Say what Mitt Romney?

"As Republicans we must oppose discrimination and defend traditional marriage: one man, one woman," Romney says in his radio spot.

Yep - he said people must oppose discrimination but defind marriage (one man and one woman in his mind) which get this

DISCRIMINATES AGAINST A GROUP OF PEOPLE!!

So oppose discrimination when it affects you... but embrace it when it suits your needs.  Do they think people are stupid?  The answer to that question is a resounding YES!

Here is a quote fro his ad: 

“The courtroom should be a place where laws are interpreted, not made...The court ruling in Iowa is just another example of an activist judge trying to find things in the Constitution that aren’t there. As Republicans, we must oppose discrimination and defend traditional marriage: one man, one woman.” 

“That’s why Mitt Romney is supporting a Federal Marriage Amendment to the Constitution.”

BUT HE IS WANTING TO PUT something IN the Constitution that is NOT THERE!  How can he argue against something (see quote about judge) and turn around and then do something in the same vain and call it right!?

Again I ask, what is the big deal?  

What are they so damn afraid of?  

Why can't 'traditional marriage' co-exist with 'traditional gay marriage'?  

Mitt Romney makes me sick!
