He can forget about running for President...Too many Republicans see this as a huge turnoff...
I could care less. I don't agree with same-sex marriage, but it isn't a priority to me. I don't think it is "worse than terrorism" like some Oklahoman Congresswoman said.
That Oklahoma legislator is a good friend of mine, Sally Kern. I don't agree with her assessment, but she is still a good friend of mine.
I have to give Gov. Huntsman a lot of credit. He's standing up to the majority of his party, especially in Utah, and recognizing that being favorable to civil unions and anti-discrimination laws is not the same as being pro-gay marriage. I pretty much have the same view on the subject as the Governor with the slight exception that I'm slowly, very slowly, warming to gay marriage.
Oh, you didn't offend me at all about Rep. Kern. I affirm your statement that she is overall a pretty good representative for her district, but also agree that her statement was a bit over the top. I don't really agree with a lot of her politics, but I know her heart for the Lord God and her heart for her constituents and there is a heart of gold beating inside her chest. Her elder son, Jesse, was my music minister from 1995-1997, and now lives in Iowa. Her husband, Steve, is the pastor of Olivet Baptist Church in NW OKC.
Back to her politics, she wouldn't stand a chance in a lot of the country, but in Oklahoma where the folks are conservative, she is a good representative.
