Liberals are caught in an unwinnable situation here and Huck is close to the winning formula. Then again, he may be baiting liberals into saying that they support accomodating consenting adults - be they polygamists or homosexuals. Conservatives should use the following against those who advocate for legalizing same sex marriage:

If liberals say that they want marriage to be redefined to allow for the legalization of same sex marriage, that they want marriage equality for consenting adult homosexuals and that consenting adults should be allowed to marry based upon love, and then turn around and say that they don't want marriage to also be redefined to allow polygamous marriage, that they aren't for marriage equality for polygamists (just for homosexuals) and that marriage should be based upon love for homosexuals but not for polygamists then they show themselves to be hypocrites. And they also lose that valuable weapon of calling others bigots because they show themselves to be bigoted against polgamy.

BUT, for liberals to avoid being tagged as bigots (as well as being hypocrites) then they would have to say that they support the legalization of polygamy as well - which would undermine the push for same sex marriage being legalized. Two front war.

The third front liberals open up on themselves when they bring up the Bible somehow supporting polygamy. Jesus never supported polygamy. He quoted Genesis which says that marriage was meant from the beginning to between one man and one woman. And there are NO scriptures which condone same sex marriage.

Let consenting adults do what they want behind closed doors, but don’t ask society to accept it.

the effort to allow gays and lesbians to marry is comparable to legalizing incest, polygamy and drug use...

...and rape, and pedophilia, and sex slavery, and bestiality, and necrophilia, and whatever else anyone thinks they may "need" in order to "feel" fulfilled.

I make this argument all the time. It drives the gays apoplectic because there is no effective rebuttal for it except to say, “You are mean.”
