Why Romney is Not the Answer: Part 2 - RomneyBot No Like Gay Marriage

Many people are still on the fence about the upcoming election. Luckily for you, I am here. I want to guide you into making the right decision for you and your beliefs. I certainly won't tell you who to vote for. I simply want to get the facts out to my readers and the most efficient way to do it is to focus on one candidate at a time and as of right now, Mittens Romney is the target...err, I mean subject. In my previous post, (which you can find here) I explained Romney's position on medical marijuana. However, through careful research I actually learned more than just his position on keeping marijuana illegal but his support for dangerous synthetic marijuana known as "Spice" and his support and financial interest in addictive painkillers. But now it's time to move forward and learn more about our friend, Mittens. Let's see how he feels about homosexuals and their rights. Come on, it'll be fun!!

　

Unless you've been living in solitary confinement for the past couple of years, you know that the issue of gay marriage is a huge hot button topic for politicians to play with. Mittens is certainly no stranger to the notion of "playing" with the topic. Romney not only has played with the topic of gay rights but he has literally played the gay community. In 1994 when a young Romney was running for the Senate seat in Massachusetts, he seemed to be a Republican champion of gay rights. (I know it's a complete definition of oxymoron, right?) He wrote a letter to the Log Cabin Republicans outlining how important he believed gay rights to be and for proof here are some excerpts or for the full text click here :

• As a result of our discussions and other interactions with gay and lesbian voters across the state, I am more convinced than ever that as we seek to establish full equality for America's gay and lesbian citizens

• If we are to achieve the goals we share, we must make equality for gays and lesbians a mainstream concern.

• I think the gay community needs more support from the Republican Party and I would be a voice in the Republican Party to foster anti-discrimination efforts

See?  It's pink.  How clever of Mittens.

Believe it or not, these are real things that Romney said. Allow me to blow your mind a little more. During the 2002 Pride Week gathering in Massachusetts, Romney's crew of propaganda spreaders passed out flyers in support of the gay community. Mittens played it to the gay community that he was truly for them and their rights to life, liberty, and a fabulous time.  Now keep in mind, never in this time did he come out and say he was for or against gay marriage...exactly.  He eluded to his oppositon of it a lot and was even okay with the whole civil ceremony thing and domestic partnership.

Now I've told you all this and I left it at that you would probably think, "Mittens seems to be okay with the gay community.  What's you deal, Sleepy?  Why are you picking on poor Mittens?"  Well, because this position of good times and "full equality" didn't last.  Surprise!!!  A politician didn't keep his word!! 

In a 2008 interview with Chris Matthews on his show "Hardball",  Romney was asked where he stood on gay marriage and civil unions, an answer we all probably already knew but it was fun to ask.  Romney's response was a little more than what was expected, "Well, I would rather have neither, to tell you the truth. I'd rather that domestic partner benefits, such as hospital - hospital visitation rights for same-sex couples. I don't want civil unions or gay marriage.  But there is a difference, even when just the word is the difference. And the difference is that, if you indicate as a society that you're indifferent between a same-sex couple marrying and a heterosexual couple marrying, then it means our schools and other institutions are going to have to indicate that there is no difference whatsoever, and that obviously has societal consequences that are important."  Wow!!!  So now Romney is not only afraid of gays marrying, he's also afraid of them having a civil union.  He's terrified that kids in school will be to dumb to understand and the underpaid teachers will not be able to articulate the difference between gay marriage and hetero-marriage.  Oh dear God on planet Kolob, what will we do?!?!? 

So obviously there was a shift in Romney's ideology or he was full of shit to begin with.  How can one going from a champion of gay rights to a regular run of the mill, narrow-minded homophobe?  Well, it's one of two things in my opinion.  Number one, he never believed in gay rights to begin with and was only pandering to the homosexual community in Massachusetts.  Or number two, he found out from the Supreme Overlords of the GOP that gay rights will not be tolerated if he wants to be president. I think it's probably a healthy dose of both.  He has made sure to keep very consistent with his stance on gay marriage over the past few years...almost as if he is memorizing words from a script.  "Marriage is between a man and a woman...I do not support gay marriage"  He says these things in such a monotone, almost robotic manner it makes me question his humanity.  If you listen or watch closely when Romney is introduced to a hot topic like gay marriage or marijuana laws, you can see him almost shift into Romney-bot mode.  He is lost for his own words and reverts back to the GOP script handed to him by one of Dick Cheney's satanic minions.  Here is a great example: 
                                                                                            
I'll let you catch your breath from the uncomfortable laughter that probably just spewed from your soul.  Once Romney figured out the hard-grizzled veteran was a man-loving homosexual, he switched to Romney-bot mode.  He restated his weak stance, smiled and walked away as quickly as possible.  If you watched the video from the first Romney blog when he talked to the medical marijuana patient, you'll notice that he did the same exact thing.

It is clear that when it comes to any social issues that Romney does not have any clear personal opinions, he is strictly towing the GOP party line. 

Ok, so I've presented a couple of examples and you're probably thinking, "So is that it?"  Nope I wanted to share a quote from his failed 2008 Presidential bid too and see if you, dear reader, could take away what I did from it.  "My view on marriage has been entirely consistent over my political career. And that is that I oppose same-sex marriage. I also oppose civil unions . . . ever since [same-sex marriage] became a prominent feature in my state, with the decision of the Supreme Judicial Court, I have taken every action that I could conceive of within the bounds of the law to defend traditional marriage and to stop same-sex marriage . . . I've been to Washington to testify in favor of traditional marriage. I've written a letter to every U.S. senator on the topic . . . I believe that traditional marriage is right for the nurturing and development of children" 

To me it is always curious when I see such strong language used when opposing gay marriage.  In his mini-tirade, Mittens states that he took every action that he could concieve to stop gay marriage.  Now why is this?  Well, I always like to fantasize that people who talk like that are hiding something.  Is there some illicit past rendezous in Mitten's past that he is ashamed of?  Is he scared that perhaps if gay marriage is enacted that he will be enticed to leave Mrs. Romney and marry Marcus Bachmann?  Or as Joe Rogan has stated on his podcast before when talking about people like Romney or Santorum, that "maybe they are terrified that dicks are delicous"?  I'm not sure but I would never fight an issue that had nothing to do with me.

