We don't know what #9 means. Your guess is as good as mine. I do know, there is a fervor broiling below the surface to outlaw gay marriage. And that's what that looks like to me.
Where in the Sam Hill did you get "a single mother . . . won't be able to get food for the child" out of anything written in the document that is the subject of this thread?

Other than the overtly religious overtones, how did you get anti gay marriage from any of that ? He's obviously not pro choice, that I get.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with any of this. Even if you don't believe in God, what else that's written here do you dispute?

You have to follow the conversation. I bothered to quote the poster I was responding to, if you cared to read the post. This:

you dont take kids from families but you DONT SUBSIDISE people for not having 2 parent households.

Yeah, no hatred or dismissal for people who identify or think differently.

This is an example of the stigma the GOP has when it comes to hating poor people. Which is why I ask myself why should I as a black working class dude who's not making 6 figures, vote for these people? They want to tax me. No better than the Demwits.

I know what follows this statement "Men and women are biologically different,
“male and female He created them.”

Because in fact, I am a devout Christian. And I know what people are advocating for, when they make that statement.

Abolishing gay relationships.

Rick Scott you are now at the top of my most respected list

https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics...e-gop-majority
I clicked on it, hoping to see some greatness. There were a few good ideas in there, and a lot of bad ones.


Example:
Quote:
No child will be taught they are inherently racist because of the color of their skin, or that some Americans are oppressors and others are oppressed.
Why should we be afraid to teach our kids the harsh reality that there are some oppressors out there. Failing to alert them of the real world only results in more targets to oppress.

Quote:
Parents, not government, will choose the best schools for their kids.
As it currently is. If a parent wants to send their kid to a private school, they can. I just don't want my tax dollars going to vouchers.

Quote:
... not indoctrinate children with critical race theory or any other political ideology.
But then it contradicts with

Quote:
No public school will be allowed to discriminate against voluntary prayer or force children to check their faith at the door.
^Again, there is no rule anywhere that prohibits voluntary prayer of an individual. But he correctly states that the schools should not indoctrinate, so they should not organize prayer either. Let kids practice their faith, any faith, privately and as they see fit. School is for learning, not indoctrination. (He got that one right)

That was just the first point, I could go on and on, but the main point is this:

He said a bunch of things, with no plans on how to implement them. Just a bunch of partisan talking points. I was hoping that he'd have some solutions, there are none.

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE that many of these things need to happen, but not in the biased way he's proposing, and there needs some leadership on how to do it.

Also, you can't say that you won't allow revisionist history, and in the same breath, say you'll outlaw points of view about our history that don't align with your donors and base. (CRT).

He's full of it. It's a very divisive document, even refers to "the radical left". That is not bringing anyone together. How about he acknowledges mulitiple points of view, and provides some leadership on how to incorporate diverse ideas. NOPE!!!!!
