Throwing some red meat to the port deck chairs
Bush is getting behind the “no gay marriage” amendment. Along with these other bloggers, I’m trying to think of a lower priority.
Hot Air » Federal Marriage Amendment
The president’s going to try to toss some red meat to the base today by, uh, coming out in favor of the Federal Marriage Amendment. Which doesn’t have a prayer of passing.Consider this your chance to sound off. I think this guy’s right on the money, but I’m also among what’s probably a small minority of right-wingers in thinking that, however distasteful one might find certain aspects of gay culture, the Equal Protection Clause should/does protect their right to marry.

I’m not sure which is worse… that a President might honestly be such a willfully ignorant bigot as to promote this amendment, or that a President might not mind gay marriage but would sell out so many Americans just to pander to his ever-shrinking base of religious conservatives.Not that it much matters, as between issues such as this, the War on (Some) Drugs, impotence on Social Security reform, and government spending and pork that would make any Democrat spooge all over a White House intern while on the phone with world leaders, the Republicans continue their march toward irrelevance when it comes to my next vote.
Patterico’s Pontifications » Bush to Support Gay Marriage Ban
As I have said before, I don’t see the huge threat that gay marriage allegedly poses to the fabric of our society. And I oppose Bush’s support of a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.Feel free to tell me why I’m wrong.
Does anyone think this is important and/or a good idea?
