I think it time to put some chlorine in the Congressional Gene Pool and get rid of the scum.

Rep. Gerry Connolly

November 2, 2009

The Progressive Socialist Democrats are violating My and the Majority of Americans First Amendment Rights or our Civil Rights and their oath of office which is SOP for Democrats to lie and manipulate and try to discredit their adversaries through lies and fabrications of untrue facts. The whole reason for Marriage was for the protection of the family that the union between a man and woman that could produce offspring. There cannot be Offspring produced between a man and a man or between a woman and a woman, this is a biological fact. These people are not satisfied with domestic partner status that gives them every benefit that a marriage gives a man and woman, no they keep pressing their agenda against our religious beliefs and our Constitutional Rights. Maybe it time to define marriage in the US Constitution that it is only between a Man and a Woman, to get these handicapped Person off our backs, and I will say this to their faces as well, quit pushing as I am not backing up anymore. This is what {Progressive Socialist Democrats are all about special interest groups and undermining the Rights of the Majority of Americans and spreading immorality, such as present by that obese Representative Nader from New York. I think it time to put some chlorine in the Congressional Gene Pool and get rid of the scum.
