From The Advocate:

"I believe in the sanctity and unique role of marriage between man and woman, but I certainly don't believe in discriminating against any American," McCain said in November. He added: "I believe that gay marriage should not be legal."

Seeking to be seen as more conservative than McCain on issues dear to the right flank, Romney seized on the comments, saying: "That's his position, and in my opinion, it's disingenuous.

"Look, if somebody says they're in favor of gay marriage, I respect that view. If someone says, like I do, that I oppose same-sex marriage, I respect that view. But those who try and pretend to have it both ways, I find it to be disingenuous," Romney added.

I hate you, Romney, but I thank you for telling it like it is.

Although the fact that you know how it is may have something to do with the fact that you've been doing the same thing yourself:

Never mind that Romney's own position on same-sex marriage has been questioned in recent weeks after a 1994 letter surfaced from his unsuccessful Senate challenge to Senator Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass. In it, Romney pledged to be more effective in promoting gay issues than the liberal senator.

Sigh. Apparently "lining up to cynically kick the gays no matter what one's private beliefs" is going to be as popular an electoral tool this time as it has been the last two elections.

Apparently John Edwards is "not there yet" on gay marriage.

Consequently, I am "not there yet" on voting for John Edwards. Nor do I really anticipate being "there" any time soon.

But, Franks adds, "my religious preferences are my private business. That's not the business of anybody else."
