GAY TRUTH

Will pro-gay-marriage millionaires divide and conquer the GOP ? You and I know that marriage is not a partisan issue. Pro-marriage leaders like Democratic Sen. Rev. Rubén Díaz in New York , or Maryland Delegate Emmet Burns, are demonstrating that every day. But you and I also know that advocates of gay marriage have relentlessly sought to marginalize, stigmatize and suppress the voice of Americans who believe that to make a marriage you need a husband and wife.
