The only real answer to this is to eliminate "marriage" licenses and replace them with partnership contracts. If a couple wants to have a religious marriage ceremony, go for it, but it will be meaningless to the government. A partnership contract can be between any two or more humans that agree to share all income, debt, and tax liability.

That works. Issuing marriage licenses to gay couples works, too. So I wouldn't say that's the only answer.

The reason I put marriage in quotes is because the word connotates a religious ceremony. Some religious people want to keep the sanctity of that word, which they say is defined in the bible as between a man and a woman. Some gay people are unwilling to compromise on this point and insist on being "married".

May have something to do with being gay and having religious beliefs not being mutually exclusive. May wife and I attended a predominately open gay FUMC when we lived in Boston.

Conflating morality to bigotry or policy doesn't do a lot to dissuade me that ya'll aren't a collection of slobbering morons parroting angry talking points. Regardless of how he gets there (freedom to contract contra civil right), he favors gay marriage.

What the eff? I gave you two quotes and rusty gave you another quote that directly states that he doesn't favor gay marriage. We are ahving this conversation because he has unequivocally stated he doesn't favor gay marriage. Are you real?

Uhhh, thanks for validating my post. . .

Also, I swear I read somewhere in the pit recently a comment from a libtard along the lines of

"In this day and age the president has far more influence and control over social issues than fiscal ones"

I mean, what in the ever living eff would compel somebody to state something so stupid?

Well our president is a disaster and we did nothing but irreparable harm in our short stay in power, sooooo, the new shtick is president's direct social issues, I guess. Deploy the talking points to our zombie constituency

Rand Paul will not be pleased by this. Libertarian David Koch wants Scott Walker for president. I like Walker better than Paul, too.

No, I don't really like Brownback all that much as a person or a politician. I'd like Walker / Fiorina.

I've never lived in a state where the sitting governor ran for president; people in the state of Wisconsin have to be pissed about the amount of time Walker has spent out of state campaigning already and he hasn't even announced yet.

True, to a point. I think once a candidate wins the primary for higher office, he/she should have to resign and appoint a replacement for the current office. Not sure if there are any states that require that.

On the other hand, there are probably about 50% of Wisconsonites who would be really proud to have Walker as president.

From an efficiency standpoint, I'd be more concerned that Walker had to win 3 elections in 4 years just to stay in office due to the stupid recall mounted by the unions.

Senators and reps, as well as Gov's, etc, should have to resign for anything other than their own office, imo.

By which you mean, they're running for the VP slot. Carson and Fiorina would both be great VP candidates.
