Republican Committee Quietly Rejects Anti-Gay Marriage Resolution
Time ^ | August 5, 2015 | Zeke J Miller

The Republican National Committee’s resolutions committee quietly rejected a pair of resolutions critical of homosexuality Wednesday.

The controversial resolutions dealing with sex education and same-sex marriage threatened to cast a shadow on the first GOP presidential debate Thursday in Cleveland, as the party looks toward expanding its base in the key swing state. According to a member of the committee, both failed to gain support to be recommended to the full 168-member party governing body on Friday.

I believe any more that the RNC is acting as a subsidiary of the DNC.

When you don’t fight for anything, you will stand for nothing.

The same thing is happening to the GOP-e on abortion. Meanwhile, both political parties are walking away from the populus who are no longer being represented.

The dnc sets the agenda, tone and pace. The rnc is now the enabler.

The GOP-e readily fights against conservatives and conservatism, so we know what they are standing for. And it’s not nothing.

Of course they are. But who is allowing the RNC to continue to exist?

Why ‘quietly’? oh yeah....I forgot, they are the ‘spineless sissies’ that have to hide in their ‘closets’....

If Time Magazine got wind of it, then it wasn’t done “quietly”, obviously.

Why else the creation of the epithet “Uniparty”?

That’s the only thing they could possibly be “spineless” about. It certainly isn’t that any of them are actually conservative in the beginning and then quailing in the face of their liberal (nominal) “opposition”.

I stopped being a Republican before Bush was elected. I do not associate with vacillating pansies nor give them money, votes, or respect.

At this point, there is little doubt in my mind that the GOP leadership is comprised primarily of faggots, perverts, and all-around degenerates.

Not that I believe there was any chance of these being included BUT IF the GOP truly cared about expanding their base they would have have enacted these rules, trumpeted it, and doubled down once the media outrage started.

But they're not interested in the expanding their base. They're interested in placating criticism.

I’ve suspected this for a while now, but I’m now officially a man without a Party.

I didn’t leave the Republican Party, the Republican Party left me.

Which means, of course, that I’ll vote Constitution Party again. There’s not a dime’s worth of difference between the dimmos and Repubs on moral issues. If, and only if, the Repubs declare in their platform that they’ll work to recriminalize abortion and homosexuality, then I’ll consider voting for them again.

People don’t think deeply anymore about these things. God is no mocked, yet we’re mocking Him more and more and more. We won’t get back into His good graces by continuing this embrace of disgusting behaviors He abhors. All that will get us is more and more wrath. So the moronic “lesser of two evils” vote for the Repub is just that. It won’t stop our slide into greater and greater wrath.

It’s only if we turn from our wickedness and seek His face that we will turn away His wrath. I won’t vote for any candidate that doesn’t guarantee he’ll fight for those very things.

I’m done with them. Since there’s nobody left to vote for, I guess I’m done with that too.
