Twenty-two gay and lesbian rights groups, smarting in the aftermath of the November election and bracing for President Bush's second inaugural, issued a unity statement Wednesday insisting they are not backing off marriage equality but will simultaneously push for other "common priorities."

Ah. Experimenting with new positions are they?

EXCERPT:

Matt Foreman, executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, said lesbians and gays face as many as 15 new state constitutional amendments, as well as a renewed push for an amendment in the U.S. Constitution to ban same-sex marriage.

An effort last year failed to get even a Senate majority, though it requires two-thirds approval, but advocates say they'll renew their effort. Religious conservatives said the Federal Marriage Amendment remains a priority.

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, a conservative group leading the fight against same-sex marriage, said, "I certainly would agree with their assessment that not all is lost for them. That's why it remains critical to get an amendment to the U.S. Constitution. They are certainly holding out great hopes that it is just a matter of time before a federal judge overturns a state constitutional amendment or the federal Defense of Marriage Act."

Perkins said gay activists "realize that their initiatives are out of sync with the American people, so they're going to try to put a different spin on their approach."



15 new amendments! WHICH STATES!

Also notice how homosexuals are still using the same old lies about inheritance and property. All easily done with standard, cheep, and easly obtained forms. The pink swastika is recomended reading in this battle. It is as if the homosexual advocate groups are following Hitler's game plane to the letter. (down to the GSA clubs in school being the equal of the Brownshirt feeding ground of homo-predators under the eyes fo the parents.)
