It must be that time of year for homosexual news.

Here we go again.

There is a cable TV network named A&E which stands for “Anus & Entertainment” from what I can determine, and they have a problem with a guy who has a very popular show they sell to the public. It is a family show.

Now what in the world A&E thought they were doing when they sold this program is beyond me. Maybe they thought it would make the duck hunters who star in the series look like hayseeds. That blew up in their faces when the show started gathering about nine million viewers a week.

Then, as could be predicted, a star of the show said something he believes. The network has a big problem on their hands, it was perceived as anti-homosexual.

On Christmas Eve, it will be three years and nine months since President Barack Obama signed the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, into law.

Seven decades ago, it took less time — 3 years, 8 months and 26 days, from December 7, 1941, to September 2, 1945— for the nation to endure the attack on Pearl Harbor, rebuild an undermanned and underequipped military, put the nation’s industrial might on a wartime footing, prosecute World War II, complete the Manhattan Project, and force the surrender of Nazi Germany and Japan.

The State has a very necessary role in marriage.  A task tied directly to the reason behind the existence of the state in the first place.

Let us begin with this.  Why do states, or more generally speaking, governments exist at all?  Government’s are created to tap into the benefit of mutual self-interest.  They exist to allow for a militia of like minded individuals to protect and defend natural rights.  The most important of these natural rights are the right to personal liberty and property and to act in defense of your person and property.

The American government, and that of its several states, exist to defend the shared interest in these (and other) individual rights.

So what about the state’s interest in marriage?

From a Reader:  NH Senator Kelly Ayotte’s response regarding the “Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013.  Note the bits about veterans benefits cuts and then read what I posted here yesterday re; Jeanne Shaheen.
Dear Mr xxxxxx:

Thank you for contacting me regarding the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013
(H.J. Res. 59). I appreciate hearing from you.

On December 18, the Senate passed a budget proposal that includes a
framework for spending levels through the end of Fiscal Year 2015 and
some relief from indiscriminate sequestration cuts. I want nothing more
than for Congress to pass a responsible budget for our nation that
provides fiscal certainty and offers some relief from sequestration to
restore our military readiness. While I appreciate the work of House
Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Senate Budget Committee
Chairman Patty Murray (D-WA), I could not support the legislation as
written because it fails to address the biggest drivers of our nation’s
skyrocketing debt and instead unfairly singles out military retirees by
cutting their hard-earned retirement benefits by $6 billion — including
disabled veterans who retire because of their injuries. In other words,
this deal is achieved on the backs of our military men and women who
have put their lives on the line to defend our nation.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” —First Amendment of the United States Constitution

“Or the right of the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

The U.S. Supreme Court recognized the importance of this freedom in the 1937 case De Jonge v. State of Oregon, writing that “the right to peaceable  

As this Obamacare nightmare has been rolled out, it has been very hard to not see how limited coverages have become – doctor access limited, hospital access limited, and choice of the plans themselves have been very limited.  In fact, here in NH, only one insurer has actually been approved (although another one may be entering).  However, they are also limited to geography – while many comparisons have been made between the States, little has been brought up that the costs and the coverage of plans can also be limited to a given county resulting in even lesser coverage.

County level coverage – an unintended consequence (or was it? Or yet another “hemming in” tactic for Sustainable Communities Initiative where one of the desired outcomes is a restriction of travel options)  is the lack the ability to easily move your domicile; move too far and while you might enjoy your new digs, you might not be enjoying your current healthplan.  And then I saw this over at American Thinker (reformatted, emphasis mine):

ObamaCare May Devastate the Real Estate and Travel Industries
