You aren't consistent. Human rights exist for everyone equally or they don't. All humans are entitled to form civil unions and it's none of anyone else's business. Heterosexual marriage outside of church is a civil union and the Supreme Court just REAFFIRMED that everyone has equal rights under the law. POWER TO THE PEOPLE as you sign this post seems to mean POWER TO THE PEOPLE WE THINK DESERVE IT. Can't you see the dichotomy of saying power to the people and then lobbing AGAINST giving everyone a free choice? Are you are still pandering that 'Consent of the Govern" nonsense?". It will never see a ballot. It's socialism. Really. Look up socialism.Follow me at http://drtom.posterous.com "When in danger, or in doubt - run in circles; scream and shout."

The Conservative Forum for Hawaii Regarding Civil Unions Bill:
Legitimacy of law, and it's moral basis, MUST lie with the consent of the governed. Always.
Major societal changes will be illegitimate without ALL citizens having an equal voice in giving their approval to such a societal restructuring, by referendum.
For this reason, the governor's veto of HB444 is correct: such a major societal change as requiring by law that our communities now value all sexual relationships as equivalent, that the traditional legal status and role given to heterosexual marriage since the first laws were ever written, can not be forced on to our communities by a few politicians alone, especially by less than open legislative practices as recently occurred in Hawaii.
Only by referendum should our communities and society be allowed to be restructured.
Power to the people, always.
The ends do not justify the means. aloha
