Cindy McCain Poses for NOH8 Campaign (Comes Out For Gay Marriage)
She Wired ^ | 1-20-10 | Veronica Lane

Posted on 01/20/2010 11:59:27 AM PST by icwhatudo

Irony hit the jackpot as Cindy McCain, wife of Senator John McCain, posed for the NOH8 campaign, reports the Advocate.

As the mother to vocal marriage equality advocate, Meghan McCain, we are surprised at such unanticipated support. Is this the Cindy we all knew to be that staunch republican with a narrow outlook on equality? On a positive aspect, it could be true that not all republicans are anti-gay marriage.

According the NOH8's website, Cindy McCain wanted to participate in the campaign to show people that party doesn't matter and that marriage equality isn't a Republican issue any more than it is a Democratic issue.

my thoughts too

no where doe sit state that two of the same sex can be married, it just doesn’t state that, as said before, eery argument for them to marry can and will be used for other kinds of marriage.

If anyone doesn’;t have a problem for two of the same sex getting married then they should not have a problem for the LDS church t have their kind of marriage or muslims to have theirs

my thoughts too

her daughter was crying how she could not get a man after the election.
She then spent time with a woman homo and then comes out for homos

Now the mother does.
This is mother making waves for her daughter to now say she is mentally a sick pervert who cannot get a real man so she needs a woman to wear a strap on and pretend there is a man

I guess you are titled to your opinion, but most gays I know could care less about getting married. They are not being denied anything a married couple gets.They like the life they live and call the prop-8 crowd the “peacocks” that want more press coverage for gays.
I, myself, could care less.

The rationale for allowing gay marriage requires also allowing polygamous and incestuous unions as well.

I agree.
They have all their constitutional rights.
So shut the hell up and contribute to society unstead of causing trouble.

On gay issue alone, I prefer STABLE MARRIAGE for gays rather than seeing GAYS wantonly making out with anyone they find on the street.

Do you really think gay marriage will end them wantonly making out with anyone they find on the street? We have heterosexual members of congress and a former President who did it all the time.

If Cindy and Meghan are going to push gay marriage, then it is time for her husband to suffer the consequences in the Arizona Republican primary. Time for J.D. Hayworth to set up and end his political career.

“...A gay man has the right to marry either a straight/gay woman any time he wants just as gay woman can marry gay/straight man anytime she wants. THAT is equal protection under the law. Being able to marry a “house cat” is a new thing, just as man/man or woman/woman marriage is a new thing. That is the argument. Additionally, if gay marriage is OK, so is plural marriages of any configuration...”

The above is a good economy-of-words argument against faggot marriage.

Just a couple of thoughts:

1. Which portion of the Constitution gives ANYONE the the right to marry?

2. What state denies ANY unmarried adult who is not incarcerated the right to marry?

Homosexuals have EXACTLY THE SAME rights that everyone else does.


Man, I wish this issue would die, but it just won't so here goes the explanation AGAIN....

Marriage is a word and just like all of the other words in our language, it has a definition. For many, the definition of marriage derived from our religious backgrounds as being between a man and a woman. Government decided that in order for the marriage to be legally binding, a marriage license was required. Some states also recognize a common law marriage. Nevertheless, before PC came along, everyone understood what the definition of marriage was.

The anger over this issue is because those, pushing an agenda to tear out the Christian fabric from our country, wish to make marriage mean something completely different. If their goal was simply equal rights under the law, meaning a union recognized by the state, they could have just pushed for legislation stating that any other union besides that of one man and one woman be declared a civil union. I firmly believe that many would not have had any problem with this. But that is not the route they chose to take.

1. Cindy McCain is different from John McCain

Thanks for the tip.

2. After his defeat, John McCain has learned his lessons: bipartisanship is dangerous in the Era Of Obama. He’s been consistently conservative last year. In 2009, McCain didn’t give us any trouble, right?

LOL-Of course he's conservative-its an election year!

3. Palin coming to Arkansas is not necessarily for McCain. The occassion is actually a fundraising ceremony for AR’s GOP to support all R/C in AR.

What??? Arkansas? She's going to Arizona. Palin is scheduled to attend a private fundraising event that evening. The next day, she and McCain will appear together at a public event, likely a rally, according to McCain spokeswoman Brooke Buchanan.

6.But in 21st Century, I don’ think I should impose my “values” onto others.

Forcing a change of the definition of marriage on others IS imposing values on others.

I guess it really is best in some ways that 0bama won. At least 0bama is making it crystal clear where a non-conservative government leads to.

It’s not just Christian, it’s Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, Jain, Parsee, and even Muslim.

And it’s nature’s law.

Homosexual acts violate nature’s laws and should not be given any special favors or legal protection.

Two men or two women engaging in mutual sexual acts of gratification is not, never was, and never will be in any way equivalent to the marriage of a man and a woman.

You can call a dog a frog but that doesn’t make it one.

Mom had no choice... the daughter is NOT attractive to men, and won’t be bringing home “someone special” to meet the folks... unless it’s a lesbian. Mom is between a rock and a hard place.

Cindy is a spoiled little rich girl by birth. Her father being a mega beer distributor.

Nothing wrong with that.

But the probability of establishment Republicans to be liberal on social issues and be accepted at the Chardonnay and Pate parties is very hard to overcome.

They are indoctinated, if not at liberal elite universities, then in their social/peer groups.

It’s just another “gulf of divide” between the establishment and the average American.

Note: that gay marriage has come up, I believe, 13 times and has been voted down each time. This issue is a winner for conservatives and Republicans...despite the propaganda put out by Cindy, Hollywood, academia, and “human rights” groups.

and even Muslim.

You sure about that?

And it’s nature’s law.

I agree that its nature's law. My post deals with the fact that there is an agenda at work by terming it Gay Marriage. It is meant to spit in the face of the religious roots of this country.

Even Islam by tenet forbids homosexual acts. Of course, such perversion is rampant in the world of Islam but it is forbidden in the Koran.

I agree that the entire “gay” agenda - not just marriage - is a broadside attack against the freedom of religious expression, freedom of speech and freedom of association.

They want to change (iow “ruin”) society. They’ve said as much, very clearly.

But men are allowed to be polygamists.
