Today our President made it clear that it was his personal opinion that LGBTs should be permitted marriage.  He seems to have evolved this opinion by realizing that all citizens should have equal rights not to be determined by one group's religious beliefs.  It saddens me that the courts are so bloated that it is unlikely that all the cases fighting for equal rights will not get to see their law suits heard before the election.  This touches the number of voters who will be able to cast their votes.  There seems to be no way the Republicans will allow fairness or adherence to the rights of voters. Mayor Cory Booker of Newark, NJ spoke brilliantly that the issue is not an LGBT issue nor are there racial issues of discrimination.  It is about adhering to the fourteenth amendment making American citizens' equal.

Our politicians are ignoring all rules of conduct and proper procedure of their office.  When Boehner let a religious group use Statuary Hall , he violated the proper usage for that venue.  We taxpayers are expected to pay for the Hall that allowed a speaker who tells the group that AIDS was given us as punishment for the sinful choices of homosexuals.

Why is there no action on a Federal level for the violations of the separation of church and state when elected officials of the legislature denies such a constitution requirement exists. If our elected representatives (which I take means to represent their constituents) are defying the wishes of their majority, they should be impeached..If they believe that employees not doing their jobs should be fired, they too should expect the same treatment.
