Political Insiders: Republicans Divided on How to Address Gay Marriage [retread troll zot]
National Journal ^ | January 10, 2013 | Alex Roarty, Naureen Khan and Peter Bell

DEMOCRATS (109 VOTES)
My party should support it: 97%
My party should oppose it: 0%
My party should avoid the issue: 2%
Other: 1%

"Marriage equality is a vote-getter for Democrats and a vote-loser for the party of the last century, the Republicans."

"More and more states are adopting marriage equality, and it is time for the U.S.A. to lead on this issue."

"No issue has changed more dramatically than support for gay marriage over the last 10 years. In 20 years, it won't even be an issue."

"It's a nonissue. Americans support the concept. Let's move on!"...

REPUBLICANS (99 VOTES)
My party should support it: 27%
My party should oppose it: 11%
My party should avoid the issue: 48%
Other: 14%

"Wouldn't it be fascinating if, for once, the Republicans were on the front side of a historic wave, rather than thrashed around in the undertow?"

"There is a conservative case in favor of gay marriage that can easily be made around the issues of smaller government and lower taxes."

"We can't be a party that supports a zone of personal freedom and then try to use federal power to curtail it. Plus, we increasingly look prejudiced, and not a little stupid, on this issue."...

Figure homo marriage is 100X more disgusting than marrying your cousin and let the white trash homos know it.

LOL, moron.

If they're so distinct, then why all the lefty "government policy" that enforces "social conduct."

You do know that the government's institution of homo marriage is the freedom-limiting act here, don't you?

Noticed that too.
Shortly after the “no Thanks”.
I think they let Clucks McDrumstick peck him to death in the backroom.

Dreadful.

What do I think?

I thinks it’s Bullsh*t.

If I am alive in twenty years I will still think Homosexuals are some sick individuals that don’t need marriage but counseling.

Two people Fudge packing or Jilling each other off have no need to be married. The sex act they do is not a natural act.I am simply astonished by the amount of people who feel sorry for these perverted people and want to make their sickness acceptable .

Certainly there are some —many—very nice Homosexuals, but their sexual pratices are deviant. Worse, they are contaminating more and more people every day.

Tearing down 5000 years of civilization to mimic what occurred in Sodom, Gomorrah, and Ancient Rome to placate a gaggle of rimmers and felchers is hardly shifting forward. Why go backward?

Break the Newb?
I think that already happened.
Any incoherence, however in response to me, is merely coincidental.

The civilized world can’t condone unhealthy behavior where male deviants practice coprophagic behavior, fecal-oral transmission of a myriad of diseases, and attack young boys.

The issue before us is of government policy, not social conduct. The two are distinct, notwithstanding various attempts of totalitarian political ideologies to tear down the firewall between them.

A totalitarian ideology is one that insists that a tiny perverse fragment of the population should have the ability to enforce its will, language and culture on the entirety of the population.

The pillow-biters and their stooges in government, academe and media have done a fine job spreading their propaganda and convincing large numbers of people that the "gay" lifestyle is reasonable. But an argument based on a lie will eventually come crashing down. Just so with the lie that two sodomites are the moral equivalent of man and wife. As with the abortion issue, billions will have to be spent each year on indoctrination to keep the masses from remembering that homosexual acts are vile, filthy, disease vectors and soul-destroying, for such knowledge is written on the human heart and can never be eradicated.

Your entire post with your shared comments are indoctrination in itself. For years, the tactics, is to make this behavior seem normal by the liberals. How people can truly say that 2 people of the same sex doing acts with their bodies is not a problem. What you do in your private life is none of my business unless you are bringing a small child into those acts of behavior. Keep on pushing the issue and maybe it will turn in a direction of children’s rights. It’s a disgrace that young boys and girls are being hunted down and indoctrinated with this because this behavior wants acceptance. Pushing the marriage will be your agenda’s downfall because this never has worked.

You might as well ask if the Republican party should “get out front” about consuming feces.
