"And hell yes I would deny them "spousal rights". I don't support the Feds being involved in marriage, at all.

From my post #108 that I believe you did not read entirely.

Of course I read it, and responded to the strange post you made ignoring yet again the issue with childish avoidance.

In post 12 I told you. “”You keep slipping around the marriage issue, again, federal law HAS to address marriage at the federal level, for instance for military personnel.

Would you ever grant homosexual military the same spousal rights as heterosexual members?””

It absolutely does not. All the federal government has to recognize is a contract.

Letting the federal government define/decide what is and isn't marriage from the beginning is what created this mess.

You must not know anything about military life, the military has to deal with married personnel and their spouses in housing, security, travel, health care, everything.

The feds have to have their own definitions of marriage for the military, federal employment, immigration, and they always have.

There was NEVER a time when the Federal government was not making law regarding marriage at the federal level.

"“”You keep slipping around the marriage issue, again, federal law HAS to address marriage at the federal level, for instance for military personnel."

You make that assertion as if it's absolute fact because you said so. That's like saying government must continue to fund Social Security indefinitely. Or that the USA can never default on its' debt.

It is absolute fact, the military could not operate by suddenly deciding that in it’s eyes, everyone is single and always will be.

The feds have to decide if a person trying to immigrate is married or not.

Do you really think the founders didn’t know the constitution, or the realities of life when they were writing marriage law at the federal level in 1780, 1784, 1798, 1802?

Well yeah, I won’t reject GOD and country, and conservatism and start supporting social liberalism.

Anything to avoid answering the simple question to reveal how far your pro-gay agenda goes.

With hetro marriage in the military being fully recognized, do you support the military not recognizing gay marriage while they do recognize normal marriage?
