<<Here, we get to see the mind of knute, in another person's typing. Once again, every Republican is apparently pure as the driven snow, as they are these supposed "paragons of virture", simply because they advocate living a moral lifestyle. >>
I think advocating a Constitutional amendment to prevent gays from marrying each other is a little more than "advocating living a moral lifestyle." It gets down to the point where they are changing the constitution of a country to prevent consenting adults, American citizens who see life differently than they do, from living their own lives according to their own morality, without knuckling to the moral values of the Republican Party.
When members of this Party, who have taken it upon themselves to LEGISLATE morality for others, are shown up to be perverts and the protectors and enablers of perverts, who prey upon children, then there is a kind of Schadenfreude that you will not find when a member of a more tolerant, laissez-faire and morally permissive party gets caught with his pants down.
Anybody with a reasonable amount of experience in the real world, dealing with real people, using basic common sense, would already know this. Conservatives, living as they do with their heads stuck up their ass for an entire lifetime, need it explained to them. Which is kind of sad.
