SUBMITTED BY Brian Tashman on Thursday, 6/19/2014 12:05 pmRep. Tim Huelskamp, the chief sponsor of the Federal Marriage Amendment, had a message for every man in America at todays March for Marriage: Your woman, your wife, she needs you, its time you become a real man and stand up.
Possibly under the impression that the legalization of same-sex marriage will break up opposite-sex unions, the Kansas Republican congressman emphasized that he loves his wife and believes that men who love their wives must join the fight to stop marriage equality.
Be a real man of God because this is about you and your wife and your children, he said.

(1,210 posts)1. Real men are in partnerships
with their wives - and it doesn't matter the gender of either.

(13,459 posts)2. That doesn't even sound rational
It would be nice if these people were pressured to explain what they mean by their catch phrases. Stand up for your wives? So why would I divorce my husband because of gay people being allowed to get married? Will we disagree on a wedding gift for somebody or what??????

while worrying about the uncertainty that God might be watching them...

while blaming their sinful desire on teh gay.

My wife is a conservative republican, and even she doesn't need his advice.
'Conservative', in her case, means: 'It's none of my business. Live and let live."
