More than 400 prominent Republican names have signed onto a letter in support of “gay marriage” and the passage of the Respect of Marriage Act, which would protect such couplings in federal law and repeal the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, which defined marriage as the union of one man and one woman.
What a sad sad day as America falls further and further into yet another Sodom and Gomorrah like cesspool laughed at around the world.
News on the letter started surfacing on Monday, and the list of names was released today by the Centerline Action organization. A new organization that describes itself as “focused on forging consensus to advance centrist policy solutions capable of defending core constitutional freedoms and liberties, preserving a free market economy, and limiting the role of government in Americans’ everyday lives.”
In a post of the GOP names, Centerline Action states “Republicans & Conservatives Across America Call on the U.S. Senate to Preserve the Freedom to Marry.” The Respect for Marriage Act, which passed in the House in July, is awaiting a vote in the Senate.
To avoid the filibuster on this in the US Senate, Democrats would need to pick up at least 10 Republicans to vote that way for the 60 votes needed.
GOP Senators Susan Collins (Maine), and Rob Portman (Ohio) are co-sponsors of the Respect for Marriage Act. Senator Thom Tillis(R-North Carolina) supports the legislation, and Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) has also said she backs gay marriage.
Centerline Action’s letter-announcement further states, “As Republicans, Libertarians and politically independent conservatives, we believe strong families and lasting relationships strengthen communities, and civil marriage is a fundamental freedom central to individual liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We stand with the 71 percent of Americans today, including a majority of registered Republicans, who support the freedom to marry for all Americans.”
“Together, we call on the U.S. Senate to pass the Respect for Marriage Act and reaffirm that marriage for gay and lesbian couples is settled law. Passing the Respect for Marriage Act will remove any uncertainty for the more than one million Americans who are building families, taking on the commitment and responsibilities associated with marriage, and caring for the one they love. Simply put, the Respect for Marriage Act treats all American families as each of us would want to be treated.”
Some of the 400-plus names of prominent Republicans who support “gay marriage” include,
Bob Packwood, former U.S. senator for Oregon
John Danforth, former U.S. senator for Missouri
Christopher Cox, former U.S. representative for California and chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

There’s a definite typo in the title for this article. “Republicans” is not the proper name for those 400-plus people who CLAIM they REPRESENT US!
Instead, that word should be removed immediately and one, some, or all of the following used as a substitute:
“RINOS”, “Traitors”, “Liars”, “Helpful Idiots”, “Thieves”, “Deprave Minded Individuals”, “Morally Bankrupt Officials”, “Sodom and Gomorrah Supporters”, “Shameless and indecent government officials”, “Kickback Lover$”, “Obedient NWO Supporters”, and/or “God’s-Laws-Can-Go-To-Hell Representatives!
We are to love the sinner but NOT the SIN. And if our Lord says that a man should not lie with another man as he would a woman…and a woman should not lie with another woman as she would a man, then I’m standing with the LORD, not sin-loving MEN who claim to be our “representatives”!
