Riiiiiiiiiiight.............
Because he didn't. He said the freedom to do so is American, and he's right.
Mitt the used car salesman
just another used car saleman
What’s that whirring sound?
The distant report of Willard “Weatherboy” Romney reversing his position again.
There ya' go thinking again...
I would say this re-opens the debate on polygamy. I mean, it does, if polygamists only cohabited together minus an actual marriage. Then Mitt could add another comma to the above statement and say: "There are other ways to raise kids that's fine: single moms, grandparents raising kids, gay couples raising kids, cohabiting polygamists--as long as the extra wives remain unmarried--raising kids. Thats the American way, to have people have their freedom of choice."
So he thinks we should not intrude in peoples lives as long as children are not threatened, but he also thinks we should not change our laws about marriage?
Beside the misleading headline, Am I missing something here?
And hey, Mitt, why stop at couples? How about a gay college fraternity house raising kids? After all, we know your bottom line: Thats the American way, to have people have their freedom of choice.
Big tent Love.
Gay couples raising kids “the American way” according to Mitt. Hmm...Interested in your take
In an appearance Friday at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in Memphis, an important early event for presidential hopefuls, he reiterated his position that "Every child in America has the right to a mother and a father." link
"Some [same-sex couples] are actually having children born to them," Romney said.
"It's not right on paper; it's not right in fact," he said. "Every child has a right to a mother and a father."
There are other ways to raise kids thats fine: single moms, grandparents raising kids, gay couples raising kids. Thats the American way, to have people have their freedom of choice,
Oh please!
Here is the original article....
N.H. woman challenges Romney on gay marriage
June 6, 2007
CONCORD, N.H. —A New Hampshire woman, frustrated with Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney’s opposition to gay marriage, made a point Wednesday of telling him about her personal experience.
“I am a gay woman and I have children. Your comment that you just made, it sort of invalidates my family,” said Cynthia Fish, a mother of a 6- and 8-year-old. “... I wish you could explain to me more, why if we are sending our troops over to fight for liberty and justice for all throughout this country, why not for me? Why not for my family?”
Romney paused, asked Fish about her children and then praised her.
“Wonderful,” Romney said. “I’m delighted that you have a family and you’re happy with your family. That’s the American way. ... People can live their lives as they choose and children can be a great source of joy, as you know. And I welcome that.”
But then Romney repeated his view of marriage.
“Marriage is an institution which is designed to bring a man and woman together to raise a child and that the ideal setting for society at large is where there is a male and a female are associated with the development and nurturing a child,” Romney said.
The former Massachusetts governor acknowledged other scenarios that raise children.
“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,” he said
You guys are just Morman haters. He if by far the best candidate we have, and the fact that he’s Morman makes some of you guys so mad.
Better get used to it, because that MOR-MAN is going to be our next president.

Funny how the story changes when you include all of the facts and not just those that fit your agenda.
Romney is a FRAUD.
Sounds like ol’ Mitt just had his “jump the shark” moment
