Steny Hoyer: Same-Sex Couples Are Endowed 'By God' With Right to Marry
2015-04-26
[CNSNEWS] Citing the Declaration of Independence, House Democratic Whip the mealy-mouthed Steny StinkyHoyer
... Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi's second banana, or plaintain, or mango, or whatever he is...
(Md.) argued on the House floor yesterday that same-sex couples are endowed by "their Creator--by God" with a right to marry.

"Our Declaration of Independence, as all of us quote so often, says: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men'--of course, if Jefferson were writing today, it would be either all people or all humankind--'are created equal, that they are endowed by'--not a Congress, not by a Constitution, not by a will of the majority--'their Creator'--by God--'with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.'

#10  BTW, the Declaration of Independence does not say anything about marriage either.

By Hoyer's interpetation, honor killings, serial murder, beheadings, drug use/addiction, etc. or anything that might make one happy is guaranteed by the DOI.

#9  I don't recall that the Constitution has much of anything to say about marriage--straight or gay.

#8  I wonder if Steny knows the rest of it, or why it was written?

I'll wager he doesn't know the Constitution, either.

#3  A little bit of science is missing there. Like 'natural' selection. [This is from the same "science is settled" MMGW crowd]

#1  I couldn't care less, except---knowing our educational establishment (Israeli models itself on American)---it's just a question of time until "same-sex experience" becomes an obligatory part of K-12.
