No, hopefully Republicans restore common sense and restore the natural ways of "doing marriage" in this country. And that doesn't include man-man or woman-woman. It's hardly progress to allow people of the same sex to marry.
Why should your lifestyle choice entitle you to certain "rights?" If you're talking about the right to marry, gays have the right to marry someone of the opposite sex, just like everyone else. What rights are being denied?
As a blue dog dem and not a fan at all of the modern GOP,I have to ask you..what advancement are you talking about?Gays can get married,what more do they want that could be stopped?
The biggest thing is adding 'sexual orientation' to all the federal anti-discrimination laws. That never passed even with D majorities, but with R's, zero chance.
Simple. Republicans are deeply opposed to the advancement of gay rights in this country. They have loudly criticized the recent Supreme Court rulings. Will a majority Republican Congress attempt to roll back the progress that gay rights have made in this country?
What are "gay rights?" How are they different from the rights established by the Constitution (Bill of Rights) and the unalienable rights described in the Declaration of Independence? Are their "special" rights that apply to "gays?"

Exactly! They are demanding "special rights." When the Declaration of Independence says "All men are created equal," that means that all people are endowed with "certain unalienable rights;" but, there is no right to marriage established in any of our founding documents. Therefore, they are not being denied any rights. Marriage is defined as the union of a man and a woman, and homosexuals do not get to change that definition to suit their perversion.
99.99% of republicans have no issue with people wanting to be with whom ever they want....
the issue has always been the GREED of the LBGT community.....its all about the bennies
What about the greed of the heterosexuals that get married? Are their marriages all about the bennies too?
And why shouldn't I have access to those bennies? I am an American citizen too.
