A married gay man is running for president. That's a big deal.
CNN ^ | January 24, 2019 | Kyle Blaine

South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg entered the 2020 race for president on Wednesday, announcing his intentions with a video featuring scenes of him and his husband, Chasten, cooking and playing with their dog, Buddy.

Should Buttigieg win his long-shot bid for the Democratic nomination, he will become the first nominee of a major political party who publicly identifies as gay. If he goes on to defeat President Donald Trump, it'd be a historic win.

Beating trump and attending his own innagugration are two different kettles of fish

The time devoted to this guy yesterday on the radio news indicated to me that he’s probably the driveby’s new Obama.

He doesn’t have a husband. He has a co-sodomite.

Perversion has become a virtue on the Left.

“If he goes on to defeat President Donald Trump, it’d be a historic win.” Historic,yes. A win? Hardly.

There are conservative gays. Not all of them are liberal.

But they are ALL mentally diseased.

Do we really want the mentally ill to be running our government? We'd have Obama part 2 and I don't think the nation can survive that.

Unless the Republicans counter the Democrat’s vote harvesting scheme in time for the 2020 elections, the only Republicans that will win will be those the Democrats want to win. RHINOs and Liberals. And the clock is winding down.

When someone who matters (yes that includes some Dems) thinks it's a big deal, then maybe it is.

CNN? Pfft!

The title is mistaken. Two men or two women cannot be joined in holy matrimony to each other. One man and one woman joining in holy matrimony constitutes a marriage. The two become one.

Two men or two women pretending to join together in an act ordained by God is a perversion. It is a sham. It mocks God. Only a fool mocks God. No good will come to those who practice it. Ditto to those who encourage and aid and abet it.

The truth is I’m more concerned with people’s values than with their sexual orientation.

But there's probably a 99% chance that a dude who is married to another dude won't have values that you or I believe in.

We should at least put the word married in quotation marks.

I know. My Preacher told us[the congregation] that he would go to jail before he would perform a same sex “wedding”.

He’ll get a LOT of support from the cultural barbarians. How much support depends on how significant the block of barbarians is.

Do I care who sleeps together in the bedroom? None of my business.

I know where you're coming from , but that attitude is what got this fascist ball rolling to begin with.

There is nothing wrong with society's condemnation of certain sexual relationships, expressed in laws.

No, there are not. Not if by "gay" you mean people who are out, proud and political about it (99.999% of them.)

Show me a self-professing "gay conservative" and I'll show you numerous policy positions they hold which veer decidedly left, not the least of which is redefining marriage.

I think the likelier candidate for the first gay president is James Buchanan. I’ve never heard such speculation regarding Fillmore or Pierce. Can you give a source for that?
