"Nov. 18, 2003 Romney responds to SJC ruling with four-sentence statement implicitly recognizing SJCs authority, says only remedy will be a constitutional amendment: I disagree with the Supreme Judicial Court. Marriage is an institution between a man and a woman. I will support an amendment to the Massachusetts Constitution to make that expressly clear. Of course, we must provide basic civil rights and appropriate benefits to nontraditional couples, but marriage is a special institution that should be reserved for a man and a woman."
As some here continue to reject the Republican nominee, I just wish that only the truth is posted - Democrats are the spinners, not Conservative or Republicans.
It is interesting that you call Romney the Republican nominee when we are still in primary season and have not yet made it to convention. Cart before the horse, much?
No one has said Mitt didn’t flip-flop when he finally decided to support the marriage protection amendment. The same one he originally called too extreme. After the damage has been done, he comes around and pretends he has always been for it, after he’s been against it.
You said, “Democrats are the spinners, not Conservative or Republicans.”
Real conservatives don’t have to spin, but we all know that Romney is not a real conservative. And when it comes to family matters like abortion and gay marriage, Mitt is always slow to arrive at the truth and will do anything to hide that fact from the unsuspecting. Attempting to hide that fact is the same play he tried four years ago last election. Four years has not made Mitt’s lie any more true.
That is indeed what Romney said. Then he made executive actions making gay marriage happen, on his own, with no vote taken or law being changed.
If I am wrong, please show me the actions of the legislature showing their action to change the law the SJC found unconstitutional.
