Romney Sides With Bachmann and Santorum on Marriage Pledge
By Lucas Grindley
Mitt Romney has thrown his name in the mix with Rick Santorum and Michele
Bachmann, who all signed pledges today that are sponsored by the antigay
National Organization for Marriage.
The three have now promised to not only support amending the U.S.
Constitution to ban gay marriage but also to nominate judges who say the
Constitution doesn't guarantee marriage equality.
The to-do list doesn't stop there. As part of the pledge, they swear to put
gay marriage up to a vote in the District of Columbia, where local lawmakers
made it legal. They promise to fight for the Defense of Marriage Act in
court — something President Barack Obama isn't doing.
In the most cryptic of the promises, the candidates for the GOP nomination
say that if they are elected, they will create a "presidential commission on
religious liberty." The commission would "investigate and document reports
of Americans who have been harassed or threatened" for supporting gay
marriage bans in speech or in donations. The commission might even "propose
new protections" for those who are against same-sex marriage.
Not signing the pledge was former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, who lags
significantly in polls behind Bachmann and Romney. Pawlenty also refused to
sign a pledge by the Iowa Family Leader, which required that candidates
believe gay men are a public health risk, that gay parents are inferior to
straight parents, and that homosexuality is a choice. Although Pawlenty is
against gay marriage, he'd rather use his own words on the issues than sign
a pledge, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Romney said the Family Leader pledge was "undignified and inappropriate" but
didn't explain what he disliked. The pledge also made references to
candidate's personal fidelity to their spouse, among other things. Only
Bachmann and Santorum have signed both pledges. |

Some of those gay guys think their wallets are way more important than their
right to marry. Some of them even ridicule the "need" to have marriage
equality, hence what is the point of worrying about potentially having
marriage right killed by a super-conservative GOP president (so long as
their wallets can be pampered by the presumably business/tax-friendly
Republicans)?

１４万，少６。７％。
还有个原因，民主党掌权多交点税是立马的看的到的，但是重要的同志权益任然遥不可及，很有可能是你多交很多年税，但是重要的同志权益依然没有。不是说多交点钱给政府doma就没有拉。。。
当然现在或者过两年基本民意对同志的变化到质变的时候，谁在台上掌权就变得比较重要。
