As Mitt Romney prepares for his second presidential campaign and gay marriage threatens to undermine Americas Judeo-Christian culture, theres a raging debate about the role he played in instituting gay marriage in Massachusetts during his gubernatorial term. This is important because Governor Romney has positioned himself as a champion of traditional values and claims to have been an opponent of homosexual marriage his entire career.
When the Massachusetts Supreme Court issued a decision in favor of homosexual marriage, the Goodridge case Romney unilaterally ordered his state agencies to implement homosexual marriage in Massachusetts. The court did not order him to do this nor had the legislature codified this ruling. Combined with a promise by President Obama to repeal the federal Defense of Marriage Act, this action by Romney has led significantly contributed to the spread of homosexual marriage nationwide.
Make no mistake; Romneys action was utterly illegal. In four different parts of the Massachusetts Constitution, it is clearly stated that only the legislature can change laws and one section specifically states that the marriage statutes are determined by the legislature, not by the courts. Even the Supreme Court itself stated that it could not order the legislature to act. All Romney had to do was to declare the court had no authority to enforce its unconstitutional opinion and ignore its decision.
But instead of doing that, Romney abruptly claimed the court opinion was now the law of the land and ordered his Town Clerks and Justices of the Peace to marry homosexuals even though the legislature never acted to codify the ruling. Indeed, according to a Fox News/AP story, the attorney for the homosexual plaintiffs in Goodridge, held the view that the legislature would have to codify the Goodridge ruling:

You ignored my question. Do you know who owns the private domain registered website that you keep posting from? And if not, maybe you should find out before you use it as a source, that is the way it used to work. You know because maybe someone that place might be mixing opinion with fact.
Looks like Romney's already practiced hwo to bypass checks and balances. Yet people seem to imagine "others" in Congress wil push him to their thinking?
He has a focused agenda and it's nothing to do with our nations people..but his own.
MittWits have already compromised God, in order to fulfill their illusion of getting rid of Obama.

This is truly a sign of the end times. You can’t even vote
for a lessor of two evils.
Insane. BHO is a Herod, we know already. Lying Romney
pretends to be whatever you wish to get elected. Foolish
people are falling for it.
I will not vote for Romney, he has not shown he is for life, just the opposite. He is pro-gay, pro-sodomy.
“If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures.”......Alexander Hamilton
Exactly! Love it!
Only the damned fools who profess to be conservatives yet have convinced themselves they're doing something good by voting for Romney.
I am referring to the website that you posted at the top of this thread. www.romneyexposed.com. It is not my job to explain Romney’s past, but if you are going to use sources that hide who is funding them, I won’t bother to read them either. Some of what you say about Romney is true, some is exaggerated, but we all know what Obama is, and that Romney is probably going to be the nominee. Everyone on here has read your threads a thousand times, and some of us knew in 2007 what Romney is. But unless you have an alternative that has a chance to compete, continuing to post the same things a thousand times just makes people ignore what you post. You know, one of these times you might have some new information, and noone will even read it, I’m sure you know about the boy who cried wolf, right?
“Smart move why go to the polls at all, just stay home.”
That is tempting, and would be the first such temptation since Ford-Carter in 1976, but there is no way I would miss the opportunity to vote against not just one, but TWO fathers of state sponsored abortion at the same time! How cool is that? It is like rolling a grenade under a table where both Heinrich Himmler and Lavrenti Beria are seated together. BOOM!
There is no way I am going to miss the party.
You must know how to use Google.com, right. Much of the so called “facts” on that website are taken out of context.Find the answers for yourself. They are available on legitimate websites that don’t hide behind hidden ips. And you still haven’t told me if you know who funds www.romneyexposed.com. Do you or not? And I don’t know if you read what you are responding to, but I will repeat myself, I don’t know if I will vote for Romney or not, but I will not help reelect the American hater in the White House.
Where do you you find that information? Have you ever seen that information posted on a website? Do you expect to see George Soros name as the registered owner of the website?
Or is it that it annoys you that your boy Romney's record is being exposed on a regular basis on FreeRepublic?
I'll vote for Door #3, Monty!

Do you see how they have hidden the sites owners? Now why would they do that, do you think?
Fine, - so what's your plan?
