Don’t like being forced to pay special benefits to gay couples? Congress says, “That’s too bad.”

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

“The Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act of 2009” (DPBO 2009).
That has a ring of finality doesn’t it? Well it had better not and we’ve got to step up and fight this bill.

Know as H.R. 2517 it says “We’re ramming our hand into your pocket and whether you like it or not over the next ten years you’ll be paying about a $billion to make sure that homosexual federal employees and their housemates are taken care of as an especially privileged group.”

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) said the costs of giving homosexual “partners” of active and retired federal employees, healthcare and other employment benefits would mean increased spending of $596 million with discretionary spending adding another $302 million from now until 2019. Considering that the CBO is consistently wrong in its projections this boondoggle will cost an extra one billion dollars or more.

Here’s what else you will be ordered to pay for

Because these homosexual couples will be able to make believe they are married, in circumvention of the provisions of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), openly gay Wisconsin Democrat Tammy Baldwin’s bill will provide survivor annuities, compensation for work related injuries and travel and relocation benefits.
As usual, the advocates of this special treatment ignore the fact that having a sexual desire for members of one’s own gender does not equate to the obligations of raising a family and being its breadwinner, which has always been the purpose of the federal regulations being destroyed by this bill.

The CBO estimates the Post Office alone would have about 2000 current employees and 1100 retirees demanding to be reclassified from an individual insurance coverage plan to a “family” plan.
The bill is awaiting action by Congress, but Obama has indicated he would sign it.

Just the beginning

This is yet another “camel’s nose under the tent.” When this passes it will be the beginning of a chain of events that will first see a few liberal Democrat states following the federal government’s lead on this legislation, and end with a federal law mandating all states and local governments to do the same.
We have to keep an eye on this bill. Remember it and ask your Congressional Representative where he/she stands on HR 2517 “The Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act of 2009” (DPBO 2009).

This is your money and your family’s future. If you don’t act who will?

What did you do to protect American freedoms yesterday, what will you do today and tomorrow?
