Just two years ago, supporting homosexual marriage was such an extreme, politically radioactive position that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton – both Alinskyite progressives and long-time gay-rights supporters – saw fit to publicly and repeatedly declare their opposition to same-sex marriage.
Today, as the homosexual newspaper the Washington Blade puts it, "conservatives have taken the leadership role in achieving marriage equality."
That's right. Not only have high-profile conservatives like Glenn Beck, "The View's" Elizabeth Hasselbeck, Laura Bush, Dick Cheney and many others publicly offered their ringing endorsement of men marrying men and women marrying women, but some on the right are, as the Blade reports, actually leading the charge.
Case in point: George W. Bush's solicitor general Ted Olson has been dedicating his time as one of the two lead attorneys who successfully challenged California's Proposition 8, which had enshrined in the state's constitution the fact that, as Hillary Clinton put it, "marriage is as a marriage always has been, between a man and a woman."
Indeed, proclaims the Blade, when it comes to the battle to legalize same-sex marriage, it is conservatives who "have achieved the most important success so far as they are the most willing and most able to take the case to the Supreme Court."
...
And S.E. Cupp, a young conservative Daily Caller columnist and frequent Fox pundit, goes so far as to say, "Conservatism and gay rights are actually natural allies. Conservatism rightly seeks to keep the government out of our private lives, and when you strip away the politics of pop culture, it's this assertion of privacy and freedom that the gay rights movement is essentially making."

Well, I found this interaction where I can assure you that I DID NOT agree with you:

If correcting your error is disagreeing than I was cetrainly guilty. Do you have the entire collection of our exchanges or just those in which I provided you information you did not already have?
Good catch.
Ooooooh!
What error?
You claimed to know from personal experience, then said that you’re not certain except for what a nurse told you.
That’s not personal experience.
You didn't correct an error, you repeated a homosexual talking point and provided no proof that it was valid.
Do you have the entire collection of our exchanges or just those in which I provided you information you did not already have?
Troll, YOU are the one that said I agreed with you, that makes it YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to verify it.
zot
I’ve never seen so many pro-homosexual agenda trolls in my life.
I knew we would smell ozone soon enough!
What brevity!
Well, OWK when he was around.
I’m still wondering which zotted troll he was.
I can’t believe all the agenda pushers since Prop 8 and the fairy judge. And they get very creative on pushing it. I’ve never seen such sneaky attacks.
OWK???
WHYYYYYYY do you HATE me? lol
