“Equated is a strong word...more like people will stop caring. Kind of like the shock with Clinton/Monica...by the end, the county simply wanted it to stop and if it took a finding a way to ignore an Oval Office BJ, so be it.”

Not just stop caring they won’t even notice. That’s what I meant.
Like weird mohawk haircuts. I remember when people noticed those. Now they seem pretty tame and almost normal.

Senator Cruz once again demonstrating leadership and integrity, as I would expect. He's going to make an outstanding president.

The clear conservative choice. Way to go, Senator.

I just called Gov. Pence’s office to voice my support. I would imagine the phones will be ringing off the hook today. The # is 317-232-4567 for anyone who is interested in doing the same.

Walker came out and said there would be no such law in Wisconsin. The more I hear about Walker the less I like him.

If I didn’t believe that stupidity was always the most likely choice, I would think that opposition to the gay agenda was being choreographed to be deliberately ineffectual.

It’s like our side is fighting the Battle of the Bulge with water balloons and bubble blowers.

Mitt Walker is very quickly showing us he is the mushy middle.

I saw a post here not long ago where the writer told Christians that they must be prepared to be martyrs in opposing gay marriage, and the bakers and photographers cases come to mind. And when they do sacrifice their businesses there's always a bunch of ‘way to go's here.

But this is a perfect example of the problem with sacrificing for this fight, Pence went further than the others but he signed this bill late at night no publicity and when he tries to defend it he is too scared to make the case as to exactly why this is needed and what it does and doesn't do.

Is it possible to get voters to take the side of the bakers and photographers who don't want to be forced to serve same sex marriages ? Will we ever know?

Certainly on birth control the Little Sisters of the poor had the advantage over the NAGS,

Another pet peeve I have is false equivalencies that convert no-one to the cause.

Demanding that a flowerist sell the same flowers to a same sex couple (for a wedding) as they do opposite sex couples is not the same as demanding that a Jewish baker bake swastikas or a Muslim restaurant serve pork.

They are just not the same and nondiscrimination laws don’t treat them the same.

Political fights require arguments that are useful OUTSIDE of the choir , unless the idea is to lose.

Wonder if Ted will stand by Pence’s cave in?

.....
If you believe “bought & paid for faux polls. I don’t”

They support it because libs convinced them that gays are equivalent to different races being discriminated against for their race, also that allowing the same sex to marry is a liberty issue, and that it hurts no-one.

That is how libs took the high ground of this fight.

Unfortunately those arguments were not effectively refuted.

“Unfortunately those arguments were not effectively refuted. “

Conservatives did NOT fight this hard enough. The GOP IMO might as well not even exist. It is useless.

Pence calls for legislation saying that nothing in the law shall permit a business to refuse service. So, a Christian must provide service to homos. So he is advocating a law to repeal the law? Isn’t that about it?

You wondered a good thought. Lo and behold - the cave has begun. And it ain't pretty.

Mike Pence Promises To Fix Indiana Law So It Bars Discrimination (caves to gaystapo)

Mike Pence: 'Was I expecting this kind of backlash? Heavens no.'
