I am saying in your big, long post, with your big colorful flyer, you are focusing on irrelevant minutiae. He was also endorsed by numerous pro-life and pro-family groups as well. The more important thing is what he actually DID to further pro-family causes (see letter above) which in no way advanced the homosexual agenda --- if that is what you were trying to imply.
Mitt has always opposed same-sex marriage. He diligently lobbied Congress in favor of a Federal Marriage Amendment (FMA) to the U.S. Constitution defining marriage to be between one man and one woman.
Mitt testified before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on the Federal Marriage Amendment, and sent a letter to all 100 U.S. Senators on June 2, 2006 asking them to vote for the Amendment. John McCain, Rudy Giuliani and Fred Thompson oppose the FMA.
Institute For Marriage and Public Policy President Maggie Gallagher, writing for National Review Online, wrote that the Governor's testimony on the issue before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee was "the single most eloquent and articulate defense of our traditional understanding of marriage I have heard from an American politician." (Maggie Gallagher, "In Defense Of The Family," National Review Online, 6/25/2004)
Governor Romney: "Some argue that our principles of federalism and local control require us to leave the issue of same sex marriage to the states—which means, as a practical matter, to state courts. Such an argument denies the realities of modern life and would create a chaotic patchwork of inconsistent laws throughout the country. Marriage is not just an activity or practice which is confined to the border of any one state. It is a status that is carried from state to state. Because of this, and because Americans conduct their financial and legal lives in a united country bound by interstate institutions, a national definition of marriage is necessary." ("The Importance of Protecting Marriage", Letter from Gov. Romney to U.S. Senators, 6/02/2006)
Governor Romney: "A lot of people get confused that gay marriage is about treating gay people the same as treating heterosexual people, and that's not the issue involved here." "This is about the development and nurturing of children. Marriage is primarily an institution to help develop children, and children's development, I believe, is greatly enhanced by access to a mom and a dad."
You are getting hung up on irrelevant things from 8 and 14 years ago while ignoring the real experience and insight Romney gained by fighting the liberals in Massachusetts and promoting conservative values the whole way. He was not the same person before and after his governship. It's clear he learned a lot about judicial abuses and the liberal agenda. If anything, he is now the most prepared to battle the dems in Washington having survived the battles in the bluest state.
You missed the entire point of the Log Cabin Republican Endorsement.
