Comments on: Minnesota to recognize same-sex couples unless Pawlenty vetoes http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2010/05/12/22575 News, analysis and fact-checking of anti-gay rhetoric Wed, 19 Jun 2013 14:37:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: John http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2010/05/12/22575/comment-page-1#comment-68349 John Thu, 13 May 2010 00:41:44 +0000 http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/?p=22575#comment-68349 That's very strange, I was just in the Minnesota state capital today (for a tour) and had no idea that this was going on. No gay rights bills are going to pass in Minnesota while Pawlenty is in office, unfortunately. Hopefully democrats can keep their majority in the legislature this coming year. I think its possible for a domestic parners bill similar to Washington's or California's to pass. I'm sure that a definite majority of Minnesotans support DP's.

He wants to run for President in 2010, and intends to base his campaign in large part on his christianist values. Hence, if you haven't noticed, he's moved farther and farther to the right in the past year or so. Of course Pawlenty will veto this.

He is a totally amoral scumsucker who Minnesotans will be glad to see the back of once he's gone.
