It is absolutely delightful what the democrats are doing. Putting a plank in their platform for gay marriage is a grave mistake. Homosexuality is something wrong. Gay marriage is allowing them an attempt to normalize it. That too is wrong. The majority of the people still recognize it as wrong. They will stand by and watch it on the news, but it still reviles them. When behind the curtains in November, the electorate will show the democrats what a huge mistake it was.

This is all perfectly logical.

Kill as many babies as you want.
Encourage LGBT, so that marriage between one man and one woman dies off.
Far fewer people.
More for ‘me’.

This will all but guarantee the 5% drop in Black turnout and the 5% drop in support among Blacks that do turn out which will end Obama’s chances.
Question: “Aren't Party platforms supposed to HELP a candidate in an election? This helps him raise Gay money, but it will stop him in November.

Gay Marriage Bans have been passed in every state it's been up for a vote and every one of the votes haven't even been close. The Lame Stream Media is trying to bamboozle Americans into thinking it's socially acceptable in order to further their own queer agenda.

Chick-fil-A should tell us all we need to know about where the country really stands. Hundred's of thousands in support for traditional marriage and a few hundred for the queers.

I want the Rats to run on it because all Romney has to do is sit back and let the queers try to take over the Rat Party.

When it is over, all the RATS will leave behind is wreckage as America moves on and capitalism rebuilds. The RATS will be at least a decade out of power because they cause: economic depression, moral turpitude, massive unemployment, disrespect for law, loss of national status, invasive illegal immigration, and the destruction of journalism. They will leave a historical record demonstrating that progressive-ism, socialism, and communism really do belong together on the ash-heap of history.

Senator Phil Gramm was right in his prediction that Americans would some day be using dogs to hunt down democrats fleeing the crime scene....

I would hope that some Republican-aligned organization takes up the challenge to publicize this in the Hispanic community, with huge billboards showing two men kissing, with the message that if you vote for Democrats/Obama it means that you want to see more of that in the streets and wedding chapels. Perfectly truthful ad, perfectly damaging to the Commies in a demographic that they think is theirs.

How about a 'marriage' between a woman and 300 men from third world countries who want to become citizens of the United States? Each man could prove his 'love' by giving a $5,000 diamond engagement ring...

Or a brother and sister - can democrats 'protect' their 'luv'? Why not?

So many 'combinations' so little time...

I dunno, can’t see it making too many folks change in any great numbers, in my opinion. I mean ‘gay marriage’ is going to make folks take off when they were happy standing on the ‘killing unborn people’ plank for how long? Maybe I’m wrong.

Skip the two men kissing part, but the Romney campaign should be absolutely certain that every black and Hispanic voter in the country is informed of the Democrat’s decision to support gay marriage, as well as Obama’s recent switch to that position (from the opposite one, not from a neutral one.)

Billboards quoting the Democrat platform plank, with an internet address to use for verification, are all that should be needed. Obama can be defeated by publicizing the facts of his performance and his positions; no embellishment of those facts, nor of his positions, should be needed.

Many blacks and Hispanics will not support Obama once they are actually informed of his positions (instead of being lied to daily by the MSM.) Use the ad dollars to inform; the infuriation will take care of itself.

[ Democrats Draft Gay Marriage Platform (Democrats nail their own coffin) ]

That sucks but sometimes it packs.. or even licks..
It must be embarrassing to have democrats as friends..

I tolerate a RINO or two but at least they are embarrassed to display their democrat tendencies..
However; it is true that to be a RINO is to basically be a democrat..

I guess I will be forced to vote for the inventor of Romney-care versus the inventor of Obama-care..
That really .... you know... SUCKS..

Senator Moynihan in 1994 - Defining Deviancy Down

“Asserts that the amount of deviant behavior in American society has increased beyond levels the community can afford to recognize and that society has been redefining deviancy to exempt much conduct previously stigmatized and accepting as normal behavior that considered abnormal by earlier standards. Redefinition is categorized as altruistic, opportunistic, and normalizing. “

Though the language that was voted on could still be revised...

Translation: "We'll see how this polls."
