Maybe they WANT to overturn roe v wade. Like I said, there's no chance of that happening, and even if, EVEN IF they managed to, there's no way it would ever be followed. Abortion is here to stay, and it ain't going away. Ever.
As far as keeping gays as "2nd class citizens" that's another non-issue. Gay marriage has been spreading at a state level and more and more companies are issuing domestic partner instead of spousal benefits. When you look at the last 8 years under a "conservative" administration, has the gay rights movement made more or less progress?
That government shouldn't be in the business of approving ANYONE'S marriage is another topic entirely...

Yup. Our governmental officials are in this to kill muslims. That's the dirty little secret behind our foreign policy. No misguided belief in taking the fight to the enemy or securing American interests overseas or halting the spread of terrorism - it's all about killing muslims. Got it.
