  • Romney is a man of Morals and Character who will bring good morals to D.C. unlike BHO.

    Romney 2012

  • @LesterManio

    Right on. Aren't you going to be excited when he is pres and we put all our money into finding planet Kolob? Only the great Kolob can save us now!

  • My Gaydar may not be very good, but Mitt looks homosexual to me. It's pretty easy to picture him dancing in a glitter thong and a white-feathered Indian-chief headdress in a St Patrick's Day parade

  • rom's a dueche bag. equal employment opportunity but no equal marriage opportunity. weak sauce

    

  • 666 DISLIKES!

  • I'm sure he's lying but to hear a politician say "religion doesnt belong in politics" is amazing. They should all be like him. If you want to hate people, thats fine but dont be pushing it into politics and trying to make it law like Santorum does.

  • RELIGION conflicts with Logic. how can anyone govern a people when they have religious views on what is right & wrong?

    What is more important for the advancement of a society-- religious beleif or pure logic?

  • RON PAUL 2012

  • what a scared little prick,

  • Lmao what a scared little bitch. Whats the matter Romney? Afraid your religious views might screw you out of votes?

  • Ok, devils advocate for one second here; Why would a gay person wan't to get married anyway? Marriage is a religious promise to God. I know people have changed its meaning and such with civil partnerships and atheist wording but that's simply stupid. Would an atheist wan't to become or copy a priest? Equal rights are one thing (which I agree with 100%) but religions condemn homosexuality (unless you look at all the new age crystal waving ones made up by hippies trying to please everyone).

  • @MrEnterthehole So why would Gay people wan't to adopt a practice of an institute which doesn't like their actions? -Devils advocate- Don't go flaming me with sparkly hate ;P

  • @MrEnterthehole "flaming on me with sparkly hate" - lol. That is awesome (coming from a gay guy)

  • @MrEnterthehole HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • @MrEnterthehole I think it's more the legal recognition and benefits offered to legally married couples. Gay marriage and legalization of marijuana are the two hurdles that will probably be green lighted just for the sake of focusing on more the important things.

  • @bkeels002 Yup, you're most likely right.

  • @MrEnterthehole I agree that Marriage is a religious institution - being as such, the government should not recognize ANY marriage (but rather only 'Civil Unions'). But, that is never going to happen. Over the years, the term "Marriage" has developed two distinctly different meanings: 1) A union/promise to God, 2) A Union which is recognized by the government and is given tax/insurance benefits. This is why many gay people advocate for gay "Marriage" - using definition 2 above.

  • @MTUboi86 Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. :)

  • @MrEnterthehole Haven't you picked up on how important marriage is socially & culturally? Being "married" grants the pinnacle of recognition and respect for your relationship; it is the last, biggest, and final step, above dating and engagement. That's what it's about, in addition to legal benefits and rights. Try having your "partner" of many years be admitted to the ER and a nurse tell you that you must be immediate family or a spouse to make decisions & get to stay with them.

  • Ron Paul says it's not government business to have anything at all whatsoever with marriage. And that's the way it SHOULD be.

  • marriage is something between a man and a woman! gay people then come around and say hey i want to take part in that!! i say they should just call it something else not marriage!!!!!!!!

  • As an adult, I "get" it. But the Republican party is so fucked up if you look at it objectively. We send a message to kids saying things like "It gets better" and then you see people in power supporting ideas like this. Don't these Republicans see the opportunity to win the hearts of millions of people by creating unity between people? That's a power money can't buy, you know.

  • so... banning gay marraige, preventing gays from having the same rights as everyone else... isnt discrimination??

    i hate when homophobics pretend to not be homophobics

  • @lalaland13ish The purpose of marriage is to define the responsibilities and obligations of a couple with respect to procreation. Our legislature does not ban you from procreating, your creator does (God, Darwin or what/whomever else that may be). When you discover a means of procreating with a member of your own sex we should take up the issue of gay marriage as, perhaps, then it would apply to homosexuals.

