		<description>Robertocucina,
I don&#039;t wish anyone dead. I want to her and Brian wailing, weeping, screaming, gnashing their teeth, rending their clothes and putting their hair out by the handfuls over the loss of hetero- supremacy and privilege and for their abuse of our community.

Wishing people dead is a not a very &quot;moral&quot; thing to do (unless they actually threaten directly with physical harm or with death) since you mentioned &quot;moral&quot;.</description>

		<description>I just cant believe this country would be like this after all the men and women who dedicated their lives to make this nation so great, but in fact they forget to let the citizens to be happy to be part of this country. I am very upset with the world.</description>

		<description>Flip,

We can take comfort in that there is no referendum process in Vermont (unlike in Maine) for the uglies of NOM and for their queen the Sparkle Cow and her cohort Brian Brown to easily exploit.
And so, maybe the most they can do in Vermont is just be obnoxious nuisances. I don&#039;t know about New Hampshire though.</description>

		<description>We can all target NY and California in ways that legislators there may not realize.  If given the choice between expanding a business in New York, or going right across the border into Vermont, the choice should be obvious.  If we have the choice of vacationing in Vermont, New Hampshire, or Massachusetts versus New York, we need to take our dollars away from the Empire State.  We need to fight, but not violently.  Our cause must go to the streets, to the people, and to the steps of the Capitol in ALL 50 states.

Have we not considered that if all the gays and lesbians took off a day from work...the same day...then our straight friends might pay attention.  We could shock the nation, if we all stand united.</description>

		<description>Oh, it just tickles me that &quot;sparkle cow&quot; is taking off.
A million thanks to the geniuses at votefortheworst.com for blessing the world with such a perfect term to describe middle aged, overweight, hetero soccer moms. :)
Oh yeah, the New York thing....
Grrrrrrr, don&#039;t get me started again.</description>

		<description>Sparkle Cow is at it again!

She is crowing about the fact that this is the “nail in the coffin” for same-sex marriage, and armed with her so-called “victory” she hopes to team up with Catholic bishops in NH to overturn the new law there, AND she is confident that she can get the marriage law overturned in VT! Google this one and read the comments yourself!

This woman, and her cohort Brian Brown, have no integrity, no decency, no self-respect, not one shed of human kindness toward anyone, let alone toward LGBT’s. Every time either one of them opens their mouth it is condescension, arrogance, and ignorance.

They are not worthy of any respect. I am sorry – - they are not, because they obviously have no respect for us.

I have tried all my life to see the good in people, and I believe each one of us has some humanity. But not these two. No way. They act like schoolyard bullies who laugh when they beat the kid to the ground and enjoy watching them suffer.

It is evident that Maggie Gallagher and her ilk want us to have nothing, absolutely nothing. No marriage, no civil unions, no domestic partnerships, nothing – -and it is evident that they don’t want to be persuaded despite overwhelming evidence that Americans favor some sort of legal recognition for gay couples.

This is a short term setback, not a long term defeat. The fact that this even came UP for a vote is progress. The true heroes are going to be the ones who stood shoulder to shoulder with us, gay or straight, to become an unstoppable force for equality. It is already happening, and in a matter of time, we will prevail.

Oh no, but not for Mssrs. Gallagher and Brown. They act like this defeat is the end of the discussion, that we should hang our heads and weep. I seem to remember someone else saying the exact same thing back in 1977 after a certain vote in Miami, and we all know how that turned out.

So gays in NH and VT – -heads up! You are now on NOM’s hit list! Here’s a suggestion.

If either one of these so called “persons” comes to stir up some trouble in your town, here is what you do. Go to a bakery and order a nice big fruit pie. Go to one of their rallies and “go Town Hall” by walking right up to them and pelting ‘em right in the puss.

Need inspiration? Watch this:

We will prevail. Happy Holidays.

		<description>Jennifer, I apologize, but I am deeply deeply angry at this woman and all that she represents.  The woman is a hypocrite and a bigot, a former unwed mother who obviously had sex outside of marriage. So much for her tirades about the sanctity of marriage. She and other idiots like her have NO MORAL AUTHORITY to pass judgement on others.  I wish her a hasty, nasty death.</description>

		<description>I am sure that since NOM&#039;s state mission is to protect marriage, they will be supporting the amendment to bad divorce in favor of annulment. in California. OK, I won&#039;t hold my breath since bigotry isn&#039;t logical.

		<description>Our opponents claim victory? Over what? Having a 50% divorce rate per year amongst traditional marriages is victorious? Adulterous affairs within these so called traditional marriages is an everyday occurrence, no victory there. Rising daily cases of spousal abuse within traditional marriages doesn&#039;t represent victory. Child abuse cases within a traditional marriage that occur on a daily basis lacks a call for victory. Traditional marriages have and continue to produce thousands of dysfunctional families across America do to their inability to establish a healthy normal relationship within their traditional marriages.  
You know that old saying, &quot;If it isn&#039;t broken, don&#039;t fix it&quot;? Well, at least 50% of traditional marriage is broken and you broke it.
 We as gay men and women will continue to love our partners and maintain our strength and dignity within our relationships. Meanwhile, those of you that claim victory will continue to place shame on your definition of a traditional marriage.</description>
