Year after year; Americans say no to same-sex marriage

Consider the following taken from a Whistleblowers comment article from their November edition.  Year after year; Americans say ‘no’ to same-sex marriage.  We wonder how this can be and yet we have the homosexual agenda jammed down our throats.  The following article gives a great overview. Quoting: Despite the almost total capitulation of elite America – including the news media, both liberal and conservative – on the issue of same-sex marriage, Americans themselves overwhelmingly reject homosexual marriage. True, it has been forced on them by rogue judges – in Massachusetts in 2003, in New Jersey in 2006, in California and Connecticut in 2008, and in Iowa in 2009. Finally in 2009, Vermont gave in when its legislature, without being forced by a judge, legalized same-sex marriage. Maine and New Hampshire then followed suit. But as the Heritage Foundation affirms: The only reason same-sex marriage exists in the U.S. at all (currently homosexual couples can get marriage licenses in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Washington, D.C.) is because of activist courts: “Not a single state… has seen its populace vote directly to install same-sex marriage. Popular majorities in states as diverse as Maine, California, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Mississippi have voted to protect marriage. Overall almost 64 percent of the nearly 60 million popular votes cast to date have favored preserving marriage as the union of one man and one woman.â€Â Here’s a dose of American reality: Forty-one states have passed statutes defining marriage as between a man and a woman: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington and Wyoming. (The Connecticut and Iowa supreme courts later invalidated their states’ laws banning same-sex marriage.) And 30 states have language in their own state constitutions defining marriage as between a man and a woman: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin. Repeatedly, year after year; Americans say “noâ€Â to same-sex marriage. The question is: Are regular citizens just ignoramuses and bigots – or are they somehow wiser than the media pundits and “expertsâ€Â?
