US Republican Senator Rob Portman favours gay unions

Influential Republican Senator Rob Portman has renounced his opposition to gay marriage.

The Ohio senator said he began to change his mind in 2011 after his son, Will, revealed he was gay.

Sen Portman said the disclosure made him reconsider gay marriage from a different perspective.

Rob Portman on the Issues

Let the military decide on don't-ask-don't-tell: Opposes topic 3
Supports Amendment to prevent same sex marriage: Strongly Opposes topic 3
Supports banning homosexuals in the military: Strongly Opposes topic 3
YES on banning gay adoptions in DC.: Opposes topic 3
YES on Constitutional Amendment banning same-sex marriage: Strongly Opposes topic 3

He's also very pro guns.
I wonder f he'd change his mind on that issue if someone shot his kid for being a 'poofter'.

Seriously, that must be his credibility out of the window.

"I really believe in this.....as long as it doesn't effect me", is hardly a good political position.

Maybe you shouldnt hate people to begin with.

Maybe you shouldnt hate people to begin with.

That would seem like a better way but, sadly, a lot of people have irrational hatred for others.
It's interesting to see how this right wing idiot reacts when his stupidity catches up with him.

lol..........................
If you hate gays, the wheels will start spinning to put you in a place that will end with you on your knees getting fucked in the mouth, if you don't like money, then you should oppress gays, then you will know I am right.
I'm not saying just talking shit about gays, but actually cause political harm to gays, you need to learn how to giggle it, knowing how to giggle it correctly will help you dig yourself out of the hole you will find your self in.

 

[Truthmatters]

he didnt care when it didnt effect him.

People who dont care about others they dont know are a poor choice to represent people they dont know

Hopefully it starts a wave amongst Republicans and gay marriage becomes the law of land, instead of the political distraction is has become!

No one hates gays. They might not want to be dominated by the gay agenda, but they don't hate gays.

 

[hjmick]

Hey Fred, did you take a similar approach after Obama revealed his views on gay marriage had "evolved?" How's his "credibility" holding up?


Didn't think so...

Like Obama prior to his "evolution," right?

Tossing stones from a glass house again I presume! Why not worry about Indonesia's treatment of gays!

LGBT rights in Indonesia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people in Indonesia will face legal challenges and prejudices not experienced by non-LGBT residents. Traditional mores disapprove of homosexuality and cross-dressing, which impacts public policy. For example, Indonesian same-sex couples and households headed by same-sex couples are not eligible for any of the legal protections available to opposite-sex married couples. The importance in Indonesia for social harmony leads to duties rather than rights to be emphasized, which means that human rights along with homosexual rights are very fragile.

Both traditionalists and modernist Muslims generally oppose homosexuality. Many Islamic fundamentalist groups such as the FPI (the Front of Supporters of Islam) and the FBR (Betawi Council Forum) are openly hostile towards LGBT people by attacking the home or work of those they believe are a threat to the values of Islam.

Explicit discrimination and violent homophobia is carried out mainly by religious extremists, while subtle discrimination and marginalization occurs in daily life among friends, family, at work or school. LGBT people often suffer abuse by the hands of the police but it is hard to document due to victims refusing to give statements due to their sexuality. LGBT people are often arrested or charged due to their sexual orientation. Also gays in jails are sexually abused due to their sexual orientation, and often do not report it due to being traumatized and fear of being sent back to prison to suffer further abuse.

Indonesia does have a reputation as being a relatively moderate and tolerant Muslim nation, which does have some application to LGBT people. There are some LGBT people in the media and the national government has allowed a discrete LGBT community to exist, even organize public events. However, the conservative Islamic social mores tend to dominate within the broader society. Homosexuality and cross-dressing remain taboo and periodically LGBT people become the targets of local religious laws or fanatical vigilante groups

Quite how that relates to a duff politician is beyond me.
Some cut and paste job about Indonesia is sod all to do with the credibility of an American politician.

Provide evidence he ever HATED gays. You know, since you made the claim.

 

[Oldguy]

So, what's going on here? Is the left now taking a cue from the Nutter's propaganda machine and posting multiple threads on the same subject, or are you like the Nutter's and unable to use the search function?

[Crackerjaxon]

The idea of bringing any kind of marriage before federal courts is ludicrous.

When did marriage become a federal issue?

When gay activists realized they were making no headway in some states. That's when. DOMA was put into place to keep gay activists from forcing their definition of marriage on the nation via the 14th Amendment.

lol Here's the new Pope, wearing a fabulous vintage chiffon-lined Dior gold lame gown over a silk Vera Wang empire waist tulle cocktail dress, accessorized with a three-foot House of Whoville hat and the ruby slippers Judy Garland wore in the Wizard of Oz, on his way to tell us it's Wrong to be Gay.

And yet, the same progressives who dictate we must accept LGBT people also insist we embrace muslims.