  • So if his political views are separate from his faith..what exactly is his objection to same sex marriage?

  • Gay marriage is an issue!!!??? It is a shame that state founded on very noble principles was hijacked by wackos.

  • 0:52 riiiiiiiggggghhhhttttt

  • @disposablefreedom (contd)... (c) it'll raise polygamous & incest marriage protests (d) since it's a psychiatric illness and perversion, it will justify for instance any marriage protest between a mother and her blood son with whom she is sexually in love, or between a man and a pussy cat that he loves and it loves him back.

  • Comment removed

  • @Briannegirl I appreciate your respect towards Romney. :)

  • Mitt didn't realize that Pierce Morgan is gay. LOL

  • Even though I don't fully agree with his opinion about gay marriage, I must take his side. That British guy was definetly influencing and manipulationg the conversation by interrupting him and asking annoying questions regarding his religious views. I felt like punching him in the face!

  • @slim240293 I with you on this.

  • leftist claptrap. the socialists are doing everything to make Romney look bad

  • @TheSteeletube No... he does that himself!

  • So let me get this straight. He opposes gay marriage because religion says so...but he says he wants to keep religion separate from his judgement as a leader. If it didnt know any better i would say that this notion IS A FUCKING PARADOX. You need to be really stupid or really evil to think any of this makes sense.

  • equal rights but not in marriage

  • Comment removed

  • Coward.

  • "Civil Union" is not equality. Marriage is. I don't want to force any priest or church to marry us if they don't want to. There are churches in America that do marry gay people, and that's fine by us. I wouldn't want to get married in a church by anybody who doesn't think they want to. But once again, "Civil Union" is not marriage...and that is our Right. And we won't force you to believe in it, force your priests & pastors & rabbi s to perform the ceremony. It is time for EQUAL RIGHTS!

  • Politicians could not give a fuck less who marries who, they just hold these views to appeal to the homophobic vast majority of Americans. Politicians can only thrive if they mirror what the people want, and this is one of the problems with democracy... it doesn't matter at this point though, when the old generation dies and our generation is the vast majority of voters we wont give a fuck if gay people marry so it will past in time.

  • @thelifeofbrian1 that's why we don't live in a democracy

  • what a fucking tool!

  • I wonder when he chose to be heterosexual....

  • @xlonglostlotrelf LOL! When he was inducted into the church of Wackos.

  • I don't understand why gays tenaciously seek marriage? What is wrong with civil institutions? Seriously marriage these days is such a failed and dying institution.

  • @gplus46: "I don't understand why gays tenaciously seek marriage?"

    -- For the same reasons other people seek it, I imagine: legal protections for their families, a way to affirm to anyone they meet that they are a couple who are legally and socially responsible for one another in good times and bad, tens of thousands of dollars in government tax breaks over their lifetime. None of these are available through "civil institutions".

  • @hanohanonacowboy

    why don't they fight for them to be acceptable in civil unions?

  • @hanohanonacowboy You devalue the Civil Rights movement every time you make the comparison. It's not the same thing.

  • Comment removed

  • @hanohanonacowboy So it's about money, and not love?

  • @juanjoseantoniopedro: "So it's about money, and not love?"

    -- People get married for all sorts of reasons. Money and love are two of them. Tradition, parental or religious pressure, and a desire to be "exalted" in a "celestial" arrangement that will make them become gods and rule over alien planets.

    But LEGAL marriage--the thing Mitt Romney is speaking about in the viedo--has none of these requirements.

    Please quit lying, juan.

  • what a coward. He knows that the mormon church considers homosexuality a sin but he doesnt want to look bad in front of the gay community. Fucking coward, lying piece of...

  • KEEP CHURCH AND STATE SEPERATE!!!

    NO Religion in Politics!!!

  • weasel

  • "I am not a spokesman for the Church." Funny, that isn't what the doctrine of the Mormon church says. I mean every member a missionary and missionaries are representatives of the Mormon church so as a member you are a representative of the Mormon church.

