GOP strategist Karl Rove says he can imagine a Republican candidate in the next presidential campaign supporting gay marriage.
The statement from the former adviser to President George W. Bush appears to acknowledge that opposition to gay marriage has waned in some conservative circles.

Rove’s stepfather was gay. So his position on this issue is not a surprise.

"GOP strategist Karl Rove says he can imagine a Republican candidate in the next presidential campaign supporting gay marriage."
Then they might as well change their party affiliation and run as a Democrat. I'll never vote for another GOP RINO pick...ever.

For the “Architect” (of LOOSING) it's all about creating a “message” that will appeal to the broadest number of potential republican voters.
Maintaining power in the hands of republicans is the ultimate goal.
This is not synonymous with promoting conservative principles. Principles be damned! Keeping republicans in power is the name of the game.

My word, what a betrayal. Now we know why his friends in the media have not finished him off. He’s always been for the redefinition of traditional marriage. He has always been out to silence the conservatives(more proof). When Rush tells us over and over; they hate us (social conservatives; Christians.. )that’s the hint... it has been Rove and the people in control of the way they want that party to go) Until that guy and this current Speaker is old news; the betrayal and weakness to America’s values will only become worse. To have this view same sex being granted a husband/wife status is making me think they are not faithful to any religion. In the Bible it says not to bring any whore, sodomite, or dog into the house of the Lord. For "these things are an abomination to the Lord." This will end the GOP and if this is their plan, to support gay sin it’s needs to be brought out so millions of Christians can leave that party and be faithful to the Lord, not to this era of anything you want to do, it goes lifestyle.

Rove thinks that approving gay marriage will be the end of gay agenda. Just like electing the first black president stopped the race card from being played any more?

The question I have is what traditional value does the Left and their counterparts across the aisle, who will capitulate have in their sights after the homosexual marriage thing plays out as it will?
The right to private property really isn't fair and must be done away with? Or maybe it will be determined the right to peaceably assemble and to petition the government for redress of grievances is dangerous to dictators government, and is only contemplated by "extremists." Usually TEA Partiers.
I think removal of the right to bear arms campaign is a bridge too far, but losing that won't stop them and they will go for any seemingly small victory to gain a foothold. What's next?

Just read the 1963 list of Communist goals and cross-reference it with the time since. You’ll have your answer.
To: FlingWingFlyer
Rove, Noonan, Hume, Perino, Portman and others who think the base specially down in the south will support this then they are mistaken.
After speaking to a bunch of guys about this today then they are really missing how much people are pissed off about this

Sarah, Michelle Bachmann, Cruz, Ryan, etc are the future, Rove, and his elitist pals can take a flying leap off a building as far as I’m concerned and the likes of Hannity who sucked up to this idiot had better wake the hell up , stop giving these idiots a platform and start to mention about thia agenda.
This family will never vote for any man or woman who is a coward on this issue and social issues or supports this communist agenda

lawyers are looking forward to suing churches, teachers who won’t teach this in the schools, photographers who wont do the wedding.
out goes the very basic reason why this country was founded, religious freedom of which no one is talking about

Nobody cares what Rove says anymore.

society rewards the institution not the individual
homosexual conduct is ONLY about recreational sex.
recreational sex contributes nothing to society
homoseuxal conduct contributes nothing to society.
we used to have a non-public system of marriage recording. This lead to inheritance fraud, bigamy, and abandonment of children.
marriage is about intestate property rights. not just land, but all the other associated property rights. homosexuals have always been free to sign a form cohabitation agreenmtent. 19.95 online or at your local office supply store.
this is not about marriage, this is about declarining the way two homosexual men pop an orgasm as the legal equivalent of a mother giving birth.
