Talking Points: 1/14

*** begin quote ***

Another $100 million of American tax money heading to Haiti

*** end quote ***

BO’R brings up a good point: American aid will be stolen by a corrupt “government”.

He argues for intervention. Sorry, but it’s not our place to “give” freedom to the people of Haiti.

We have too many “wars”: “OCO — Overseas Contingency Operation aka Terrorism”Afpak, Iraq, “Some Drugs”, Poverty, yada, yada, yada.

Sorry, we have way too many wars!

Time to condense. Like Campbell’s soup, DoD: brings ALL the boys and girls home, condense all the intelligence into DOD, and let’s cut the foolishness. Save some bucks too!

NEWJERSEY: Marriage and politics

NJ Senate votes no on same-sex ‘marriage’
by Joshua Mercer on January 7th, 2010

*** begin quote ***

Victory!

FoxNews.com reports: “New Jersey’s state Senate has defeated a bill to legalize gay marriage, the latest in a string of setbacks for advocates. The defeat, by a vote of 20-14, likely ends any chance that the state Legislature approves gay marriage soon.”

*** end quote ***

Now, don’t misinterpret this as support for either side of this “debate”.

I believe that the gooferment has NO role in marriage.

You could make a SMALL role in ensure that children are appropriately supported.

Marriage “licenses” have their origins in the racist past. Time to file them back there. In history’s dust bin of bad ideas with gooferment education, gooferment money, and gooferment licenses of all types.

Churches should be able to “marry” whomever they want. People have the right of free association.

Benefits for state-sponsored “marriage” are anathema to a Free Society. Income taxes are as well.
