Marriage advocates descend on parliament
While most federal MPs will have their focus firmly fixed on the Gillard Government鈥檚 carbon price legislation today, a group of 60 people will meet with a range of MPs in Canberra today to call for marriage equality.
The push has been organised by lobby group the Australian Marriage Equality.
The group of same-sex marriage advocates are set to speak with more than 40 MPs from both sides of the house, including cabinet ministers and senior opposition representatives.
AME national convenor Alex Greenwich said it鈥檚 time for Australian laws allow same-sex couples to marry.
鈥淢arriage equality is about treating everybody and every family equally,鈥� Greenwich said.
鈥淎ll Australians should have the right to marry their soulmate and the opportunity to express their love and commitment to that person as part of a marriage ceremony.
鈥淭oday, we hope to encourage our federal decision-makers to support positive social reform that will change the lives of so many ordinary Australian鈥檚 and afford many the same rights as their friends and family.鈥�
I could start by saying this is welcome news, and the Liberal/National party will have a heart. But there is the blinding glare of reality.
Talking to Tony Abbott is a bit like asking Hitler to think of the living conditions in the camps. I am sure both men would smile. Oh well shit happens I guess鈥�.
Abbott is Nazi Light, he seeks to make the birth of some Australians a punishment and uses religion to back himself up like the Nazi Bishops did, and believes in a master race of heterosexual people, much like Hitler believed in the Aryan race as being superior by birth. The Federal Liberal/National Party is just the upgrade version, the 2.0 model. This is the new improved operating system with fewer bugs.
If the Liberal/National party cannot even include people in the Federal Equal Opportunity Act, then Marriage Equality is like asking Hitler to give more food to people in the camps. This a party who does not believe in basic Civil Rights, a party who believes they are superior by bith to other Australians.

Asking the Devil to show kindness is a nobble idea I guess鈥︹��.
