"Love Makes a Family" -- Happy Holidays from MoveOn.org

[KristinandIdinagirl]

I'm being raised by my mother and grandmother only and I have the most loving family in the world. LOVE makes a family!

[msfleursbliss]

Beautiful and true.

[nepaltrekkingguide]

I cordially respect & like it so much,and it is true- love makes a family.

[taralongbrownhair]

Who would dislike this?

[kbrules23]

i love this video....and not just because im in it. lol i love my fathers!!!

[tamosy]

@pantherjad ummm, you must be on the wrong page...this is about love and family all within a legal context. You need to find the pages that speak to your interests in the terms you are seeking...neither belong to this video clip. There are no victims here, lest you be counted as the victimizer. I however, see you as a victim of ignorance and have optimism that in time you will experience and embrace the truth.

I nearly burst into tears at the 1min mark.

[EvanescencePhantom]

All of these families are so beautiful. I love the diversity of them all, and most of all, I love that these people are doing what they're doing for their families and families like mine. This is what America needs to be seeing, not stupid political nastiness.

[FreddaKatey]

This is simply beautiful. A wonderful message for all times.

Thank you.

"A Right Delayed Is A Right Denied." — MLK

[curnon69]

@pantherjad Those that compare homosexual relationships to those who harm children and animals do nothing for their beliefs. There are hundreds of thousands of children living in group homes without having any parent to love them. There are hundreds of thousands of children being abused and neglected by their heterosexual parents. I see it every day working in one the largest emergency depts in FL. If being heterosexual was all it took to raise children we would not need prisons.

[knicks1616]

@pantherjad

good point

[YnotRivera1]

@knicks1616 listen up if you goin to address me come correct i ain't the one son! I'm tryen to keep my cool with u Im strate and was conceived by my father and mother but was raised by one. My father happened to be more in love w/his BLOOD MONEY,POWER and the street life more than his obligation to raise me into a man.He gave me life then took a life after a business transaction gone bad. So who's 2 say maybe things might of ben more stable haven same sex parents

[knicks1616]

@YnotRivera1 judging by your anger issues you are clearly lacking something. Its unfortunate and shows what happens without a loving mother and father are not around. Having 2 lesbo's or 2 gaylords in the house is redundent and not helpful. Its life having the ying without the yang. 10 gaylords in the house raising you will still not suffice for the absence of a loving mother. You'd would still be missing on something essential and important that may have helped you not have anger issues

[tamosy]

@knicks1616 Your label slinging begs the questions of who is angry. Not sure where your "anger" remarks come from, the video seemed filled with warm loving families. Maybe you need to look a little closer in the mirror and examine where the anger is really coming from... I hope you find peace. Best wishes for a wonderful new year.

[CoolThisIsMyUsername]

Why doesn't this video show polygamist couples or incestuous relationships?

The definition of family is lost with blind acceptance, blurred into the brutal inactivity of pacifism.

[CoolThisIsMyUsername]

@CoolThisIsMyUsername Well, "couples" isn't exactly the right word, I suppose.

[Topazmoon11]

@CoolThisIsMyUsername I'm not sure what your point is but I do agree, thinking philosophically and critically, with religious and legal strictures loosened, who is to say that any group of people who want to be publicly recognized as being a family is wrong? You have to be pretty open minded to accept all this could possibly entail, but ask yourself, if you believe that love makes a family, why does it have to be a couple?

[NobodysOffTheHook]

Beautiful. I watched it with the snow.

[BhindsNE]

A very nice video. Thanks for the boost.

[rodolfo1114]

Keep up the good work fighting the cause worth fighting for.

[daurif]

I love this video and it is time for everyone around the world to see that LOVE MAKES A FAMILY!!!

[DerekWilliamsMusic]

@knicks1616 If as you argue, "Normal" = "Good" and everything else by deduction is therefore "Bad", then Genius and Left Handedness must to you be "Bad" too, since they are not in any sense "Normal".

