Well now, Manny Pacquiao has now spoken out against Obama.
http://sports.yahoo....-165741476.html
I have a few problems with this.
1. Why the fuck is a boxer in Congress?
2. Reading what he has to say, it's clear that he is just judgmentally quoting something he knows nothing about.
3. This is the biggest problem, who the fuck let him in congress?
The Philippines did, and if it makes you feel any better, he's kind of an asshole so his opinion is no better than Jerry Falwell or Jim Bakkar.
Edit: He represent Sarangani

But the fact that a boxer is part of Congress only makes me feel that we are one step closer to to becoming the movie Idiocracy
And I repeat

Congress is a joke.

The Philippines Congress might be, but for right now ours isn't, it is close to becoming one. We keep electing crazy assholes who say I will only compromise if I get 100% of what I want. To Indiana's new Tea Party darling Richard Mourdock. May he never be a Senator.

Pacquiao is a national hero in the Philippines and hearing his name on GMA & TFC all the time, I wasn't surprised to learn he represents a province in the Philippines.

but on topic:

Oh yeah, I also love it when they mention that marriage has always been between one man and one woman for 5000 years, thus meaning they are foolish and forgot Utah, and the United States's early years when our stance was one white man and one white woman.

No offence to anyone gay here, but I don't see anything natural in gay marriage.

You don't get to have children of your own, so it's basically just pointless.
To be fair, then women who can't get pregnant and men who are infertile are useless, and also shouldn't be allowed to marry either, they can't procreate, what purpose does their marriage serve?

That's something that naturally happened, homosexuality isn't natural. You're not getting my point here.

But that poses a greater question on people who marry and either don't want or can't have kids. Does that not make their marriage pointless?

Why do you feel it's not natural? I get your point, but it still doesn't make sense to me.

Because biologically, you don't get anything out of gay marriage.

Why do you feel it's not natural? I know what you are saying, but it still doesn't make much sense to use that as an argument.

But sooner or later, they will have kids. I've seen people with the same problem saying that they don't plan on having kids as apparently they're not ready for it, but as time passes, they'll have children.
I have seen too people who didn't want kids not have kids. The argument that marriage should be about procreation is flimsy at best.

Your original point was clearly "they can't have children, therefore it's not natural".
Now you're backpedaling and reverting to an even stupider argument of "homosexuality isn't natural/is a choice".

Please don't imply that smile72 isn't getting your point, because he did.

Whatever happened to happiness and love? Marriage is not about just having children.
I get what you are saying, it's just a flimsy weak argument.

Actually he didn't, what I've been trying to say is when a guy marries another guy, they don't get anything out of their marriage as in having children, forming a family etc.... They only get satisfaction out of it.

And if you got anything nicer to say, I'm welcome to comment on it, so let's stop the tough Internet acting on the Internet.

I understand that, but let's give it a deep thinking... Do you get to have children? Do you guys form a family that you care about? I know that you'll obviously look after each other.

Not trying to be offensive here, it's just my opinion.
