Years ago, when Romney ran for the U.S. Senate against Ted Kennedy, didn’t Romney take out full-page newspapers ads claiming that he, Romney, would be a bigger advocate for gay rights than Ted Kennedy?
Yes. I consider myself a better advocate for “gay rights” than Ted Kennedy, because I believe strongly in our individual rights that are granted by our Creator, and strongly support the bill of rights which is supposed to constrain government from interfering with our God-given rights.
Ted Kennedy is a proponent of taking away the rights of nearly everybody, including gay people.
Romney’s position on gay rights in the last election was not one of his selling points, but he opposed gay marriage and supported DOMA which meant at a federal level he was going to be OK.
I oppose gay marriage because rights are for individuals, not groups, and every gay person has the same right to marry a person of the opposite sex as I do.
