I morally object to homosexuality but if it means having to choose between the lesser of two evils, I say allow civil unions rather than allow these fairies to coopt the Holy Sacrament of Matrimony.
You totally misunderstand. Do you remember when they claimed all they wanted was to be left alone? I do. They want a LOT more than that.
I am so tired of this.
Lesser of two evils .... lesser of two evils .... lesser of two evils ..... the mating cry of the RiNO Wing of the GOP.
It's like the fork move in chess. Make the other guy give up something valuable at no cost to yourself -- and Republican homosexuals are the ones doing this, from inside the RNC.
It's about time conservatives realized they have a RiNO problem of the first order, and that the "economic conservatives" mean to throw every baby ever born out with the bath water. They will capitulate every moral issue, every social-conservative issue of any dimensions at all, in order to generate more tax compromises with the Democrats, and to drive conservatives out of politics.
That is what is going on here: while conservatives fight to defend marriage, the Log Cabins and GOProud crowd are trying to undermine conservatism fatally until there's nothing left to fight for, and conservatives drop out of politics altogether.
Homosexual activists over the years have stated that the main reason they want “gay marriage” is to destroy the meaning of marriage and family and change society.
I have a bunch of quotes that I have to find today and post on this thread.
Their goal is utter dominance and utter destruction.
As conservatives, we cannot frame this as a religious or moral issue. Homosexual marriage/civil unions can be easily and logically dismissed by noting that such arrangements DENY CHILDREN THE BENEFIT OF BEING RAISED BY EITHER THEIR MOTHER OR FATHER.
Empirical evidence tells us that children raised in the ‘hood without a father suffer far greater incarceration rates, etc. Why would we purposely advocate marriage/civil unions where one of the two biologically designed nurturers was specifically required to be absent??
