COWARDS ! ! !

Massachusetts Senate Floor




Recently the Massachusetts Senate in a a cowardly voice vote voted to strike from the book the 1913 law. This law was used by former Gov.Mitt Romney from keeping the our State of Massachusetts from becoming the Las Vegas for gay "marriage" Opponents claim that the law, which was drafted at the beginning of the last century, was drafted as a bigoted legislation. Of course there is no evidence to this claim, yet it keeps popping up on the papers. The leftist liberals also wants us to believe, in fact to feel guilty, of potential economic 'fruits' that the eradication of 1913 will have for the state. The 1913 law was upheld as constitutional by the Massachusetts Supreme Court in 2006.

The bill now goes to the House of Representatives where it promises to be a fierce battle. I am particularly interested on how the Springfield delegation is going to vote on this issue. We have seen our stellar representatives Ben Swan and Cheryl Coakley Rivera continuously denying the people the opportunity to be heard on State issues. As evident in their vote against the referendum question to allow the people to decide in the definition of marriage. As I have said before, this is our government and we the voters have the ultimate say !!! The people must be allow to vote on such an important social issue. The attempt to eradicate the 1913 is just another attempt by a reckless house of representatives into silencing the people from being heard.
