Republicans Endorse Ban on Gay Marriages

And they oppose any kind of recognition of civil unions. So I guess they are saying that all gays should have no rights in our country?

NEW YORK - Republicans endorsed an uncompromising position against gay unions Wednesday in a manifesto that contrasts with Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites)'s supportive comments about gay rights and the moderate face the party will show at next week's national convention.

A panel made up largely of conservative delegates approved platform language that calls for a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage and opposes legal recognition of any sort for gay civil unions.

Reading the article, republicans are announcing publicly that what you see at the convention is NOT what you're going to get - that it's necessary to try to fool enough people to get elected and then Bush will take care of the Religious Right. Simply amazing!

Didn't VP GoFyourself just come out in support of gays in a recent invite-only address-your-choir event? (I guess he has to contort his words into pretzels since he has a gay daughter.)

It sounded almost like he was breaking lockstep with God's Own Party there for a second.
