LCR pushing the lie, “large part of the electorate”—for the benefit of less than 2 percent of the US population.

How about a headline like “God a difficult issue for Democratic White House hopefuls”?

[Reno89519]

What difficulty. Blunt answer is it is perverted. That can be state more politely but the answer should still be No. No recognition, no support, and no attendance. Civil unions are legit alternative and better choice than destroying the institution of marriage.

what's difficult about denouncing a sick, ridiculous union. Ten years from now, “republicans struggle with man/boy marriage issue”

[Bob434]

there’s nothing difficult about it- you either stand on your principles, and let the chips fall where they may, or you violate your principles, and betray the trust of those who elected you

Nothing complicated about that

Was it ‘difficult’ for shadrach meshach and Abednego to make the decision to stand on principles and obey God? Nope! For Daniel? Nope!

The media will do their best to try to get republicans squirm on gay marriage. the candidates should look reporters in the eye and say:

"My position on gay marriage is the same as Barack Obama's in 2008, and you folks seemed to think he was the greatest thing since sliced bread. So hold me to the same standard that you held him, ok?

You say he has "evolved"? No, he's changed (assuming he wasn't lying in the first place), and saying that "change" is "evolution" is just your bias, your spin, not anything factual.

I do not derive my basic moral values from you or the New York Times, but from the Judeo-Christian tradition on marriage that was acceptable to every Democratic president until the second term of Barack Obama and which is still held by many millions of Americans. Next question?"

” LCR pushing the lie, “large part of the electorate”—for the benefit of less than 2 percent of the US population. “

What happens when good men do nothing.

Time to call them on it -

“gay marriage” isn’t the issue. It’s just being used as the vanguard in the left’s war on Christians.

For Democratic politicians, same-sex marriage has become an easy issue: They’re for it.

Why should this be a difficult issue for anyone with morals? It is wrong. Period. It has no place in a nation of laws. It abandons our moral underpinnings and creates a fluid ethos that allows the justification of any behavior without consequence.

Mostly, it devalues the worth of human beings by rendering us just another mammal eternally in rut.

So why is it so difficult to Just Say No?

[greene66]

Only difficult for those too cowardly to stand up for their principles.

[Iron Munro]

Whatever they do the Gay agenda will continue to advance.

[hecticskeptic]

I know this won’t be everyone’s approach but here is what I say when asked about this…. The purpose for marriage is so that the intrinsic sexual nature of mankind can be realized in the only way that is God approved. So…. Do you that anal sex is a normative state of being and qualifies as being God approved?

Gay marriage a difficult issue for GOP White House hopefuls

Not really. If they want the votes from the Tea Party and the majority of Republican Party voters the only position is that homosexual marriage is not marriage.
