To Mitt Romney, "sexual preference" is equal to ethnicity or FAITH.

He thinks we need "an outpouring of tolerance."

He also manages, as is his wont, to take both sides of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy in one breath.


Mitt Romney:

"I think General Pace has said that he regrets having said that, and I think he was wise to have issued an apology, or a withdrawal of that comment. I think that we, as a society, welcome people of all differences, whether there are differences in ethnicity, faith or sexual preference, and I think he was wise to correct his comment and to suggest that that was an inappropriate point to have made."

Wouldn't change it now...

"Another Republican candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who has been criticized for changing his views on gay rights to conform with conservative views, said he thought Pace's comments were 'inappropriate for public discourse.' 'He can believe what he wants to, that's the great thing about America, believe in what you want, but in a governmental setting, the right way to go is to show more of an outpouring of tolerance,' Romney said on CNN's Larry King Live. He said he didn't think the 'don't ask, don't tell policy' made a lot of sense, but added he wouldn't change it now."
