How much is everybody already sick of hearing this sh** over and over and over?
Methinks Mitt is sitting back and letting Barry-O do himself in. Mitt probably thinks the Prez needs no help...
Is this writer liberal?
It seems odd that the writer is puzzled at Romney’s tepid response to the president. It’s almost as if the writer expected and wanted Romney to jump right up and denounce homosexual marriage.
But, we don’t want this campaign to be about homosexual marriage. There are so many other issues to talk about.
Remember not too long ago, the media and liberals expressed frustration at Santorum and Republicans for talking about marriage, birth control, etc. Now they are frustrated at Romney for not enthusiastically talking about this stuff.
What exactly is supposed to happen to make the media happy?
Or are they angry that Romney didn’t take the bait, so to speak, and get out there about marriage like they expected him to????

Romney is the GOP version of an NWO shill, same as Obama is/was for the democrats. When the pace is too fast, as with Obama, they back off to a “conservative” for a few years till we adapt to the new conservatism. That’s the best the GOP can give us? That doesn’t say much for the GOP. We got Clinton that re-energized the GOP base. Then we got Obama that re-energized the GOP base. They make a lot of money when conservatives aren’t happy. Then all they can deliver is a paper puppet in a silk suit. Pull the stuffing out, nothing there.
Romney will win the election if he answers every diversionary question with- “I know that may seem important but I’d like to focus on jobs.”
It is axiomatic that when one's opponent is in the process of making a political blunder, the proper thing to do strategically is -- nothing. Ergo, Romney is in this case doing the right thing -- nothing, or close to it, a tepid non-response.
It could be argued that Obama "had to" make the statement that he did on gay marriage in order to mollify his base. But he then made an unforced error by permitting his political website to advertise t-shirts for infants emblazoned with "My Two Moms Support Obama," and "My Two Dads Support Obama." Also available: lovely apparel items touting the love of Obama by transgendered people. Who in the Obama brain trust thought that was a good idea?
So, again, if the other guy is drowning, don't throw him a life preserver. It may be that support of gay marriage may help Obama in California, and in a few other states where he's already likely to win. But it will be a net negative in swing states like Ohio and Florida. The columnist is obviously trying to bait Romney into escalating the gay marriage debate, probably to detract from discussions on the economy, where the real battle will be waged, and where Obama is most vulnerable.
Romney is pro-gay. Check his Mass record.
Why wouldn’t he be passive, Romney has no core but liberalism.

Romney has always been a cowardly “me too” liberal.
Watch the Etch-a-Sketch candidate repeat his past campaigns by running scared from the scumbag Democrat newsrooms and drifting relentlessly left, right up to election day. The guy is a liar and scumbag, and he cannot be trusted, ever.
Not just him but the whole R party and FNC.
Did you see FNC gay Shepard Smith’s reaction that he hopes Republicans don’t criticize Obama on this and instead stay on the ‘right side of history’ on this SS marriage crap??
I wonder what Mitt meant here?
“We must make equality for gays and lesbians a mainstream concern,”
I think it’s very wise to let it lay out there like the stink bomb it is, and let his statements speak for themselves. I think if Romney were to sit and harp on the issue, it might backfire on him. Everyone knows about it now and it. bodes better for whomever shuts up about it than whomever keeps talking it up. My sister and bro-in-law switched allegiance over this, very quietly, today they admitted.
The left believes they have won the cultural war, and that Americans will support them on the gay marriage issue, at least long enough to distract people from the fact that they aren’t working, and can’t afford the gas to look for work. The left has misjudged the consequences of this move.
if the actual numbers of young people turning ‘gay’ has dropped over the past decade, how could acceptance be increasing?
Where’s the link?
