Does he? I'm not finding anything with him - stating that
[ In Reply To ..]he approves of it. All I can find are reports of liberals trying to take comments that were made and twist it into supporting it. Do you have a link with him actually saying he supports gay couples adopting?
Hope this helps - DD
[ In Reply To ..]Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said on Thursday that while he opposes same-sex marriage, he is “fine” with gay couples adopting children. The presumptive nominee also declined to criticize President Obama’s reversal on the issue, saying he would “respect the right of the president to reach the conclusion he has.”
In his most detailed comments to date on the issue of civil rights for gay people, Romney told Fox News host Neil Cavuto, “I know many gay couples that are able to adopt children. That’s fine. But my preference is that we ... continue to define marriage as the relationship between a man and a woman.”
The statement seemed to put Romney in the position of condoning same-sex families with children as long as the parents do not marry.
Later in the interview, he said, “I believe that my record as a person who has supported civil rights is strong and powerful. At the same time, I believe that marriage has been defined the same way for literally thousands of years by virtually every civilization in history, and that marriage is literally, by its definition, a relationship between a man and a woman. And if two people of the same gender want to live together, want to have a loving relationship, or even to adopt a child -- in my state individuals of the same sex were able to adopt children. In my view, that’s something that people have a right to do. But to call that marriage is something that in my view is a departure from the real meaning of that word.”
Correct. It seems that as long as gay people don't - "marry", it is OK with him. nm

Why confused? (msg) - Aunt Sue
[ In Reply To ..]Kids need homes. I'm more concerned with the halo over Barry's head on Newsweek magazine cover. Here we go again with the walking on water crap.
You saw that too - I don't mind having a gay president - but the halo has to go
[ In Reply To ..]Are they really that clueless?
I guess. As far as gay or not gay, I think (sm) - Aunt Sue
[ In Reply To ..]it could go either way, and I don't care one way or the other, but the halo looks so stupid. I don't know if the media is that clueless, but they certainly think WE are. Surprise, we're not.
Not the first time the print media - used the halo
[ In Reply To ..]And referenced him as a god. Getting sick of the Obama worship big time. Obama sits down *** like everyone else. SICK OF EVERYTHING OBAMA - Now, flame away!
totally agree - two left feet
[ In Reply To ..]The halo's gotta go. I tend to think it's meant to inflame people. I also think it's meant to insult - rather than compliment - the president.
I thought he approved - of
[ In Reply To ..]gays coupling. Not adopting?!?
