“It’s not a competing intellectual argument cobble. There was no intellectual argument to begin with. “Dear Mr. President, please support gay marriage” might as well be written in purple crayon with a smiley face at the bottom.

What are the goals and what are the steps to accomplish those goals? That letter doesn’t even superficially address those questions.”

OY, lech.

It doesn’t have to state all that, lech. It just adds to keeping the pressure on the President to support the issue. He doesn’t write the laws, but he talks to the people that do. And he can speak up on this again and again. And that’s all good on a number of levels.

rob, do you understand the economics behind having a child and getting a “tax break?”
You’ll spend tens of thousands on the child above and beyond the tax break.

why should i give a shit how much someone spends on a kid? dont shit a kid out if you are gonna complain how much they cost, but dont expect tax breaks because of it! GRRRR

“i find it funny obama is now “supporting gay marriage” when he’s a total homophobe.”

Right, this argument is borne out by the video on “itgetsbetter” showing all the people who happen to be gay and work in the White House offices. Good work, Rob.

Idiot.

“Dear Mr Policeman I have a boo boo.”

“Um… OK what do you want me to do about it?”

“I have a boo boo. I want you to be against boo boos!”

“OK I’m against boo boos. Will you leave me alone now?”

“Why do I have a boo boo still? I thought you said you’re against them!”

“I am. You asked me to be against boo boos.”

“But I still have a boo boo!”

“Is there something you want me to do?”

“Be against boo boos!”

“Are you fucking retarded or something?”
