- THETEH, on 04/11/2009, -20/+459"I am a massachusetts parent helplessly watching public schools teaching my son that gay marriage is okay." Schools teaching kids to tolerate gay people? OH NO!!!
- STBAT25, on 04/11/2009, -23/+427"Dear heterosexual loving god, please let me get this commercial so I can get my hate filled acting career off the ground"
- airencracken, on 04/11/2009, -24/+395What a plethora of lies and bigotry.
- johnhummel, on 04/11/2009, -8/+316I'm still trying to figure out why a "California Doctor" has to choose between their faith and their job if gay marriage is legal.
Do you not treat a patient's broken leg if they got gay married? Or perhaps you're a gynecologist and you determine it's against your faith to give a gay married woman a pap smear? Perhaps a surgeon decides that hey, this gay man with a husband doesn't deserve to have his appendix taken out - obviously it's God's will that they came down with appendicitis.
Seriously here - why would someone either a) being gay, or b) being gay and being married to their partner in any way make a medical professional have to decide between their faith and their job?
"Nurse, fetch me the paddles - this man is in cardiac arrest!"
"Doctor, I can't - he has 'the gay', so it's against my faith to save his life! Jesus would want me to let them die!"
"Oh, well, if that's the reasoning, then I guess OK."
I'm missing something here. - Quicksilver4648, on 04/11/2009, -6/+239"I'm a California doctor who must choose between my faith and my job."
You had better ***** choose job. If you don't want to help people to your fullest then don't choose that profession. - MattRK, on 04/11/2009, -7/+224Hah. Same thing happend back in the day when the schools taught children to tolerate african americans. All those uptight parents were so pissed off.

- Bowie, on 04/11/2009, -11/+176AAAAAAH TEH *****!!!! BTHEY ARE GON FORCE ME TU HAVE A GAY ABORTION!!!!!! AND TAKE MY GUNS!!! HOCKEYMOM LIPSTICK MAVERICK!!!
- UncleRage, on 04/11/2009, -8/+145In other words...
You believe that it is right to peacefully restrict others actions by terms of law because you disagree with what they do in their bedroom and how they wish to file their tax returns.
I'm sure you and your best gay friend have wacky good times when it comes to you explaining why he/she can't enjoy the same civil liberties that you and your heterosexual mate can.
You absolutely have the right to voice your opinion via vote and, thanks to freedom of speech, I absolutely have the right to call you a bigot for your opinion. - sarahlee, on 04/11/2009, -7/+113It gets better:
http://digg.com/politics/NOM_Launches_2M4M_Really - MattRK, on 04/11/2009, -2/+107I challenge you to respond with a list of "facts" that this ad pointed out.
- scarth, on 04/11/2009, -8/+110if gays marry all the straight married couples will be forced to change their lifestyles. you cannot continue to live your life if the gays down the street (who am i kidding, the gays living downtown miles away from your safe all white village) are legally married. you will have to have bum sex. nothing but bum sex. that's what this is all about.
be afraid, be very afraid. - superhope, on 04/11/2009, -6/+105Whatever. Those religious nutjobs can keep their gloomy, stormy skies.
Personally, I'll take the rainbows and fight for everyone's equality. - TBITS, on 04/11/2009, -3/+101So it's the gays that make it rain.
Those bastards. - TaylorSPL, on 04/11/2009, -6/+91You voted for what you believed in, and in doing so you have taken away rights of others. It doesn't matter the reason, hate or beliefs, you've decided that gays are not entitled to the same rights as you.
I really liked your disclaimer saying you don't hate gay people because you have a gay friend. - HopeForTomorrow, on 04/11/2009, -5/+84So...wait...
Allowing Same sex marriages threatens Heterosexual marriages? Are they implying that civil rights threatens their rights?
If there is a god, he placed idiots upon this world. - drewfusb, on 04/11/2009, -7/+82I am a joyless homemaker, trapped in a loveless marriage of convenience. I can't even make eye contact with my children, much less talk about gay marriage.
Let me pass on my failures as God intended. Please stop gay marriage.*
*do i really have to use the sarcasm symbol here? - emailowndme, on 04/11/2009, -8/+83There is certainly a storm brewing, somewhere, a physical storm, but no, no facts were stated in that commercial...
- inactive, on 04/11/2009, -3/+78Not so long ago...
"I am a massachusetts parent helplessly watching public schools teaching my son that black people is okay to hang out with." Schools teaching kids to tolerate black people? OH NO!!!
Segregation my ass. - JoeMondo, on 04/11/2009, -2/+73No one has yet explained how gays getting married would cause such a choice anyway.
- eanbowman, on 04/11/2009, -9/+80Are you a troll, retarded or both? :P
Nobody is "forced" to do anything. You don't have to support gay marriage or enable it in any way.
The government simply will recognise couples of the same sex as having the same marriage rights.
Man some people are retarded. - inactive, on 04/11/2009, -10/+79An Awesome Parody
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urC-1cjh13s - inactive, on 04/11/2009, -6/+75You're a bad person, MuseMike, and my belief is that you shouldn't be allowed to get married.
That's all I have to say. - DickyT83, on 04/11/2009, -14/+82Ah the bible, the epitome of fictional writing.
- twill81, on 04/11/2009, -7/+72Seems like this is a brilliant case of dumb and dumberer. Its tempting to say that the NOM add is a waste of air-time but it does show up the sillyness of this sort of thing.
