"We are opposed to any granting of special legal entitlements, refuse to recognize, or grant
special privileges including, but not limited to: marriage between persons of the same sex (regardless of state of origin)"
Underlined is from your link, which answers my question.
Texas republicans and Obama have the same view on gay marriage.
No, they don't. Texas Republicans put outlawing homosexuality in their platform.
I get that you are angry at the President about stuff, but to conflate the two is ridiculous.
I asked specifically about gay marriage, not gays in general, maybe Obama pretends to be less of a homophobe to get votes but to me when you speak out against gay marriage you might as well be holding up a banner that says "I'm a homophobe."
That all depends on your point of view. Personally I believe marriage is between a man and a women. But I have no issues if gay couples are afforded the same benefits and hetero couples. It has nothing to do with homophobia or dislike of homosexuals.
