Steve Schmidt, John McCain's campaign manager, teaches the US what the term sellout means.From Boston.com:
So, what Schmidt says is that Republicans should give up this core value so they "fit in" better with the rest of the country. They should do this to attract more voters.Steve Schmidt, the Republican strategist who managed John McCain's presidential campaign, called upon his party today to move to Barack Obama's left by fully supporting gay marriage.
Such a position would not only fit conservative principles, he argued, but could help Republicans navigate a political situation he said "could get worse before it gets better."
Isn't that what went wrong with the Republican party in the first place? The party left its core values and started looking more and more like Democrats with the result that no one can really tell them apart anymore.
The article continues:
Schmidt mounted a tightly argued conservative defense of gay unions, celebrating marriage as a traditional institution forces responsibility on to individuals and stability on society. (Emphasis added.)Schmidt says, in effect that we should give up traditional marriage because only accepting all forms of marriage will force individualism and stability.
What?
Let's put it this way, only when Republicans agree with the sheeples who support same sex marriage, will they become individuals and protect the stability of American society. That has to be the most absurd thing I've heard in a long, long time.
Yet, to Schmidt, it is OK for Republicans to give up marriage to homosexuals, because:
"Our coalition is shrinking, and losing ground with the segments of the population that are growing."Chalk this one up as another soul lost to the logically befuddled and perpetually confused segment of the population who cannot understand that marriage is a union between a man and a woman and not some social experiment to be accepted in the name of gaining constituents.
Thanks to David for pointing out this story to me.
