So much for principle.
Even in ancient Rome, there was no gay marriage! No society, as far as I know has ever sunk to the level of accepting homosexuality by putting it on the same footing as marriage. Think about it, this has been invented and promoted in the Christian West. The Communist world did not invent this, not the Muslim world, not the Buddhist world or the Hindu world. But the Western World which has given the world the highest form of religious expression is now hell bent on tearing down all that is holy in the Christian world.
Have you ever read the “Gay Manifesto”? Portman’s actions are right in keeping with one of the stepping stones of the gay manifesto. One of the gay’s plans was to encourage gays to “come out of the closet” to their families, then to work on their parents and families to get them to accept their homosexuality and then to use their families as advocates for acceptance of homosexuality. It has been working like a charm. A number of prominenet people, some of them Republicans and conservatives have sons or daughters who are gay, trangender etc. and they have come out to defend their children. This causes a socially difficult position within the extended family as well as their friends and colleages as it puts people in an ackward spot since they do not want to hurt the feelings of the parents.
I believe that GOProud has been using this tactic. These people have the subtlety and cleverness of the serpent. We have to find ways to counter this by standing up for our principles regardless of the emotional pressure that the gays know how to use so well.
... is obliged to deconsruct natural marriage pe se, and invent a new, absurd institution with the same name."
What if his son had wanted to give a "lifetime commitment" to two men? Or to his grandmother? Or to a man and a woman (there's the "B" in "LGBT".)
And no that he's got a "lifetime" "commitment", is his daddy going to criminalize divorce?
Theres a word for this that has 8 letters and sounds like a fresh steaming ready-made organic fertilizer product, but its a word I dont want to use on Free Republic.
AMEN...AMEN...AMEN!!!
Unfortunately, the Ohio GOP leader has said he will continue to support Portman. Outrageous! They should be asking for his resignation, post haste!
BTTT, exactly right.
Here is the actual Gay Manifesto. It was written by Carl Wittman who was a member of the SDS and later was an LGBT activist.
Keep this, you will find it very useful to know the enemies plans.

Read paragraph 6 which begins with —”A note on exploitation of children” and #5 top right hand column — “Perversion”.
This is not the Gay Manifesto that I read before, that was more of a specific set of plans for changing society’s attitudes toward the whole gay attitude towards sex.

Homosexuals are being carefully trained in their mind bending of society. They have gay clubs in the highschools so that they can feel comfortable in their milieu. They are trained in how to “come out” to their parents and what sort of language to use. I believe they probably lean more heavily on the mother as being the one who’s motherly portective instincts will be more easy to exploit. So mom works on dad and dad finally caves in. I think that is how it probably worked with Portman and in most homes.
So the Ohio Republican party leader is another gay enabler? hmm ~ looks like the party is being overrun with these guys ~ may I predict a monstrous defeat in the next election
People's kids come here.
You're presuming people can actually find a party that doesn't have politicians who are homosexual or have homosexual children.
So no, I don't think that prediction will come true.
Another “Etch-a-Sketch” Republican.
How is this any different than a person who buys hot coffee at McDonald’s, spills it on their lap, then campaigns to have hot coffee outlawed for everyone else?
His son is a homosexual. Well, that happens. It does not mean that countless heterosexual people should be oppressed by having to support his non-procreative lifestyle, just because he wants to be nice to his son.
Married heterosexual couples get certain advantages because of the difficulty and expense of raising children. Unmarried and childless people do not get these advantages, which is as it should be, as they do not experience the costs, either.
There is not any reason that he can not live a happy and productive life just because he and his companion(s) cannot pretend to be “just like” a heterosexual couple.
They have no need to adopt, and this is unfair to any child they might adopt, as those children desperately need both a mother and father role model, not two homosexuals or two lesbians.
You are correct! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_same-sex_unions This is the first time in history that gay marriage is put on the same plane as normal heterosexual marriage. Some ancients sanctioned same sex unions but they were never called marriage and were never held out to be equal to real marriage/man/woman
I don’t give a damn about the sexuality of a senator’s son.
But I am very bothered that an elected official is so weak in
his personal beliefs that a revelation by his son could cause
him to pull a 180. He should step down and urge that he
be replaced by his kid.
You need to keep up on my commentaries. Turned out ~ actually this has happened several times so, let’s say it turns out that the American people will not, in general, vote for Republicans when they feel the party is being overrun with gay politicians. in 2006 we lost big time over that particular issue.
Apparently the youth is a victim of adult over indulgence.
You want to be a fairy queen? No problem. Marry your same-sex playmate and your parents will adapt to YOUR idea of sexual pleasure.
The Ten Commandments? They’re merely suggestions.
Your parents stand for whatever satisfies you and out the window with whatever platform I once stood on in order to get elected.
Well, Portman. The near future will prove that congressrats are not elected for life. Your days in the diseased-ridden halls of government are numbered.
Have a cup of tea.