I could understand if politicians were trying to ban free speech.  If there was no free speech I certainly couldn't be doing what I'm doing here.  I would be arrested and thrown into Guantanamo Bay.  I would fight that tooth and nail.  Or if a law was trying to get passed that had some deep-seeded issue that could really effect my soul like...well, I don't know because I'm pretty open about everything.  That's why it is so curious to me why these politicians fight issues that in no way can personally effect or harm them or any of their followers.  I'm kind of in line with Rogan on this one, perhaps they are scared that if homosexuality becomes too widely accepted that they will be enticed into succumbing to their desires and go down on the first man that they see. 

"Support DUMB, Save Straight Marriage" by guest writer Harry Axelrod

In my continuing effort to give an equal voice to people I disagree with, I’ve opened up my blog to another guest writer this week.  As most of us that have the ability to read already know, North Carolina and its voters have decided that they needed an amendment to protect people from marrying other people that they love…unless they are of the opposite sex.  It was perplexing to me only because I possess logic, intelligence, and have the ability to make rational decisions (and that is my burden to bear).  I wanted to hear from one of the supporters of the amendment but I didn’t just want it to be some random voter plucked off the street.  I wanted someone who was deep into the crevice of the fight to keep marriage straight.  I met with Harry Axelrod of the group, Protecting Marriage’s Sanctity, and asked him if he would like a forum.  I explained that my readers love to hear from different views and that I was sure that he would be welcomed with open arms.   Mr. Axelrod founded his group in 2001 when he first feared the possibility of gay people marrying and he is stationed out of Eureka, North Carolina.  So without further ado,  I present Harry Axelrod.

We dodged a bullet the other day America.  North Carolina and the rest of the great Southern states were under attack and we prevailed….for now.  The gays were trying to get married in our great state.  I know it sounds preposterous but it’s true.  Some of the liberal left will try to tell you that there is no harm in letting them marry.  They will say that it really shouldn’t bother anyone if gays marry.  Well I wanted to take this time and this opportunity to tell you why you should care and why gay men in love with other gay men getting married are dangerous.

Number one, and I think this is well known and obvious but I still need to address it, gay marriage will ultimately destroy the sanctity of marriage.  Why?  Because ultimately my marriage, your marriage, and every other church sanctioned man-woman marriage will be considered void.  And this is what the gays want.  They don’t want to marry each other out of the pure love for one another.  They don’t want to be considered equals and share their lives together like every other American citizen has the right to.  No, they want to make sure all of our REAL marriages are destroyed.  Just look at it.  Let’s say that Bobby is married to Peggy.  They have a white house with a picket fence, two children, and a dog.  They are America’s standard, but if gay marriage were legalized Bobby would leave Peggy, change his name to Roberto, wear earrings, and marry Joey the plumber and Peggy dies on an overdose of Xanax and Jim Beam and the children will have no parents.  That’s what the gays want to do to our beautiful institution of marriage.  Gays want to leave a trail of depressed dead women and orphans.

Number two, gays want to eradicate the human race.  It’s a well-known fact that gay people will only raise gay children (if they are allowed to marry and adopt) and that will just cause a further epidemic of gayness.  Pretty soon everyone will be gay-married, because the gay kids will marry one another, no one will be able to reproduce because there is no womb in a man’s rectum, and the human race will be extinct like the dinosaurs.  Gays are to the human race what premarital sex is to a promising future…you can’t have both.  And just think about it a little further, when no babies are being born, there will be no need for schools which will leave millions of unemployed teachers.  Gays hate teachers and education.  Gaydom is trying to tear down our society. 

I could easily list at least 985,987 different bullet points as to how gay marriage will thrust a hot poker of death in the anus of America, but I don’t believe you want to sit here and read that much.  I think that in your souls that you know that allowing two human beings who are in love with each other to enter into a committed union together is the last thing that our nation needs.  We need to stop it.  We don’t need to worry about unemployment, health care, social security, or national defense.  All of that will take care of itself once we stop gay people from marrying each other because as science (and by science I mean Pat Robertson and the late Jerry Falwell) tells us, gays are the reason for every bad thing that has happened to America…ever.  If we can eliminate gay marriage, we can ultimately break the will of all of these gays and turn straight in despair.  They will have no choice but to be straight once we deny them the right to marriage.  I know this because science also tells us that being gay is a choice, so if one can choose to be gay then they can choose to be straight as well.  So join me and my fellow members of PMS to march on Washington to demand that our bill for marriage protection be brought to Congress and Senate.  I have drafted a bill in my spare time between teaching kindergarteners that will ultimately put this gay marriage issue to rest.  It’s called Defending the Union of Marriage Bill or DUMB for short.  My bill, if passed or even considered, will make it a federal offense to even try to get gay-married, it will abolish all the so called “unions” granted by the devil states before, and it will rescue all the children adopted by the well to do, rich gay couples and place them in loving orphanages run by my wife, Lucy Axelrod.  We can save this country, we can all follow the steps of North Carolina and their progressive stance.  I urge you all to write your Congressmen and demand that PMS should be heard and that you support DUMB.  Thank you.
