Pelosi: Gay marriage more important than elections
The Washington Examiner ^ | May 10, 2012 | Joel Gehrke

Posted on 05/10/2012 1:35:27 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., indicated that President Obama's support for gay marriage is worth any electoral reversals that Democratic Party might sustain as a result.

"The statement that the president made was something that was the right thing to do for the country; it filled my heart with joy," Pelosi told reporters today. "We come here to do a job for the American people, not to hold a job . . . It's more important than any political consequences."

It’s not about marriage. It’s about mainstreaming and institutionalizing their lifestyle. They want your children to be taught in school at the youngest ages that under the law they can marry either a man or a woman, whichever one they want. Legalization is the society saying they approve of and endorse the act. It causes a ripple effect that permeates every aspect of life. So when your little Johnny starts holding little Billy’s hand as he walks home from school, gives him a kiss good-bye and sends him Valentine’s cards, you’ll know where he learned it and why. Just imagine if the first thing you ever learned about marriage was that it’s the pairing of any two people, regardless of gender. I can only imagine how confused this would make and what an influence this would have on people who are pre-pubescent and don’t even understand sexual feelings yet.

Hope she’s sayin’ that to her priest in the confessional and he’s telling her to forget taking the Eucharist.

That’s assuming she still practices Catholicism and not voodoo.

"We come here to do a job for the American people ...

... namely to push an agenda they don't want, because we know what's good for them far better than they do.

No need to thank us."

There must really be an Extinction Level Event coming in December, as the Mayans predicted. The government knows about it and they are ready to get to their bunkers.

How else can you explain these assholes (Biden, Obama, Reid, Pelosi) acting this way in an election year?

The tone of Pelosi’s comments suggests to me that she is already making excuses for an Obama defeat.


Good point! She is good at anticipating trouble.

I bet her husband sleeps on the couch.

Well, Pelosi sure wrecked the 2010 elections for the Democrats by pushing her radical left-wing social agenda. Based on her track record, I think I believe her when she says promoting “gay rights” is more important than winning elections.

No doubt Nancy Pelosi would say Satan is more important the God the Father. Unfortunately her alliances are all backwards...

Pelosi and Biden are the most pathetic CLOWNS in the entire world. Hope they enjoy that distinction. Obama is the third, but he doesn’t claim to be a member of the Church. CLOWNS.

All those consequences that you listed are actually a “positive” in furthering the agenda of family destruction,

so those consequences wouldn’t deter the left one single bit.

Do they still ex-communicate members in the catholic church

I’m not sure. But, she goes against the basic teachings of the Church.

Damn, she’s a ditz.

You have to be part-way conscious to be a ditz. She's a fully lobotomized drone.

I’m sure the unutterable depravity in her hometown’s street fairs fills her heart with “joy” as well.

Where is her priest? Where is her Bishop? Is the Pope listening to what this so called “devout Catholic” is saying? Can you say excommunication?

Don't hold your breath. The Catholic "church" is complicit.

Jesus will have to spew it out of his mouth and raise up a church from the stones, just as he told the pharisees.

A Romney win affirms rank liberalism as the new "conservatism," lowering the bar for the next and succeeding elections.

A bitter pill today for health tomorrow is far vision, not the near-sightedness of "anyone but Obama" (would this include Satan?)

Hey, I agree with Nutsy Pelosi! If obamas support for homosexual ersatz marriage gets some dems tossed, I am for it too.

It’s like when Jocelyn Elders was canned. The meme was that she was fired over her talk of taking sex positive teaching to kids and encouraging them to masturbate.

I also heard from friends who were in medical school at the time that she was as dumb as a box of hammers.

>The fact is you have two candidates. Obama and Romney.

That’s only ONE candidate!
