good read.

Governor Romney stands head an shoulders among GOP presidential frontrunners on this issue and could provide the true leadership that is necessary to get the MPA through on the next time around.

If Romney sticks by this, it will be a first. He always buckles.

Attaching the word marriage to the association of same-sex individuals mistakenly presumes that marriage is principally a matter of adult benefits and adult rights. In fact, marriage is principally about the nurturing and development of children. And the successful development of children is critical to the preservation and success of our nation.

Right on the money.

I would add "procreation," but that might be in there.

"While the GOP glitterocracy attended the first gay wedding of one of their own"

What is that referring to?

"But the debate over same-sex marriage is not a debate over tolerance. It is a debate about the purpose of the institution of marriage.

This should be in big bold letters....maybe tattooed on the behinds of people like Harry Reid who insist its legalizing "pwejoodice".

Hey, if its a state's issue, like the naysayers are saying, pass the ammendment and let the states decide.

Nice try, Mitt.

But, if memory serves, your record as the governor of Massachusetts reveals you're anything but conservative.

You can try to move to the right for a presidential run, but it won't work. Iowa Republicans won't be fooled.

The GOP is in big trouble, if this is what they think the voters want.

They are in trouble because they have lost the 'Contract with America' political conservatives who gave Rs the majority in the first place. The folks who want govt accountability, smaller govt, strong defense and border security, etc.

The whole problem is, the R party has become 'Socially conservative, politically liberal'.

Like this issue.

Lower spending? Nope. Strong border security? Nope. Social engineering to discriminate against people we don't like?

Yep.

This issue is chasing the political Cs away even faster. Yet these idiots are convinced it's what will give them support.

*Sigh*.

I can't vote R this fall, now. After immigration and now this???

The party I voted for in '94 has become the party I voted *against* in '94.

Marriage is about kids.. the husband and wife are meaningless.. Queers can't have kids.. except by adopting kids of non queers.. unless a queer marrys a non queer and has some kids..

Being a queer is about sex not about kids.. sometimes queering is about haveing sex WITH kids.. Queer marriage is about insurance..
