The AP tries to claim that interest in repealing SSM in Iowa is "flagging" -- just what the mainstream media wants us to believe about a heartland state ripe for restoring the true definition of marriage:
"...Iowa became the third of six states to legalize gay marriage after the state Supreme Court struck down the state ban in 2009. Since then about 4,500 gay couples have wed here.
Republicans can move to end gay marriage if they win two more seats in the state Senate this year, a goal that could be within reach. That would give them full control of the statehouse and the power to begin preparing a public referendum on the issue."
Just watch the video of our President Brian Brown addressing a rally of pro-marriage Iowans a few months ago:
They don't appear to be "flagging" to us!

Wishful thinking by the AP hacks. Here's your two-word answer to voter interest in protecting marriage: North Carolina.
Great job, Brian!
The AP hacks are nothing more than tools of the far left and are part of the liberal mainstream media. We must remember that the sodomites infiltrated these organizations years ago.
HA HA....what delusion.
This comment was moderated twice, so maybe it was too long. I'll sum it up.
Do you have any pictures / videos of the actual crowd? I'm sure you'd be the first to point out that if there's a rally of even a few hundred supporters of SSM in Louisiana, that doesn't change what the majority of the populace of the state believes. In light of that, it's at least plausible that your rally also doesn't reflect the wishes of Iowans in general, especially given the Des Moines Register's "Iowa Poll: Majority opposes ban on same-sex marriage". A 56% majority, actually.
Geez, talk about argumentum ad non sequitur.
Sick of the damn premeditated lies and deception. Defend traditional marriage!
To poster #4, if your side is convinced you are winning then why is your side doing everything it can to prevent the lawfull vote of the people.
@John N.
It may surprise you to hear this, but I am not responsible for the decisions of those on "my side". However, I live in Maine, the only state where SSM supporters have been the ones to submit a state vote on the legality of same-sex marriage. It's been four years since our narrow loss, and while we're not "convinced" by any means, we're hopeful.
John N, it helps them to dehumanize us, and lump us all together as one monolithic block. It's easier for them not to think of "our side" as real people.
John, the Constitution is NOT optional.
Brainwashed. All of you.
Never once have you been told not to vote. But responsibility comes with the right. None of you keep in mind that this country was not founded to serve any particular religious group or beliefs. It was founded to let each person choose their own belief system. If we created laws and changed the constitution to form one religion, where do the rights of the rest go? For if you can change one law to satisfy a religion, surely you can change others. I'll refer to one of your guys' favorite sayings...the slippery slope...
Marriage of a man and a woman is universal, marriage is what only we as humans do. We will not have you dehumanize it.