  • @trueinar Being a spokesman of the church and a missionary of the church are entirely two different things.

  • @rafaelg45 How? I was a Mormon missionary at one point in my life. I was told I represented the church and I was told by the church that I would be expected to answer peoples questions regarding the church. What is the difference between representative of the church and a spokesman? As a missionary I spoke for the church. Missionaries, for any religion speak for their religions and are thus spokesman. Saying that they are two different things doesn't accomplish anything.

  • @trueinar mormonism isn't a religion. It's a scam.

  • @illahham touche. That was something I realized as a missionary. My family won't listen but whatever.

  • Mitt Romney on being a douche lol. i crack myself up

  • Marriage has been around longer than Christianity. Just sayin.

  • @crobexplosion Homosexuality too! Just saying.

  • @fabaum22 Yeah, the Greeks actually agreed that 'feeling' something should be embraced. And a 'marriage' back then was about property and not embarrassing each other, it didn't matter what sex you married. Shouldn't matter today either, it's like they don't affect your lives! And more important issues should be addressed, like global warming and the 3000 homeless children just in Indianapolis. OR the 26,000 that die a day from starvation. Gays getting married shouldn't even be an issue.

  • @crobexplosion Not if you believe in Adam and Eve

  • @XCyclonusX Actually that's incorrect. Even so, it doesn't mention anything about marriage in that story. IMO believing that the bible is legitimate history is foolish. I went to a Catholic private high school and a nun told me that the old testament is most definitely a concoction of bed time stories to get the kids to go to sleep and that taking the bible literally isn't what it's all about. People couldn't live to 900 yrs in the Bronze age, and they can't now.

  • @XCyclonusX Also, if you are a Christian, you believe that Jesus established the religion, and therefore happened thousands of years after the actual beginning of mankind. So that argument is null.

  • @crobexplosion oh my god. that's the reason all creationists need to hear. bravo my friend, bravo

  • @duckcluck123 haha, yeah... but they're so close minded (well most of them; I don't wanna stereotype them into something that some of them aren't) and they don't listen to facts. It's kinda sad and it hinders our ability to make progress.

  • @crobexplosion Hahaha, of course they don't listen to facts. I was once a 11 years old sort of religious child who 'listened to Darwin', and then I was a 11 years old atheist. If you ignore logic in such a trivial thing, you might as well ignore everywhere else. And isn't Romney a mormon? If so, that's even worse.

  • "I oppose same-sex marriage, but I'm making efforts not to discriminate against gays."

    yeah, Mitt, that makes sense.

  • Look, It's all stupid, who needs a peice of paper saying their married. If you love each other it shouldn't really matter. Also, marriage is a Christian event, its their right to deny gays to get married because it goes against what they believe. What society needs to do is make a new type of marriage called it a "Union" that is like a wedding, but doesn't come froma religious background.

  • @KyleMPulley: "marriage is a Christian event"

    -- There are about 2 billion Christians in the world, Kyle. Do you really think none of the other 5 billion ever get married?

    Who needs a "stupid piece of paper"? Anyone who must make emergency medical decisions for a sick spouse. A veteran who wants to be buried next to his spouse like all other veterans. A widow who doesn't want to lose her family home just to pay the inheritance that married widows are exempt from. Your ignorance is astounding.

  • @hanohanonacowboy I didn't say the other 5 billion don't get married. And all the things you said you "need a piece of paper for" you can do without being married. Its simple, you have one group of people who in a sense "own" a ceremony with beliefs that directly conflict with gays participating in that ceremony. You can't tell jews how to have bar mitzvah's. Same concept applys here. I'm neither Christian, or oppose gay rights. It's just the truth.

  • @KyleMPulley: "you have one group of people who in a sense "own" a ceremony "

    -- Christians do not "own" marriage in the same way that only Jews have bar mitzvahs. Jews marry. Muslims do, too. So do Hindus and people of no religious faith at all. Nor do all Christians deny marriage to same-sex couples.

