Any conservative advocating a gay parenting ban, or any reproductive right ban, is NOT a conservative. In fact, a bill was introduced in either Maryland or Virginia (can't remember) that only married, straight couples, be allowed to seek assisted reproductive technologies, including the use of sperm donors. That should scare every single conservative to their core.

I agree, I also agree that I alone am the arbiter of whether I call myself Conservative or not. We had a bill in AZ that failed, they wanted to define what marriage is, and they made the mistake of discriminating against couples living together. Marriage is a concept based on a (historically) church based piece of paper.
