the government should not be in the business of restricting freedoms for anyone

Words to live by.

The government should not be in the business of promoting and endorsing perversion.

Is this John McCain's Steve Shmidt?

If so, your initial assessment is correct.

"America has bigger problems than who can and cannot marry; it is time to move beyond this and focus on bigger problems, like the federal deficit and unemployment rates," she said

Why has the left chosen this hill to fight on?

In my experience dealing with the Under 30 crowd they unfortunately see complete moral equivalence between this and the Civil Rights struggle of the 50’s and 60’s.

I’m afraid it’s a done deal once enough of us go to that great Tea Party Rally in the sky.

Yeah, he’s been pretending to be concerned about conservatism at FR for a few weeks now.

The government should not be in the business of redefining the family.

It's a major step in their ultimate goal. First they mainstream butt sex, then they lower the age of consent, and viola! They get to screw little boys.

Apparently so. The article reflects his insight -- as I recall, he was one of the first major figures in the GOP to sound the alarm about how McCain shot himself in the foot with a bad VP pick.

restricting freedom?? for anyone?

to marry a 5 year old?

Redefining words like “marriage” is not something government should be either

The PRINCIPLE is to maintain and support MARRIAGE as between one man and one woman. THIS (the notion that we should no longer follow the God-given principle of MARRIAGE) is exactly the kind of thing that has weakened the GOP!

We should be doing everything we can to strengthen marriage because it IS the foundation of a healthy society.

Probably more accurately the equivalence is seen between not allowing gay marriage, and the old anti-miscengenation laws.

One thing that is extremely similar between gay marriage and lifting interacial marriage bans is the incredibly rapid flip in public opinion.

I see the liberal homosexual n00b disruptor has not been zotted yet. Someone is getting sloppy...