    You are either too proud or too ignorant to admit you simply don't know what you are talking about.

  • @hanohanonacowboy Your making a common mistake, yes Jews marry's but there religion is very similar to straight Christian. But lots of culture do not marry...They have ceremonies that represent the same thing, the joining of 2 people...but its not "marriage" that's just a term people use to summarize the type of ceremony. Marriage is a Christian ceremony. Christians don't believe in same sex partnerships, so it would be considered a disgrace to them and their traditions to have it happen.

  • @KyleMPulley Kyle, you are embarrassing yourself with your ignorance. The majority of world cultures marry. ALL countries on earth have laws regulating marriage. Not "ceremonies that represent the same thing". Marriage.

    Marriage existed for thousands of years before Christianity existed. Many of the laws in the Old Testament have to do with regulating marriage; they were written at least 1500 years B.C. Jesus himself attended a wedding; the bride and groom were very definitely NOT Christian.

  • @KyleMPulley: "Marriage is a Christian ceremony. Christians don't believe in same sex partnerships"

    -- My pastor thinks you have no clue what you're talking about, Kyle. So does his husband.

  • @hanohanonacowboy Not going to argue with you on bible facts...(ie horse shit) I really don't care what your paster, you, or anyone of faith thinks...because your all delusional

  • @KyleMPulley  Divorce just slides right on by unnoticed I guess? If tradition and Gods word is so important too these "Christians" then why allow divorce after a marriage? How does it go? "Therefore they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder." I guess it can be changed when it's beneficial to the majority..Hmmmm?

  • @KyleMPulley have you ever heard of the separation of church and state?

    christians arnt the only people who are legally allowed to marry

    jews, muslims, atheists all legally marry the same way christians do

    gays dont want to marry in the biblical sense, they want to be legally married and have the same rights and benefits that hetero married couples have

  • one the only things I liked coming out of this guys mouth

  • Human rights should never be put to a vote, especially when it is a minority!

  • Hey, Prop 8 is unconstitutional..Period..The majority can not vote on a minority..To do so is bias and unethical. If this was the case, slavery would have been popular for a lot longer than it was.. :/

  • Dislike this comment all you want, but I believe that marriage is when a man and a woman comes together in legal and/ or holy unity. To me, if gay people want to get "married", then they should call it something else. That simple. In my opinion, homosexual "marriage" would be like trying to use Football rules in a Basketball games. It just doesn't make sense to me. Oh well. I'm ready for the bombardment of disagreeing comments.

  • faggot's babbling

  • all these candidates are such clowns, they just say what is convenient to win election.

  • He actually doesn't seem that bad in this. Obviously gay marriage should be allowed, but he's taking a fairly mild stance in this video. Wow

  • @lovelybeastification obviously it should in no wise even be considered, much less allowed, you dam fool.

  • @tomcat624u why not?

  • @lovelybeastification BECAUSE YOUR A FKN COMPLETE, INCOMPETENT AZZWIPE!!!! THATS WHY.

  • @tomcat624u You are a fucking idiot. If you really think we should outlaw gay marriage you're flat out stupid.

  • What a sleaze. "Which response would get me elected? Ill pick that one"

  • (Stupid Journalist) All Romney know is that he needs there votes and his tax returns better be what he calculated and his chef is serving meat loaf, mush potatoes, corn, green beans and lemonade. (OK)

  • Typical politician. Always avoids the question.

  • he looks like a President but there's just something about him that is not genuine....anybody else think so?

  • @amici43 yeah, the fact that he wants to be president

  • hypocritical faggot

  • I used to worry about Obama being re-elected, but now I think it's a very high probability since the two republican candidates are so extreme. Any sane person would still vote for Obama over crazy Romney and weirdo Santorum. God it's a freak show this year.

  • @ShihTzusShit RON PAUL IS THE ONLY CLEAR CHOICE, YOU DAYUM FOOL!!!!

