Yep! Kerry, Edwards, and many other 'Rats will use the phony "I'm personally opposed to gay marriage" and "I support states' rights" arguments to try to con the voters.

The activist nature of the leftist judiciary allows them to attempt this fraud. Kerry and Edwards both know they will never be called upon to vote directly in favor of gay marriage. The Senate's presiding officer isn't going to say "All those in favor of Senate Bill 3975 to legalize homosexual marriages nationwide say aye, all those opposed say nay." The homosexual "marriage" agenda is being imposed by the unelected and unaccountable courts, not via the legitimate legislative process.

All Kerry & Edwards have to do is stop any bill which might block the courts from imposing homo "marriage". They can do this while claiming to oppose these "marriages" on a "personal" basis, and while offering phony reasons for their stance. Such as when Kerry, Edwards, and even Barney Frank complained that a Federal Marriage Amendment would interfere with states' rights, as if they've ever cared about that in the past, and as if they don't know full well that without such an amendment the courts will eventually issue a judicial fiat imposing gay "marriage" nationwide (in violation of states' rights).

So to truly understand what Kerry and Edwards are saying on this issue, one has to understand that both are being completely dishonest. Once anyone realizes that, they're free to disregard them as lying con artists and can move on to more rational options!

I just posted this comment on another thread, I thought you'd like it:

The homosexual activists and "gay" rights people want homosexual marriage for one reason, and they have stated it themselves.

They want to destroy morality and the natural family, because those are obstacles to their "free-wheeling" enjoyment of wild promiscuous sex, and an obstacle to wholesale indoctrination and recruitment of fresh meat - OUR children.

And leftists have adopted this issue as their own, even though homosexuals are such a tiny percentage of the population for a couple of reasons - if "gay" sex is ok, then the less colorful (or distasteful) sexual immorality that they indulge in is by contrast moral rectitude. Also, the breakdown of the family and moral values helps usher in societal breakdown, thus furthering their socialist agenda.

It's really very simple.
