The Greens and also the independents, not Bob Katter (the mad homophobic bigot who said the stupid “Bourke comment”) are our best allies and good friends – unlike the bigoted and homophobic Labor and Liberal parties that are run and funded by influential church power, the Christian-Taliban and the happy clappers at Hillsong!!!!

VOTE 1 for the Greens and the independents (not Bob Katter mind you)!!!!

When the Australian Senate gets 9 Greens members and really controls the balance of power from 1 July 2011, they must make a deal with Labor:

“The Greens will vote to approve your proposed minority-government legislative bills on parliamentary budgets, health reform, airport and national security, broadband and on political donations with one condition – if you agree to a ‘conscientious’ vote on the same sex marriage bill that the Greens member Sarah Hanson-Young’s introduced!”

That should get the political, economic, social and media ball rolling!!!!

I know your evangelical spin on the Greens. Unite the flock in fear. We all have an enemy people, head for the hills!! But we are educated. We do not seek to be oppressed and denied basic human rights and freedoms. We do not want Labor to take advice from the Klu Klux klan on people who are not white or the Australian Christian Lobby on GLBTQI issues. The facts are the Labor and Liberal Party love the Greens and want them to have power. You have to call the leaders of these parties as they are giving votes to the Greens on a silver plate. Labor and Liberal Love the Greens. They even preference them as number 2 above each other.

The Real threat is the Liberal Party that moved aside terrorist legislation to stop Same-Sex Marriage. A man strapped with bombs on a Sydney train is less of a threat according to Gav then us. Well I know I would rather be on a train with a loving Same-Sex couple then some lunatic with bomb.

I would like to ask Gave why Lunatic Liberals reduced doctors training, resulting in the greatest doctor shortage in recent history. Why the Lunatic Liberals apposed a fast Fiber optic network that would create more then a million jobs, and help deliver confidential health services to people in rural areas. Some country people who happen to from our community cannot access health services as they are run by religious people of hate. Why did the Lunatic Liberals not expel party members with links to religious hate groups? Why did the Liberal Party flood this country with people without giving all of us infrastructure? Why did the Liberal Party take us to war knowing the reason was a lie? Perhaps Gav you can sit down with families of our dead soldiers and tell them who the Lunatics are, or visit the Graves of the over hundred thousand children that died in Iraq?

Perhaps Gav you explain why Labor and Liberal think is ok to use tax payer money that we all pay to discriminate against other tax payers on the basis of race, sexuality, and gender. Church businesses such as hospitals and nursing homes have an exemption in the Federal Equal Opportunity Act to carry out acts of hate against our community.

Labor and Liberal almost broke Tasmania. Now we have a Greens coalition with Labor and we are seeing really positive policy that even logging communities agree with.

No Gav, the only Lunatics are in the Labor and Liberal Party. You should inform yourself better before you next start venting.

With a clear conscience, many family members & friends of gays can no longer vote for a major party that advocates 2nd class citizenship for a civil function – civil marriage.

Once discrimination is eliminated, then feel free to vote for the major parties again. The American civil war eventually got smoothed over & the Democrat party that supported slavery was eventually split in two & reformed into a progressive party. Labor can’t continue to have a foot in both camps before it splits at the seams.
fyi- Right Wing Labor Power Broker Mark Arbib has just come out today saying the same thing- “If I was the parent of a gay son or daughter I don’t know how I could tell them they didn’t have the same rights as I do”.
The Labor Party is now splitting at the seams- and only by continuing to vote Green in the short term until Labor implodes & reforms, will ensure the abolition of 2nd class citizenship.
