Ellen DeGeneres needles McCain on gay marriage
NPR ^ | May 21 08

Posted on 05/21/2008 9:20:48 PM PDT by camerakid400

WASHINGTON May 21, 2008, 11:25 pm ET

Republican John McCain says same-sex couples should be allowed to enter into legal agreements for insurance and other purposes, but he opposes gay marriage and believes in "the unique status of marriage between and man and a woman."

"And I know that we have a respectful disagreement on that issue," the likely Republican presidential nominee said in an interview to air Thursday on "The Ellen DeGeneres show."

Why is he going on the Ellen Degenerate Show? Anyone running for President should stay off these idiotic talk shows.

NcCain is a complete dolt. He must truly believe that these media types like him.

Goes on the Ellen DeGeneres show? Total idiot; laughingstock.

We'll see if Ellen DeGeneres is such a big fan of gay marriage after she marries Portia Rossi, and then, some time after that, Portia sues for divorce and demands half of Ellen's estate. That will be an occasion for some serious Schadenfreude...

Sure she disagrees, but can she provide any reasoning for HER point of view, other than her feelings about the matter?

The definition of the word ‘marriage’ has always been...the union of a man and a woman. The Liberals will not stop until they have obliterated every standard that underpins our culture. I do hope that we won’t end up going the way of the Romans.

I think she has a point:
why give gay couples all the legal perks married people have, but deny them the term “marriage”.

Gay couples shouldn’t get any legal perks married people get. Period.

There's great reporting, of national significance, from “NPR” (National Party of Reprobates). The great Republican victories of 1994 and 2000 were supposed to wrest us of these leftist entanglements. Piss on them all.

McCain on Ellen's talk show? This election cycle just keeps getting weirder and weirder.

This is very discouraging. I was starting to like Ellen again because she has started to put aside her gay-rights views and returned to being a funny gal. I remember when she first came out in the mid-1990s she was hilarious on her own show. Then the gay thing hit her, and she had to make an agenda out of everything. But she kind of redeemed herself in “Finding Nemo.”

“Gee, do you think that Obama will appear on the Rush Limbaugh show?”

95% of the media is firmly in his corner, and apparently although he is rather ignorant about almost everything, he is not as stupid as McMedia to walk into enemy territory.

Besides DeGeneres is mainstream America these days, while Rush is a hateful, far-right extremist....and in that world, I am from Mars....

I really liked Ellen’s show in the 90’s, until she began to use it to promote the gay agenda, agreed. Ever since, Ellen hasn’t been as funny to me. She may be a bit more subdued about it now, but she will never stop pushing that agenda.

John thinks appearing on such programs makes him “cool,” when in actuality, it demeans the office of the presidency.
