Just to be clear, I didn't see anything on TV. I read it here. Look, you're doing what a lot of Romney supporters end up doing---struggling to justify voting for him. Vote for him if you want. That's fine, it's your decision. But please don't try to make him out to be anything except what he is, and that is a liberal who has a definite fondness for homosexuals. Only a leftist would think that sodomites have a RIGHT to adopt children. And, if there's any doubt he's personally in favor of it, here's what he said in June of 2007:

“There are other ways to raise kids that’s fine: single moms, grandparents raising kids, gay couples raising kids. That’s the American way, to have people have their freedom of choice."

Of course he backed away from it later, LOL---that's what he DOES. Any viewpoint he espouses is only valid until he decides it's politically expedient to flip.

Read The Real Romney. It's not a hit piece, it's very fairly written and, at times, admiring. But it shows how Romney went to great lengths in MA to cozy up to homosexuals, to let them know he was there to do what they needed, and to make sure they weren't "discriminated against."

I'm sick of having sodomites shoved down my throat, and I make no excuses for anyone who supports them.

It seems that back in 1994 Willard was for homosexuals agopting and now in May of this year he still wants tthe same thing....

In an interview with Neil Cavuto of Fox Business Network, Romney was asked whether he believes the gay marriage debate is a new civil rights movement, as some Democrats have framed the issue.

“I don’t see it in that light,” Romney responded. “I believe my record as a person who has supported civil rights is strong and powerful. At the same time, I believe that marriage has been defined the same way for literally thousands of years by virtually every civilization in history and that marriage is by its definition a relationship between a man and woman.”

He added that “if two people of the same gender want to live together, want to have a loving relationship, even want to adopt a child — in my state, individuals of the same sex are able to adopt children. In my view, that’s something which people have the right to do, but to call that marriage is, in my view, a departure from the real meaning of the word.”

Romney has made similar statements in the past. In 2006, as governor of Massachusetts, Romney told the Boston Globe that same-sex couples have “a legitimate interest in being able to receive adoptive services.” In 1994, he told the Boston Herald, “I would leave it [gay adoption] up to the states. I would not oppose it or require it.”
