Get ready for gay marriage to lose in Colorado as it gets voted on. It always loses because the people don't want it and the consitution doesn't cover it.

Originally Posted By Charliedontsurf As for "What's Love Got to Do With It I didn't care for it too much. Coal Miners Daughter was far superior. Come to think of it, so was The Buddy Holly Story. Actually Walk the Line was decent but I didn't see Ray. Loved Spacey as Bobbie Darren though.

This November there's a referendum on the Tennessee ballot to ban same-sex marriage - I am voting for it." Vote for Harold Ford Jr.
