VP Cheney’s federalist approach to same-sex marriage.

RESIZE: AAA

It’s a crying shame that we have a President who isn’t as willing to be progressive on this issue as either Dick Cheney, or myself:

Essentially, he favors it, but he wants to let the states decide how to best approach the marriage issue. This is a perfectly acceptable strategy to me, as you all know: I just wish that it was acceptable to the White House.  Or anything definitive on the issue, really.

    Would be the same as asking for the leprechaun to lead you to a pot of gold or finding the Easter Bunny. It isn’t going to happen. However, I have already seen on other sites where folks want to blackball Cheney as not being conservative enough because of what he said, to them I would like to say that the by the state solution is probably the best that there is, and it conforms to the 10th amendment. Actually I would like to see the condition of the state that would allow unfettered abortion, gay marriage, and every other liberal point of view and see their condition in the end of things.

    the same-sex marriage activists want more than just their ‘right’ to marry. They basically want to FORCE everyone else to accept their lifestyle as morally right, and teach the same to children in public schools over the objections of their parents. I personally don’t care what goes on in the privacy of someone’s bedroom, nor does it matter. I do object to being told that I must accept another person’s choice when it is obviously not morally correct.

    therefore the power to legislate marriage is reserved for the States. Makes perfect sense to me.
