Who is "They"?

Pence just had a press conference, he wants clarification added to this bill by the end of the week.

Wonder if the three anti-gay boys from the last signing will be there for this one.  :no:

The people you think should have had the opportunity to scrutinize the ACA.  It's been out there for years now; have they read it?
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Yes.  They didn't have any chance before it passed.  Even Pelosi, didn't know what all was in it.  I thought Obama was going to be all about transparency?

Okay, let's stop.  I don't want to high jack this thread about one we have already beat on.

I thought the THEY was referring to this bill.

Yes, you should continue to beat on the gays' beef.   :biggrin:

Somehow, this took a turn in the discussion that I am now ready to deal with.   As open minded as I am trying to be, I'm pretty certain, that i will not be beating any gay beef.....(Not that there is anything wro.....ahh, never mind)

"In conclusion, each signatory to this letter recognizesthe important place that rights to
religious liberty hold in the set of rights we regard as fundamental in the U.S. legal system. Yet,
rather than advancing reasonable concerns about religious freedom, the proposed Religious
Freedom Restoration Act is more a solution in search of a problem, or worse, if passed will
create confusion, conflict, and a wave of litigation that will threaten the clarity of religious
liberty rights in Indiana while undermining the state's ability to enforce other compelling interests."

Pence and the Indiana Legislature were warned by 30 expert law professors!

C'mon Ex, you should know that people with a far right agenda never let sound advice get in the way of implementing a bad idea.  ;D

Nope, Millions.  Millions of everyday, hardworking, good people.  If you think I'm wrong....then prove it.

I can say this.  Exactly 1,264,877 Million of people voted for Mike Pence and several million voted for our state senators and congressmen, and they voted for this bill by a LARGE number.

  Just because the Homophobes voted for it and Dingle Berry Pense doesn't make it right or moral.    :rant:  Hawk you know it is wrong, get right with your god. :pray:  :pope:

Hey Troll, why don't you go to a Muslim caterer and have them cater a dinner with ham for the main course then go to a Muslim photographer and hire him for a gay get together where everyone is wearing shirts you purchased from a Muslim and had him put naked women on them Oh, and don't forget to get a copy of the Bible from the Muslim book store. :wink:

I doubt you will find many Muslim caterers, photographers, shirt vendors or book store owners in Indianapolis.  To find those things, you will most likely have to go to a Muslim country and, according to the laws in that country, you are correct that he will be unable to find those things.  Are you suggesting that a Christian version of Sharia law is right for Indiana because it sure sounds that way.

And by the way, I'm pretty sure no one has ever been able to buy a book on satanism in any Christian book store.

So now I see both New York and Connecticut have banned state-sponsored travel to Indiana.