  • The only possible reason to oppose gay marriage is one of religious contention. So it's completely disingenuous to talk about 'separating personal faith from matters of leadership'.

  • What's really pathetic is that Romney says he wants to use a Constitutional amendment to remove the right to marry from citizens of his own state--the state where was governor for 4 years. He wants to pass a law to take Massachusetts couples who've been married for 7 years now and have them forcibly divorced against their will.

    If this is the way this shameless hypocrite stands up for the citizens of his own state, how could anyone ever expect him to stand up for all Americans?

  • @hanohanonacowboy Not forcibly divorced, the "marriages" are just void.

  • @Renagade1325 - yes, I travel all over the world for work ... parts of America are just as religiously fanatical as the most Muslim countries I have been to ... it is just another dogma that those parts of America are into ...

  • Good for Him! He doesn't have to be a use his religion to defend his political stand points. Score one for Romney.

  • 1:17 At least he concludes with this. I don't agree with him but at least this shows some integrity.

  • Obama 2012 cause hes not a bigot

  • @007wrestlingking FK U 2

  • FUCK him honestly this pisses me off so much, damn i wish i was old enough to vote.

  • You got to be an ASSHOLE to vote for this IRRATIONAL LUNATIC.

    America is DOOMED.

  • We need to turn a corner in this country and get over this aversion to gay people. Romney & Santorum are religious kooks who work backwards from their ancient bibles. These are dangerous men.

  • @Sweence Id' rather have men that hold morals and actually attempt to serve a righteous god with fear and respect rather than a atheist leader who is lawless and doesn't believe in a god at all. By the way, if anyone is dangerous, it is surely Obama with all his corruption, scandals and socialist agenda that is putting America in debt for decades to come.

  • @cobra3385 Atheists are "Lawless"? Atheists have been the greatest contributors to scientific advancements and are the most philanthropic. Look at Warren Buffet, Bill Gates & George Clooney who donate billions to African charities with NO religious agenda. Also, an Atheist will NEVER fly a plane into a building or bomb an abortion clinic. Please take your head out of your ass.

  • @Sweence Don't forget Albert Einstein, Andrew Carnegie(also a philantropist), Pavlov, Sigmund Freud, Warren Buffet, Carl Sagan, George Carlin, Jesse Ventura, Steven Hawking, and Mark Zuckerberg(Facebook lol).

  • @Sweence Funny how they donate to Africa but yet won't donate a damn dime to the hard working middle class in America who actually deserve a real donation. Those men you mentioned are classic socialists thinkers who want too redistribute our wealth to foreign people that don't even deserve it, as ALL of them are Obama contributors. It's easy for them to get on camera and appear righteous with their phony donations but when the cameras off, see if you'll get a damn dime little American

  • @cobra3385 You're shifting the subject but allow me to straighten you out anyway. None of these men are socialist thinkers. Just good charitable human beings who earned their money because of capitalism. The situation in Darfur is more dire than anything in this country where lazy, spoiled shitheads play with their gadgets and pray to an imaginary man rather than getting off their asses and innovating.

  • @cobra3385 "Funny how they donate to Africa but yet won't donate a damn dime to the hard working middle class in America who actually deserve a real donation"

    You know what's not funny at all, how you believe starving children don't deserve aid from the wealthy. You are what's wrong with this world. That is the complete opposite of what REAL Christians believe. If you're going to talk the talk, man up and walk the walk you coward. You are a disgrace to the Christian faith. You worship your flag

  • @Stefandurrr Putting a gun to people's heads and forcing them to cough up cash for your beliefs is not Christian either. Nor an act of freedom. It's tyranny. And there is no such thing as 'just tyranny'.

  • @dbsommers1 What? When did I say anything about supporting robbery?

  • @Stefandurrr So now your a Christian all the sudden? Make up your mind. Well first of all I'm not Christian, I am a Jew. And second of all, your twisting my words to make it seem like it's a crime to donate to the poor as you completely missed the point. Religious institutions have done more for the poor than any self-serving athiest that puts on a act (most of them) for their charities. Just look at Bill Clinton and his Haitian fund as the haitians over there never saw the money.

