		<description>Ok, here goes nothing. I want everybody to think about the consequences of what abomination has taken place today. First off, if gay was a nationwide epidemic, our population would deplete and the human race would be obsolete. Also I think it&#039;s kinda disgusting that women with women and men with men thing. I&#039;m sorry to tell you people, but gay is a desperate last resort for someone who can&#039;t find a special someone of the opposite sex. I&#039;m sorry people but gay is not hereditary, and I can prove it scientifically. And I am a parent, so I don&#039;t want my child around this immature display of I couldn&#039;t get a piece, now I&#039;m gay!!! Freakin people are rediculous and gays, you all know you&#039;re going to hell!!!</description>

		<description>Many conservatives don&#039;t really grasp the politics of this issue.  An interesting thing several recent polls have shown is that Independents support same-sex marriage at a higher rate than Democrats.  Independent voters provide the swing voters for elections -- it is not wise to take political positions that will lose you elections.</description>

		<description>We should specifically ban recognition of any marriages performed in those two congressional districts, lol. Ok, that&#039;d be unconstitutional, but fun. And hey, Cheney didn&#039;t have any trouble trampling the constitution so why should we be so uptight about it, lol. The sad statistical fact of life is this, with 435 Members and 100 Senators and assorted Delegates, we&#039;re gonna get several handfuls of boobs and idiots who will want their 15 mins of shameless fame, pay no never mind to all that!</description>

		<description>Jesus.  Why don&#039;t these sanctimonious windbags mind their own business and stick to what they were elected to do, represent their constituents?  Last I checked, Ohio and Oklahoma didn&#039;t have voting precincts in the District.  I have about had it with this crap.</description>