- Khast, on 04/11/2009, -13/+78The lies that religious groups will tell to protect their fragile beliefs. Well, they say lying is a sin...but if it is for the glory of god, then he obviously graciously ignores these lies.
hypocrites. - DasHef, on 04/12/2009, -1/+66I know exactly how that lady feels because I am an atheist from the planet earth helplessly watching christianity teaching my son that it's ok to discriminate homosexuals.
- scarth, on 04/11/2009, -1/+64i'm a california doctor that doesn't understand the oath i took as a doctor.
- noahgelman, on 04/11/2009, -8/+69That was the dumbest piece of ***** I have ever seen. That whole commercial was full of hate, bigotry, lies, and fear mongering.
/Christian - cmost, on 04/11/2009, -4/+65I love how these people are trying to convey how the gay rights activists are making decisions that affect THEIR lives. Hello!?!? What have these people been doing to gay families with the laws THEY pass for centuries??? Gay people are here, they pay taxes and they should have the same basic rights to form a contract with another person (which is really what marriage is) and form a family just like any other couples. It's not the end of the world.
- dwyck02, on 04/11/2009, -3/+61Imagine that a legal activity not being condemned. Damn commies in MA I tell you
- peaceninja, on 04/11/2009, -0/+58what's funny is that none of these 'actors' are doctors. i want a real doctor to step up to say that his rights are being infringed upon, and then i want to see his practice driven into the ground from people revolting using tools such as yelp.com. god i love the internets.
- inactive, on 04/11/2009, -1/+58I've heard that one before - separate but equal. Sorry, but I ain't drinkin' that kool-aid.
- ultraJesus, on 04/11/2009, -6/+63http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpjPzhSjPqQ&fea ...
This one is great as well. Oh noez! The children won't understand. To paraphrase Louis CK, "So two people who love each other can't get married because you don't want to explain something to your ugly child? Who cares about your ***** kid." - inactive, on 04/11/2009, -4/+60Oh God, that one had me rolling on the floor. The conviction with which she said it was hilarious. What, am I supposed to be shocked or offended at the idea? Or what?
- fiatjustitia, on 04/11/2009, -2/+57you didn't even give us any specific statements or opinions to work with, much less give us any information to back it up. Your post is a waste, as is your pathetic attempt at argument.
- eanbowman, on 04/11/2009, -3/+58Obvious troll is obvious.
Well sir, you fail.
Gay marriage is only about allowing same sex couples to have the same consideration under the law. No church must marry them, or have to accept them whatsoever any more than they have to treat them like people now.
That's why these ads are so full of *****. That's why people opposed to gay marriage are mixing religion and state and are not considering only facts related to law. - julian02392, on 04/11/2009, -7/+59Was this commercial a ***** joke?
Please tell me people aren't really THIS stupid.
WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF YOU STUPID ***** *****. - TannerPwnz, on 04/11/2009, -7/+58http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzVx-vHJuJ4

What a sham. - elmundio87, on 04/11/2009, -4/+52Awesome friends you must be with those gays, when you resent the fact that they want to get married.
You know what I'd call someone who tried to make my marriage illegal? An ENEMY. - inactive, on 04/11/2009, -2/+49What complaints? The complaint that people are offended that we're not burning homosexuals at the stake? You have all these people bitching and moaning about how horrible gay marriage is, even though it has absolutely no effect on their lives.
- EatingPie, on 04/11/2009, -39/+85Let me tell you something. Something you probably haven't heard. Something ads like this -- and something blogs like Wired -- will NEVER tell you. But it's the truth.
If you are gay, God loves you.
The oft-quoted (and in every Simpsons episode where someone holds up a sign) John 3:16 says it all. "For God so loved THE WORLD [that would be *everyone* regardless of sexual orientation] he sent his only Son, that WHOEVER [that would be *anyone* regardless of sexual orientation] believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
-Pie - julian02392, on 04/11/2009, -3/+48I'm so tired of arguing with people like you. Just shut the ***** up already.
- wonderbriefs, on 04/11/2009, -0/+45I think I love you.
- MrChunks, on 04/12/2009, -5/+49@Musemike,
I'm not a racist, my best friend is a *****.
I'm not a homophobe, my best friend is a fag who wants to get married!
That's how your comments sound to me. - apostate38, on 04/11/2009, -1/+44you'd think a christian doctor would love gay people, as they're the only group who are never going to need an abortion.
- Adam420, on 04/11/2009, -1/+44Do you really think people choose to be gay? That's sad...
Every day is straight people day, we need a day for ourselves once in awhile. - inactive, on 04/11/2009, -3/+45Most unintentionally hilarious thing I've seen all year.
- Hnnnnnghhh, on 04/11/2009, -6/+47Who wants to support Prop 9000?
The Bill to Prevent MuseMike from Marriage.
Section 1. MuseMike will, in the case that he is married, have his marriage anulled, losing tax status and rights to visit family members in hospitals. If he has children they will become wards of the state.
Section 2. If MuseMike isn't currently married, he will be prevented by state and federal law form ever getting married and will never get that car insurance discount.
Section 3. MuseMike is a fearful bigoted ***** who centers his life around fairy tales, and his kind will only disappear over time. - wonderbriefs, on 04/11/2009, -3/+44@OldEnglish23,
So I take it you've been on the fence about it for a while. So many dudes are coming onto you telling you how pretty you are, that you're almost convinced? -