  • @cobra3385 Look at what atheism has done to China and Russia and other countries. Atheist ran countries are always violating human rights with their abortions, redistribution of people's hard earned wealth to people that don't work (which is stealing) and robbing peopleof their freedoms and god-given liberties

  • @cobra3385 You're saying that Atheism caused China & Russia's problems? Are you kidding? Atheism isn't a religion any more than abstinence is a sexual position. Maniacal dictators who are also non-religious never killed anyone in the name of Atheism. They also happen to have mustaches but you wouldn't say that people with mustaches are prone to killing. It's an erroneous association commonly made by religious idiots.

  • @Sweence be\cause they think different from you.... he's allowed to believe what he believes

  • @TheSteeletube Huh? Please try and form a coherent response so that I may retort properly.

  • He is such a shithead. anyone who morally controls you or me has no right to LIVE much less lead us. Stick to issues, not morals. fuck your stupid-ass religion.... almost nobody believes ANY of that shit anymore. Santa Claus and Jesus... same damn thing.

  • @BoudicaSlade People thought the same thing about Kennedy. But the Vatican wasn't pulling the strings behind his presidency.

  • @disposablefreedom YOU need to learn the difference between there, their, and they're.

  • @juanjoseantoniopedro THey're=They are, Their shows ownership, and there is a reference to place or position.. If I have made mistakes, and probably have with these terms, what can I say? I am only human, and I don't have time to be precise.. Maybe you should pay attention to punctuation in the future, just as I need to pay attention to propper termanology.. Just saying.. O_o

  • @juanjoseantoniopedro Last time I checked, we weren't in a spelling bee, or an English class..Youtube has become one huge debate.. Ethics, is where it pays off in the long run..

  • Mitt handled that well. Im not for him. Im for Dr. Paul. But I think he handled that better than that rat fuck Santorium would have.

  • Is anyone still under the impression that the Republicans don't hate gay people? Is anyone still buying the cover story of "protecting the sanctity of marriage" or whatever elitist, racist, Christianist, homophobic propaganda they're spewing forth like sheer, concentrated stupid?

  • Mitt Romney is like the govenor from south park.

    "You will be called... BUTT BUDDIES"

    "Instead of man and woman you will be Buutt Buuuudies."

  • RON PAUL 2012!!!!!!

  • @tomcat624u fuck you

  • @puckle3 YO MAMMY DID!!!!!!

  • @tomcat624u oh wait i thought you said romney :O <3

  • @tomcat624u Obama 2012.

  • @AScearce2332 NO WAY , PUNK!!!!!

  • @JakobiaP If you truly are willing to look at Christianity with an open mind if provided with evidence, I encourage you to read "The Case for Christ." It's a book written about the experience of an atheistic journalist from Chicago that literally searched for evidence that there was (or wasn't) a God for 2 years. He came to a pretty interesting conclusion.

    P.S. "Metal Illness" lol.

  • @MoonShoesPotter07 You shouldn't base Christians on people like this moron.  To me, it sounds more like a troll that's trying to make Christians look stupid. While I don't agree with gay marriage, I don't believe marriage should be a part of government. Marriage started in religion and grew from there so it should stay there. Gay people should have the same legal rights as a married couple, but shouldn't get married.

    I tend to not make sense sometimes, understand what I'm trying to say?

  • @tgurau

    Actually, marriage existed long before Christianity. Just to let you know. :) Marriage is a legal contract more than anything, and if two consenting adults want to enter into that contract, by all means. Let them.

  • @DrewLandcaster JESUS GAVE MARRIAGE TO A MAN A WOMAN, YOU DAYUM INCOMPETENT , FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!

  • @DrewLandcaster Actually, The Bible begins at the creation of man, so the only thing before Chrstianity is God. Besides, people get married in church, seperate it from the state; that's all I'm saying.
