GOP presidential candidate and Ohio Gov. John Kasich says he respects the Supreme Court's controversial okay of same-sex marriage, although he doesn't personally agree with it.
In an interview with J.D. Hayworth, aired Wednesday on "Newsmax Prime," Kasich, who recently attended a same-sex wedding, said: "I'm a believer that faith is about the do's and not the don'ts and I also believe that faith is about grace. I made it clear I don't agree with the Supreme Court's decision but I'm going to respect the Supreme Court's decision." Earlier this year, the Supreme Court ruled that same-sex couples who want to marry be constitutionally given the same recognition as male and female couples on both the state and federal level.
Kasich believes traditional marriage as being between a man and a woman, but, he added, "We need to move on."
"We don't want to compare one sin to another. They're all kind of equal," Kasich said. "What I believe is we ought to talk about the do's and not the don'ts, about humility, the issue of being in a position of where you can be a center of justice and healing.

NO, just sweep it under the rug, John.
You are unfit to become our President. We have another John in the HOuse from Ohio who wants to do the exact same thing.
I don’t know where in the Constitution the government has any role in regulating marriage.
Kasich is a sell out.
Sounds like a fitting epitaph for the GOPe.
John is right. It is time for him to move on. Buh-bye.
Yeah, time to ‘move on’ to oblivion...
The sodomites aren’t done with us yet. They’re just getting warmed up.
Oh don’t forget that more than a couple liberals fraudulently calling themselves Freepers said the very same thing. And lets not forget all those that regularly preach pragmatism here either.
I appreciate his forthrightness and promptness in disqualifying himself.
Nicely done, John. Thanks for playing. Bye, now.
I think Kasich has known some sodomites...when he rented that DC sexnest with Gary Condit.
While investigating the disappearance of Chandra Levy, LEA went into the Condit apartment with the blacklight equipment, which discovers semen.
The whole place lit up—walls, floors, bathroom, drapes, etc.
How disgusting!
BTW, some illegal immigrant took the rap for Condit.
Honestly and truly, until seeing this, I forgot K was still a candidate.
It’s always “move on” with these losers.
I don’t respect Kasich.
He is a nice guy but we all know nice guys finish last,,,
Kasich, I have no respect for you or your acceptance of a bad ruling.
Do you still accept the dred scott decision?
That’s why he is considered a RINO!
Oh, I haven’t forgotten.
These are the same (bleeps) who called Kim Davis a democratic plant.
Even after she turned republican, they still bad mouthed her.
I wonder why fundraisers are nearly overlapping. It’s indeed a mystery.
Another pube quitter. Time to send him packing!
Dred Scott was settled law too, until it wasn’t.
