Here’s what I never understand.
We’re told that homosexual marriage and “gay” issues in general are the civil rights battle of our time.
If this is the civil rights battle of our time, why are so few mainstream politicians on board supporting homosexual marriage?
In the civil rights movement of the ‘50s and ‘60s, many mainstream politicians, including many Republicans (which surprises liberals today, but facts are stubborn things), supported the civil rights movement, and Congress passed major civil rights laws.
But today, this liberal president is afraid to say he supports same-sex marriage.
During the civil rights movement, while there was stiff opposition, esp. among southern Democrats, many mainstream politicians were openly in support of the movement. But today’s movement for homosexual marriage does not have such support. In fact, given the silence, I’m sure many politicos wish the issue would go away.
While a liberal state such as New York may pass a law on homosexual marriage, where’s the leadership among liberals in Washington on this issue? Why are they afraid to proclaim their support, if this is the civil rights battle of this generation, and liberals tell us we want to be on the right side of history and all that???????
Excellent post!
I just want to add that the left is USING Black people, by pulling out the race card, and comparing homosexual “marriage” with interracial marriage, but yet the majority of Black people voted AGAINST same-sex “marriage” in CA.
Also, the video that NYer posted yesterday shows so many Black folks vehemently against homosexual “marriage,” including calling it an abomination!!!!
