True dat. Portman's sellout fits right in with Pat Cadell's comments about how the RINO party has been lost to career pols who care only about hanging onto power.
However, I think Portman's position is similar to that of many weak-minded people. The gay lobby is gaining a foothold everywhere because parents don't want to think badly of their homosexual offspring. Churches are caving on the issue because parents don't want to think of their homosexual sons and daughters suffering eternal torment; so they change God's rules to something kinder and gentler.
I would argue that this is a reason to extend the terms of representatives from two years to at least four. Our current system means that HoR members are perpetually running for office.
Well, now there goes a politician with bedrock principles./s
What if his son admitted to sex with children?
He’d support that?
Or his son with a duck or Marybelle the ewe?
Going to support that?
Sheesh! Talk about a human wind vane!
Got to be a RINO.
