U.S. fights benefits for gay couples

yup just another political manuever by coakly--anything for a vote but 1 more reason she WON'T get mine

why not provide benefits to gays, obama provides it to everyone out of country.

i am not gay, but if obama can provide for lazy ass out of country lowlifes that dont work why cant he provide for decent humans that are working in this country and so what if they are gay.

that must mean no money for rupaul and me,rats

Its time for the handouts to stop, all handouts. Gays, Illegals,lazy,etc. If they aren't handed everything, they just might figure out a way to earn what they need.

Gays typically earn a lot more on average, meaning they pay a lot more in tax too. Ignorant, uneducated, hateful bigoted people like you need to understand that.

What "handouts" are you referring to, exactly? This article is about EQUAL RIGHTS for all U.S. citizens (all citizens treated equally), a concept enshrined in our founding documents that any patriotic person supports.

I would like to know how is it me being Gay has messed up the Kids. I have kids and they are just fine, I fully support them and take care of them. They are doing very well in School and overall in Life!
As far as the Gay Marriage debate, I should have the same rights as you and other Hetro Couples. This is a Civil Rights issue and people like you have NO right to vote on My rights.!!! I love my Partner and if something should happen to him, I Have no rights as it stands now (Federal Rights/Benefits) If something should happen to either of us.
We all deserve, no should be able to have the Same right to be married and afford the Federal Benefits as you and everyone else has the right to!!.
I am so proud that Coakley has filed this Suit and it standing up for all of us!!!

When will Massachusetts have gone far enough in casting aside tradition?

Why do Gays get special consideration when polygamists are discriminated against in liberal Massachusetts? Polygamy has been practiced for thousands of years, yet it is not legal in Massachusetts. Gay marriage has never been legal historically, so why the sudden acceptance over the more traditional polygamy?

Does this sound ridiculous or sarcastic? It's not. Ultimately, polygamy will be legalized. How can one argue against it if you favor Gay marriage. Imagine 2 married Gay men arguing that polygamy is immoral. That would be absurd.

Then what's next after polygamy? We're on a slippery slope, and those who deny it are disingenuous.

Amen. Professor is an evil, twisted old man whose heart is filled with nothing but hate.

I've had it with Obama's lying, two-faced BS. He's lost my vote in the next election.

The overwhelming majority of children across the planet are being raised by hetero- parents, half of whom abandon their marriages and their children in sordid abusive, domestically-violent homes and divorce proceedings. Some of those children are being raised competently and lovingly by same-sex parents. So, next time, before you speak, think -- i.e., if you're at all equipped to do it.

Don't pay them any mind Frank, a lot of us, though we don't go around shouting it from the rooftops, support the gay community. You and your family deserve as many rights as heterosexual couples.
Ignore these fools that bash, they must be very unhappy people.

Where did you get "your" children?

Perhaps from dysfunctional, failed, abusive hetero- relationships where they typically abandon their kids? Counties everywhere have a generous supply of these kids.

Where is the guarantee that hetero- parenbts aren't sexually abusing their kids? It happens all the time, you idiot.

Yes, they are ridiculed by the poisoned offspring of ignorant, prejudiced parents -- such as yourself.

'gays' would not be here if it were not for 'non-gays'
so kudos to non-gays for bringing up some gays

here is the thing.
regular gays and homeless gays and black gays can all have whatever they got coming, just like anyone non-gay.
that's cool

but when you/we have to define what a gay person is to a pre-teen/pre-sexual child, it's super wierd, and unfortunate.
I don't think a normal gay person likes to discuss their sexuality with a child, just like a normal hetero person.
Butt, when this issue is aroused, it is a flagrant thing in the face of those young children.
It sexualizes them, it makes them think on things before they are emotionally ready.
Heck, grown people aren't ready half the time.

The point here is that society is largely being forced to shift into accepting this and it is

That is a clear eyed look at the 'problem' with licensing public gay marriage, too bad if you hate it or want to call me names.

sexuality should be dealt with in private by grown-ups
