    Default N.C. Gay Marriage Amendment Moves Ahead

    ...The N.C. House [today] passed a bill to allow voters to decide in the May primary whether to ban gay marriage in the state Constitution.

    And my friend Dale Folwell is leading the charge by exposing the lies:

    Founder and CEO of Replacements, Ltd, Bob Page is openly gay and offers same sex benefits to his workers.

    He and his partner have been together for 22 years and adopted twin boys from Vietnam 11 years ago.

    He believes an amendment could keep other businesses from locating here.

    "Corporate America I think is far ahead of the curve as far as rights for gay people as compared to our politicians and especially our politicians here in North Carolina," stated Page.

    Republican and House Pro-tempore Dale Folwell said the ban or law in NC has been around for nearly 16 years. He added, if it has not deterred businesses from locating in our state, neither would an amendment.

    Agreed ... in California, the people deciding is HOW the courts get involved. Most of those posessed of a given agenda only want the people to decide IF they decide in the preferred manner. If they decide against the agenda, a lawsuit is the very next step (usually, the very next day).
