I told you so

It is only a matter of time before the slippery slope is embarked upon. If you warp the definition of marriage to include homosexuals because you should not stop people who love each other from being allowed to marry then where does it stop?

I have said for a long time that the talking points from the pro-gay marriage can easily be used for polygamy, incestual relationships and any other type of union that you can think of.

The pro-gay marriage group contends that there is no way. People are not advocating for polygamy, etc. and thus it is stupid to say those would even want to be allowed to marry.

Well, in the trail that gays used to normalize gayhood through Will & Grace, Ellen and other Hollywood vehicles we have this from Newsweek:

Bill Henrickson (Bill Paxton) pops a lot of Viagra. A lot, as in one every day, which he pulls from a bottle he keeps in his pants pocket. That seems like a heap of thrill pills for a happy, healthy, fortysomething married man. The problem isn't his libido—this isn't a supply problem. It's a demand problem. Bill is a polygamist with three wives: Barbara (Jeanne Tripplehorn), Nicki (Chloe Sevigny) and Margene (Ginnifer Goodwin). They live in adjacent houses with a common backyard, so Bill's on a regular rotation—one night Barb, the next night Nicki, the next Margene. He's like the only batter on a baseball team, and he's expected to hit a home run every night.

The Henricksons are the main characters in a show called, appropriately enough, "Big Love," which debuts in March on HBO. The network's biggest dramas have all focused on unorthodox families, from mobsters to undertakers. But polygamy? "In my career, I've pretty much seen it all, but I can honestly say I've never seen anything on a polygamous family," says Tripplehorn. Though she was intrigued by the concept, Tripplehorn wasn't sure she could handle it. "I had a hard time finding a connection as to why a woman would share her husband. I didn't think I was up to the task. I didn't think I could make it real."

And do not try to fool yourself into thinking that this anything beyond an effort to normalize the next assault on marriage.

"It's everything that every family faces, just times three," says co-creator Mark Olsen. "The yuck factor disappears and you just see human faces. We found it to be a mother lode."

And on top of all that, it's taboo. Mormons are extremely sensitive about being associated with polygamy, and HBO is considering a prologue explaining that the Mormon Church disavowed the practice in 1890. Controversy, of course, never hurts in Hollywood. "People really need to see it before they make an opinion," Tripplehorn says of the family in question. "You can't help but be fascinated by how they do this. It's an incredible feat of organization. How does he keep it up?" And on so little sleep!

Now two things here.

First, the next step in the assualt on family AND on marriage has begun. Why? Because the pro-gay supporters realized they need to add more people to their militant ranks in their attack on marriage. Who best to do this? Hollywood. They have advanced the gay troops far enough in attacking marriage that the exposure of polygamists (and the inclusion of them) is acceptable now.

Second, the gay marriage crowd has been highly disingenuous in the whole debate. They should have acknowledged the fact that their talking points could be applied to polygamists, intra-familial couples, animal lovers, etc and dealt with that. Instead they tried to get their assault on marriage completed hoping to keep secret the truth. The truth that pro-gay marriage talking points are the exact same that can be used by every other combination. They have always known that, they just would not admit it because they know the mainstream would not tolerate that reality to occur.

Liars.

And I told you so.
