Tom, You Are a Hell of an Actor, but…

Please leave our marriages alone Mr. Hanks.

Story

Last week while at his polygamist show’s premiere party Tom Hanks had the following to say:

The truth is this takes place in Utah, the truth is these people are some bizarre offshoot of the Mormon Church, and the truth is a lot of Mormons gave a lot of money to the church to make Prop-8 happen.

Wow Tom, bigot much? As an evangelical Christian I have serious problems with Mormon theology, but, I am not going to sit here and make some weird claims about crazy Mormons doing weird stuff in Utah, and then link it to the entire church. Honestly, this statement doesn’t really make any sense at all. Is he saying a lot of Mormons support gay marriage, or a lot of them don’t? He is obviously blaming Prop 8’s passing on them, even though the population of California approved the measure for the second time.

There are a lot of people who feel that is un-American, and I am one of them. I do not like to see any discrimination codified on any piece of paper, any of the 50 states in America, but here’s what happens now.

Here we go. Be prepared to see this a lot now. Now that the left is again in power, it is going to be OK to question ones Americanism on all kinds of subjects. Forget the fact that they have been wailing and gnashing their teeth about one or two conservatives saying they were un-American for actually, actively cheering for America’s defeat in Iraq. Never mind all that. It will be correct, when they question ones patriotism for not wanting to give your “fair share” to the poor for example.

Yes, get ready to here that un-American label parroted nonstop for the next four years. Any time someone supports traditional American values, they will be subjugated as racist homophobes, that are un-American. Maybe we can make it illegal, and really teach them a lesson, by jailing those that disagree with us! Beyond all the moaning about our rights being eroded during the Bush administration, the left of this country will do everything they can to shut up voices like mine in the coming years.

A little bit of light can be shed, and people can see who’s responsible, and that can motivate the next go around of our self correcting Constitution, and hopefully we can move forward instead of backwards. So let’s have faith in not only the American, but Californian, constitutional process.

A little light can be shed. The people responsible for preserving marriage in the state of California, once again, are her citizens. It wasn’t some vast right wing fundie conspiracy Mr. Hanks. The people rejected the ill advised idea of so-called gay marriage once again. They have done so in every single state that the issue has been put to vote.

There is no discrimination here. Everyone is able to marry a person of the opposite sex in every state of the Union. The Constitution is not fallible. It does not need to be corrected by itself, or anyone else. It is not a living document.

The judicial tyranny perpetrated by your likeminded sycophants in robes may well be extended now that Barack Obama will be in charge. This is what you are really talking about here anyway. An oligarchy of leftist judges may indeed turn our country further down that dark road you call progress. I promise you however, that there are many of us, who will fight with all that we have to prevent them from doing so. We will also fight to undo any damage they do in the future.
