In Maine for the thirty-first time homosexual marriage has been rejected by the voters. This has happened every single time that the issue has been put to a popular vote in thirty-one states. This is the first time that a law passed in a legislature has been repealed by the people. Other such laws were enacted [...]

The legislature foisted same sex marriage on the voters of Maine as part of the 6 for 6 campaign. PPP shows a majority of it’s voters are not enthused and the traditional marriage measure may have majority support. Tabor, the tax and spending limitation, looks a bit in trouble. You got it even before real [...]

Near Live UPDATE in Comment Section: Final Passage 14-5. Amendments had 12 opposed. As I heard it might be, the bill was rushed over to the house and passed.

The President took a baby step toward giving benefits to gay couples. I have no objection to interpreting the family leave act to allow gay couples to take care of their partners. One has to wonder why leave out other unmarried couples? What is the legal basis? The problem occurs with the statements that this [...]

The issue of Same Sex Marriage brought out a crowd even larger than the Comprehensive plan. People were not in agreement with the notion that our city should push for marriages of people who by definition can’t be marriage partners. Some opponents seemed a little over the top. “This world is on its way to [...]

Senator Adams understood that imposing needless regulation on business in this economy is unwise and so did 3 other senators. HB 5, the Lawyers Right to Sue More, bill went down to defeat after a fair vote and an open public hearing today. The defeat of HB 5 in a public vote undermines the whine [...]

There are two bills stirring some measure of controversy in the General Assembly right now. One shouldn’t be controversial at all, Senate Bill 27 which is the Marriage Protection Act.

Warning: What you are about to read is not PC. It could result in exploding suppositions. Yes, there are pants of panic from a new UN study which says that the global population will soar to 9 billion by 2050. I say great. That’s more people we can teach the Gospel to. (I had to [...]

The Gay movement and the Christian right seem in perpetual conflict. I wonder if that is necessary. I am a Conservative Christian. I believe the Bible is the Revealed Word of God and the rule for faith and life. I find that as debatable as the fact that the sun shines on cloudless days. God is [...]

Marriage started as an institution to bond the sexes. A renegade court tried to change it and in spite of bullies and politically correct mobs, the voters stood strong. Some extremists would like to turn CA into third world mobocracy. The mob leaders form an enemies list and instead of accepting defeat, they target those [...]
