Is Romney conservative enough on homosexuality?

Gay activists are out there to get children so that they can grow up thinking homosexuality is ok. That offends me.

It offends me too. And its not just children who can be fooled. The Democratic party openly accepts homosexuality/sodomy. Congressman Gerry Studds had sex with male pages for several years and the party knew it. Congressman Barney Frank is openly homosexual. From Tip O’Neill to Nancy Pelosi, the House leadership under Democrats openly accepts homosexuality. I think the current crop of Democratic Presidential candidates do also. It looks as though the nation is divided. As I read these articles, it seems that Mitt is on the right side today. I think I have choices in the primary, but will probably have no choice but to vote Republican in the general election.

That is an effective video. I think the Romney folks should try to answer it. We should listen when/if they do. It’s been said that “there is no fool like and old fool.” That would be Kennedy then and now. In that video, young Romney looks the young fool. I think he may have grown up and acquired some wisdom since that time. But I’m not 100% certain. He has led his life well and that is important too.

It seems to me that if we were smart we would speak positively about those who are better than whatever the Democrats throw at us and not be so angry in their flame throwing. I will vote for whoever the republican candidate is, even if it is Rudy, and I will figure we won if he wins.

Ditto!

As if I have time to read all of that.

The simple answer is NO!

I lived under this guy’s Administration here in my State for the entire 4 years!

All of the BS aside, Mitt Romney was a terrific Governor, and he is worthy to be President, when compared to any of the rest.

He is not a politician, and he is not a parasite, unlike just about every other elected Official from this Commie State.

The folks who have made it the focus of their Internet life to undermine Mitt’s Presidential campaign are long on BS and short on sense!

It seems so from here.

If you have some links or cites for that I’d like to get them for future reference.

I think I have a Biblical view of this, but really it isn't a Federal issue.

Baloney. That's a historically illiterate position.

Marriage is our society's foundational institution, the bedrock of what it takes to raise up our posterity, and to ensure that they too will have the opportunity to enjoy the Blessings of Liberty.

Americans have always known this.

Four western states were not even allowed into the Union by Congress in the first place unless they would forever swear off plural marriage.

[EternalVigilance]

Do you think it would be okay if Utah legalized plural marriage?

[ml/nj]

That's a [sic] historically illiterate position..

Really? Go to any almanac and look up the marriage laws. They're different in every State. You may wish that marriage were federalized just like the lefties want health care (and everything else) federalized. Be careful what you wish for.

Do you think it would be okay if Utah legalized plural marriage?

Acutally, yes. Jacob had two wives. (Neither of them were guys BTW.)

[EternalVigilance]

Acutally, [sic] yes.

Okey-dokey, then.

The law that made them a state says that they have to get permission from Congress, and from the people of the state, to do so.

[What do you want him to do]

Well, being honest about his support for homosexuals would be a good start.

Problem is, if he's honest - he's DONE.

Next candidate please!

[ml/nj]

Acutally, [sic] yes.

Maybe you could tell mine was a typo?

[EternalVigilance]

I just found it humorous.

[VxH]

I just watched it.

Oh man, what a double-talker this guy is.

Pro-Abortion
Believes Homosexuals should be allowed into the Boy scouts
Supports affirmative action 10k quota reporting for Women and Minorities

He's definitely not a conservative but I didn't see anything in the video regarding homosexual marriage.

[Raymann]

Can someone tell we why is the government involved in marriage in the first place? I’m straight as an arrow when I find someone I want to marry, why do I have to get the governments consent to make it legal? This wouldn’t even be an issue if we didn’t have to ask the government to tie our own shoes.

Candidates aside, this is an offensive question.

Conservatives should have NO POSITION ON HOMOSEXUALITY.

It is not a Conservative Principle to be concerned with the sex lives of consenting adults.
