Meghan McCain: "We need a GOP that supports gay marriage."

[Right Wing]

"I am a woman who despises labels and boxes and stereotypes. Recently, I seemed to have rocked a few individuals within my party by saying that I am a pro-life, pro-gay-marriage Republican. So if anyone is still confused, let me spell it out for you. I believe life begins at conception and I believe that people who fall in love should have the option to get married. Lest we forget, our founding document, the Declaration of Independence, grants the same rights to everyone in this country—“All men are created equal.” If you think certain rights should not apply to certain people, then you are saying those people are not equal. People may always have a difference of opinion on certain lifestyles, but championing a position that wants to treat people unequally isn’t just un-Republican. At its fundamental core, it’s un-American.
At the end of the day, speaking at the Log Cabin Republicans’ convention isn’t just about reaching out to the gay community—although I believe doing so is vital to the future success of the party. It’s also about reaching a wider base and redefining what it means to be Republican, and leaving labels, stereotypes, and negativity by the wayside."

I thought we had one.

I don't think the Federal Government should say anything about Gay Marriage. It is a State Issue.

Sounds like she is keeping up with her family roots by having no respect for the Conservative values of The GOP just like her fence-sitting, liberal appeasing father. ~BH

"the Declaration of Independence, grants the same rights to everyone in this country—“All men are created equal.”

Straight people and gay people have the same marriage rights, to marry one person of the opposite gender.

Her argument would make sense if straight people could marry anything and everything but that is not the case. The right to marry is defined the same way for all ethnic groups, age groups, gender and sexual orientation.

None of these individual groups have more or less rights available to them.

The gay marriage agenda is not about "equal rights".
The Civil Rights movement was about "apples for apples" application of Constitutional rights.
Using one groups "preference" to not exercise a current right as a platform to create new rights is a precedent that would haunt the U.S. for decades.
