Yes, and that is why repealing things like sodomy laws doesn't mean the behavior in question is being condoned, let alone embraced. It means its none of the government's business.

This is true, and if all this gay group wants is for the governmnent to leave gays alone, then there is no reason to object to this meeting. But what are the chances of that? More likely they want special treatment by the government, which is where a problem arises.

The best way to find out what their real goals are is to talk to them, hence the meeting. If they want special treatment, then of course the GOP can say they aren't going to support that.

The moralistas are in a tizzy because they even talked to them.