Should we do with left handed people as you want to do with homosexuals, forcing us gays to mate with females we're not attracted to, while you force left handed people to write right-handed, so as to fit with the Tyranny of the Majority?

Should be smash genius on the head to remove brain cells?

[WilfredWalterCarlos]

Very nice. Could this country be evolving at last?

[JackBS01]

@WilfredWalterCarlos Don't count on it. As we've learned in recent years, our government representatives don't always feel the need to actually represent us. It's well known that the majority of Americans want equality in all things(*), but as you can see from our laws, the ruling class rarely agrees.

[DerekWilliamsMusic]

lovely!

[vegangothboards]

Fleas Navidad! Love it!

[YnotRivera1]

You know what really this is about it's about humanity. How is it you can says depriving a child of a mother and father is selfish to Deprive them of two loving parents is selfish. Most of you making these mindless derogatory statements were raised by coed parenting witch is a perfect example of even two coed parents can get it wrong. If you had any decency you would articulate your opinions in a civil tone

[CLFBrooklyn]

@knicks1616 you have no idea of what you're talking about. It must be very sad, lonely and fearful in your world.

[agtw1952]

@knicks1616 Everyone who gets divorced is making the same "intentional" choice. My sisters and I were raised by a single mother and we all excelled in school all the way through graduate school, went on to have good careers and raise wonderful, successful children. From my perspective as a teacher and a grandmother, I can tell you that it's not about gender, it's about values and caring. I wouldn't trade my single mother upbringing for anything.

[time2sit]

Love is more than just a feeling - it is also a choice. Yes to this lovely statement and yes to love!

[pantherjad]

@time2sit Well said. Love is more than a feeling, its a choice. We probably shouldn't choose lifestyles that fundamentally undermine nature; rather lets choose to find love in ways that create families endorsed by mother nature.

[xusmcguy]

@knicks1616 Hmmm....yet another ignorant BIGOT runs his sh*thole!

[WillRadle1]

Family Values: Love. What's government got to do with it? Nothing, so get out of our way because we got Family right here!

[INDEquality]

Thanks so much for putting this together. When we put real faces with the issue we help open the eyes of those that fear LGBT couples and families. We're all the same - just trying to make it through the day and support each other. No reason to add hate to the mix.

Keep up the great work!

[EmeraldView]

Are you sure? Because I thought the BIBLE tells us that it's a penis and a vagina that makes a family, and nothing else.

At least that's what the American FAMILY Association, FAMILY Research Council, and Focus on the FAMILY, tells us. It's all about the penis and the vagina and love is irrelevant.

Could THEY, the self-appointed authorities, be wrong?

[heitlerklevans]

There's another video of the MoveOn photos, with a different song: Love Makes a Family (Two of a Kind)

[tkdmissile]

@truthforamerica May I have the honor of giving your comment it's first thumbs down? ;D

[depfox]

Great video LOVE is the best part of any family

[Gandxlxo]

:O love it....

[calhoun81670]

Famlies come in so mant shapes and forms which makes them so strong. Makes me proud to be an American.

[zoewade]

LOVE It! The video made my heart feel so much warmth.

[mw1126]

I love this. It's like fighting fire with water--the message of love and equality drowns out the gospel of hate and intolerance with absolutely no mudslinging. Beautiful job!

[smithbc81]

Beautiful and sweet. Right wing a holes, you've lost your battle for continued bigotry.

[prixator]

This is such a beautiful video - and, while watching, it occurred to me there is no way that the anti-equality side could ever present their message beautifully because their message must include hate, distrust, fear and ignorance (i.e. they must "demonize" pro-equality people to make their argument). There is no way to argue for excluding people without making those people look bad.

So, we will eventually prevail with our message of love and beauty.

[savreboy]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[roajf]

Beautiful! Simple, and to the point. Kudos.
