!

These people are bigots and absolute idiots! I get tired of this constant harping about this, that, and everyfuckingthing, being bad for the children. The only time it becomes a problem for children is if they are part of an LGBT family and they have to hear constant carping from idiots like Matthew Staver. Jesus, these people are DISGUSTING!

9. This is turning into a political witch hunt

the likes of which would make the third reich proud. :sarcasm:

Geez. Save our children, save America. :sarcasm:

No we are not being demonized, not at all. Only all over the radio and TV in many States and all over California. But that's all OK, just silly gays looking to get married.

Never mind the relentless bigotry behind it all. That makes the passing of Prop- hate- 8
1,000 times worse. :argh:

10. My marriage license is very real, as is my marriage.

I don't give a flying f*ck what Randy Thomasson, Mathew Staver, other members of the Bigot Brigade or their hateful version of "god" think about it. They do not own marriage no matter how much they try to pretend they do. They'd make lovely fascists.
