Exactly. Also, his point makes no sense when he mentions being responsible for a spouse one never had before, being cost money, etc. Actually, he kinda goes against himself with that point; he was blowing hot air. If anything, it's more inappropriate and unfair to allow gays to have civil unions and for that "boyfriend/girlfriend" to receive benefits on straight "husband/wives" can receive. That seems like even more reason to allow gays to marry and not have civil unions.

Folks are trying so hard to make ridiculous points that they end up making comments that go against their point in the first place. Can't someone just finally speak from their heart and not focus too hard on strategy?

I am surprised by the whole narrow minded thinking of today's Republicans, I remember the days of Ronald Regan and Tip O'Neal when it seemed like the politicians respected each other and tried to work together. We are all Americans why do have such partisan politics?

Seems like "partisan politics" all started with the relentless Witch Hunt during the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal that lead to a man's impeachment. As far as I'm concerned, Bill's infidelity was a private matter between him and Hilary instead of all of the nonsense that wasted so much tax payer money. This seemed to have ignited the the "Holier Than Thou" mentality from the Ultra Conservative Republican party of today.....
