    Not anymore

    Yes, there is.

    He resigned of his own free will. He made a bad call taking the job in the first place because he, like you, is still living in the past and thinks such attitudes are socially acceptable. They're not.

    That this thread exists is proof I am right.

    Of course you believe Obama should resign also since that was his opinion at that time, right?

    Yeah, now we have a reason for the liberals to ask for Obama's resignation.

    like I said, my private donation to Obama was not private, why should his be?

    Actually, it is. 10, 15, 20 years ago there would be no debate. The amount of persons in favor of same sex marriage at that time was so low, it wasn't even worthy of discussion. In fact, it was so low, had it been brought up, if it got any attention whatsoever, it would have amounted to nothing more than ridicule.

    My, how the times have changed.

    So, are you going to call for Obama's resignation?

    Sure. Not a fan.

    How does that relate to the topic? Fact is 10 years ago, attempting to debate same sex marriage would go NOWHERE. If you started a thread on the topic, either pro- or against-, you'd be lucky if anyone even read it, much less bothered to respond. Now, on most political boards I participate in, it is topic numero uno. Because the balance has tipped, and the haters are freaking the (*)(*)(*)(*) out, realizing that they've lost, which is something that they never in a million years thought was even remotely possible. Yet, it has happened.

    It's no longer a question of "if" same sex marriage is going to be legal nationwide. Only when. And those opposed now know that, and are desperately hoping to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. But they won't.

    Where did I say anything about same sex marriage?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Actually it is talked about now because Obamafans need to distract from his failures.

    so you'd be ok with a CEO or exec of Chic-fil-a being forced to resign for donating to a pro-gay supporting group.... right?



    and remember, FWIW - I do support Mozilla's decision to force a resignation for this reason, even though I don't support their line of thinking.... but then, I'm not a hypocrit. I would support CFA doing the same reason.

    Oh really? So are you now saying you don't care about the issue? Because Bush used it to distract from his massive failures. Obama delivered for us. Far more than we thought he would. I'm pretty happy. I also have a better job than I did under Bush and better health care. I'm finally getting close to making six figures. Could not have done that under Bush.

    Not related to the topic? Same time this guy donated $1000 to protect traditional marriage. Very related.

    A more serious question is being avoided here. Why is the value of the work not on the table? There is an awful lot of discussion of the pros and cons of gay marriage. We don't talk about politics at work since political views are irrelevant to the mission of the job place. Why is gay marriage not similarly irrelevant?

    There are some people here who do nothing but copy and paste the same comment every time they post.

    Anyway, let's just add that word to the list...

    Words Rendered Meaningless:
    X Homophobe
    X Racist
    X Bigot
    _ Thug
