Won’t even get into how far this country has fallen morally where a President who says he is Christian will try to legitimize an unnatural life style that is a sin as outlined by God’s word. One battle ground state to the Repubs!!
The government and the bible intertwining? Sounds like something that should NEVER happen, coming from a Christian…..
Dumb is what we expect from you suiko!!! Try voting him out like the voters voted in the constitutional amendment. If you don’t like it either live with it or leave.

Hey, if you live in NC and don’t like the gay law, then move out.
Hey, if you don’t like Obama, the healthcare bill, and what Obama is doing to the country, then just leave the U.S.
Sounds dumb huh
Yep sure does cuz it is apples and oranges!! If you dont like the NC law there are many other states you could go to. If you dont like what the president is doing you fire him! and just so you know, many people have in fact have or are considering leaving if he gets re-elected.
Tue is open
@ The government and the bible intertwining? Sounds like something that should NEVER happen, coming from a Christian
UH……..NOW THAT IS DUMB!!! What do you put your hand on in court? What is the president sworn in with his hand on? One nation under God! DUH!!!!!!
If you dont like the NC law there are many other states you could go to.
If you don’t like the U.S. laws that this sorry president is making then there are many other countries you could go to.
Ratboy, you complain about this president 50 times a day in here, just leave the country buddy. That is your solution right? Funny how you can come in here and complain all day and night about Obama, yet a few people can’t come in here and complain about the law that NC passed without you telling them to just “leave the state”. Put your words where your mouth is, just leave the country.
UH……..NOW THAT IS DUMB!!! What do you put your hand on in court? What is the president sworn in with his hand on? One nation under God! DUH!!!!!!
How does that have anything to do with the bible determining the laws that our government should pass…..which is what DB was just saying? Oh that’s what, nothing. Heck, some people even have a problem with those 2 things. But putting your hand on a bible has nothing to do with determining law. But seems like DB is fine with the bible determining what laws our government should or should not pass…..lol
President Obama made history today !!
Deal with it, and know if you will be on the right side of history.
