I thought I'd help you out with a geography lesson, since you obviously either never had it, or failed it.
Here you go......

Former first lady Laura Bush has broken with her husband on the premier social issues of his administration and said she backs gay marriage and abortion.
After more than eight years of silence on the controversial issues, Mrs. Bush said in an interview with CNN's Larry KingTuesday, that gay marriage and abortion were points of contention with her husband, former President George W. Bush.
Mrs. Bush in recent weeks has been promoting her memoir "Spoken from the Heart," in which she writes about her life both before and after becoming first lady.
In response to a question about gay marriage, she said, "There are a lot of people who have trouble coming to terms with that because they see marriage as traditionally between a man and a woman. But I also know that, you know, when couples are committed to each other and love each other, that they ought to have, I think, the same sort of rights that everyone has."
Mrs. Bush said she and the ex-president "disagree" on legalizing same-sex marriage.

And I see you like mocking prayer too.
Perhaps you should be careful with both of those problems. Neither is particularly a good quality in an adult, whould you ever become one....
Look, I am for states deciding marriage laws, and specifically states deciding AGAINST same-sex marriage and I am even against civil unions that give the benefits of marriage to gays or unmarried hetro couples. I feel the same way on abortion, but AFTER Roe is overturned which it should be.
But please don't try to give the impression Cheney is neutral. He is for same-sex marriage AND open homosexuality in the military (a complete disaster.) There is no question about this, whatever his reasons. And Laura has similar views.
Ron Paul supporter here!
He may be a republican in name only, but loyalty to a party that doesn't deliver is a waste of time.
He is the only true conservative and constitutionalist that the GOP has. Plus, he's pro-life and against special privileges for queers.
I’m not surprised. When she came out for fetal stem cell research a while back, well, this is cut from the same cloth.
She has the typical liberal habit of not thinking, but rather, she responds from her emotions. You can tell from her reasons for homosexual “marriage.”
How ironic that her book is from “her heart,” when abortion stops the hearts of others.
I’ll pass on this book.
Supporting a guaranteed loser who is most certainly NOT an across the board conservative, and is the quintessential RINO is destructive to the conservative movement.
Thanks for that! That is the quote of the day :)

I also oppose civil unions. To me it makes no sense to oppose gay marriage yet support civil unions. That is a position that seeks to preserve the word ‘marriage’ and nothing else. Not that the word has no meaning, of course it does because the Left wants it so bad. They already had gay marriage in all but name in California, but they want the word ‘marriage’ because it would represent a total triumph on their part.
I didn’t mean to suggest that Cheney is neutral. I’m sure he’d stab conservatives in the back on this issue given the chance. My point was about how the line of questioning on this issue is too limited. One should not be allowed to simply say that they oppose or support gay marriage/civil unions; they should be asked who they think should decide the issue, the people or the judges. If they support gay marriage, they should be asked if they think it is a Constitutional right that should be imposed on an unwilling nation.
But we never get answers to questions like that because the questions are never asked. Even Republicans seldom bring this up.
I am late to this but I’m very disheartened (yet not totally surprised) to read of this.
Right or wrong, I sent an email to the GWB presidential library telling them to take me off of their mailing list requesting donations. I am a Bush supporter but this leaves a very bitter taste in mouth. I feel like she is thumbing her nose at the *only* people who supported her husband throughout his presidency and even now. In the email, I told them perhaps they can rely on Laura’s newfound pro-abortion/gay marriage friends to fund the library since she felt so compelled to share those political views of hers with the world. Her daughters wanted it known, too, that they’re not even sure they would vote for Republicans. Let those “moderates” and “liberals” with whom they’re so enamored pony up the money for his library.
Agree? Disagree with this argument?
Please don't call me a Laura-bot. Some of you have been mean to me :)
When Ron Paul is attacked and people like W and his wife are put on pedestals, no reform occurs.

He was the only true conservative on the stage during the presidential primaries.
Name one other republican that wanted to cut the budget or eliminate a federal agency.
I agree with you there.
You know in 2008 I saw McCain on ‘The View’ and he was asked about abortion and he replied “Original intent of constitution’ or maybe ‘strict constructionist’ (McCain is a huge phony anyway BTW.)
Whoopie told him that it meant 'going back to slavery' and McCain replies “I disagree’. That is all he could say? Anyone that knows anything about the constitution knows that's not true. Not President McCain was clueless like most of them LOL
Yeah, I remember that. Whoopie serves up a completely idiotic caricature of originalism that is just asking to be swatted down, and McCain barely responds whatsoever.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a candidate who could actually articulate conservative views. I couldn’t help but think of how Fred Thompson would have handled that.
anyways, since your a 'rule breaker' i guess Ill hafta just keep checkin yer pings...8^}
RE :”Wouldn’t it be nice to have a candidate who could actually articulate conservative views.”
Have you ever seen Scalia debate Breyer on constitutional issues on CSPAN (in a live debate) ?? It was magic...saw two debates a few years back.
GH got me started and I cant stop.....he is evil :)
The elites just love us pro-life voters. We are so dependable. They will never do anything to risk such a good situation for them. They make me sick to my stomach.
You need to change your online name to “Awesome”!
