    OK, that settles that.

    Today in California, the Republican National Committee passed the resolution proposed to the Resolutions Committee by Republican National Committeeman Dave Agema that re-supported the party platform and defined marriage as being between a man and a woman.

    Republican National Committeeman Dave Agema issued the following statement in response:


    "Social Conservatives in recent weeks were disheartened by the rhetoric coming out of the Growth and Opportunity Project with regard to moderating our position on gay marriage.  Simply put, if the party moderated its stance then many of our voters and social conservative leaders would have left the party.

    We responded by bringing significant attention to this important issue and ultimately passing a resolution at the RNC that re-confirmed our party platform in favor of marriage being defined as being between a man and a woman.

    I am pleased with our success in the face of unrelenting criticism from the left and want to thank national social conservative leaders who made their voices heard loud and clear in this process.

    I hope that we can all now move forward and talk about other issues now that we have reconfirmed that our party supports traditional marriage.  We have won the battle, and I will have nothing more to say on this matter."

    I will.

    Thank you Mr Agema.  Thank you for re-affirming the strength of character that the Republican party is supposed to represent.  Thank you for the light you have shed on the dark forces within our own party.  Thank you for the courage to take fire from those who stand in opposition to strong families, and healthy citizenry. Thank you for persisting, and prevailing in your well considered arguments.

    You have done us proud.

    And our nation is far better off for it.

    You might want to make sure that "conservative" editor Nolan Finley also gets a copy of that reaffirmation.

    From his writings as of late, he's been spending far too much time around his buds Stephen Henderson and Debbie Dingell that its affected his judgement.

    This resolution didn't "just pass" (none / 0) (#3)

    It "passed unanimously".

    Nah, campuses aren't really just Progressive indoctrination centers.  {facepalm}

    Unfortunately "republicans" like Dennis (5.00 / 1) (#6)

    Lennox consider those that defend traditional marriage as bigots / haters / homophobes.  He is all about winning elections though... for democrats!  Dennis please shut your ignorant pie hole!
