Or I guess, rather than this HotAir blog, you should watch the CNN interview interview it seems to be referring to. that’s where Paul expounded the position that’s basically the same as your post 21.
I’m sorry. I’d like to see him object to the interviewer’s use of the term “gay marriage” in the first place.
In my understanding of language - and the historical meaning of the word ‘marriage’ as it refers, in English, to a union between two human beings - it refers to heterosexual union.
He seems to be trying to sit on the fence; and that disinclines me to believe that he won’t sit there on other issues, as well, when it’s politically expedient.
(I’ll admit that I’m an idealist; and I despise politics. So, take my comments only for what they’re worth to you.)
