The Truth

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

It is fascinating how when a politician runs for national office, he/she is infected with what I call the "ME-TO-ISM!"

Even Hillary Clinton and Rudy Giuliani are rethinking their anti-gun beliefs that they held for years. With her back firmly pushed against the wall, Clinton somewhat came out against granting drivers licenses to illegal aliens in her state. This was an outlandish proposal pushed by the Empire State's arrogant governor. Following a huge public outcry, Elliot Spitzer backed down on this suicidal political plan. It was suicidal not so much for him, but for the slate of democratic presidential candidates who had to "Pee-Pee, Or Get Off The Pot."

This brings us to "Slick Mitt Romney," the erstwhile governor from the state of Massachusetts. Gay marriage opponent in this New England state say Slick Mitt was "Down For The Homosexual Struggle At One Time," that is, until he decided to run for President of the United States. Slick Mitt knew that this volatile issue would not play in middle America, or in the South. So, it appears this man with the "Used Car Salesman's Looks," had to re-invent himself. Slick Mitt by some accounts, has now kicked his gay pals to the curb. Maybe he thought, "What One Does In Massachusetts, Stays In Massachusetts!"

Opponents of gay marriage in Massachusetts are saying, "Not So Fast To Slick Mitt. Some of these people in Romney's home state are telling the world that "Slick Mitt" was in the vanguard of the gay marriage push. Larry Cirgnano, the former President of Catholic Citizens in Massachusetts says, "At least a dozen Justices of the Peace resigned," after Romney told them they had to go, if they didn't officiate at cermonies involving gays. Cirgnano said Romney took this unprecedented action even before the Massachusetts legislature acted on gay marriage, following the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's decision to "Make Law, Instead Of Interpreting Same."

This is what Romney's chief legal counsel at the time, Daniel Winslow told justices of the peace following the Supreme Court's  slap in the face of the people in that state:

"My message was, you took an oath, and you don't have to agree or disagree with the law, you took an oath to uphold the law. Your job is to follow the law. We'll leave it to the courts to litigate what the law is, but once the courts have ruled, if you've taken an oath under the constitution, you have to follow your oath"

It is interesting that the people of Massachusetts are overwhelmingly against gay marriage. However, it didn't stop the Supreme Court of that state, and apparently "Slick Mitt Romney" from shoving gay marriage down the throats of reluctant residents. One former JP, Kathleen Harvey said she had to step down because of her conscious and her conviction:

"I chose to resign. I personally didn't feel that same-sex marriages were marriages. If they were civil unions, I don't think that would have bothered me, but I personally didn't feel they were marriages. I just didn't want to be officiating at one of those ceremonies"

You have to applaud this woman. I say this because in the wake of the Supreme Court, stepping in and forcing this controversial issue on the people of the state of Massachusetts, she didn't take on the role of hypocrite, something apparently, "Slick Mitt Romney Is," according to his detractors. This woman's values were too important for her to "Talk Out Of Both Sides Of Her Mouth." It is too bad that we don't have politicians today with half of the value system that this brave woman posseses!

According to former Massachusetts lawmaker, Brian Camenker, Romney not only issued an edict ordering the justices to perform gay marriages, he, Romney also had "New Marriage Certificates" printed up. These new certificates replaced the titles, "Husband and Wife, With , Party A and B." How cute!

Camenker asserted that Romney didn't have to do anything. However, he became as Camenker put it, "A Major Force In Creating Same-Sex Marriage." Camenker believes the socialists press helped Romney cover his weasel like behavior. You will recall that Romeny invoked a little known 1913 Massachusetts law that said only in-state residents,(homosexuals) could marry. Camenker says this action taken by Romney is what the socialists press attached themselves to, and reported nationwide. The press never talked about the central role that "Slick Mitt" played in paving the way for homosexual marriages in Massachusetts, according to Camenker.

The Romney camp has denied Camenker's charges. Nonetheless, Camenker who heads a group known as Mass Resistance says his group plans to send e-mails to "hundreds and hundreds of Republicans in Iowa." Iowa will hold it caucas in a couple of days. Camenker also says his group will be more proactive in getting the word out to voters in New Hampshire regarding "Slick Mitt's" record on gay marriage while governor.

New Hampshire will hold its primary on January eighth.

Time will tell if Slick Mitt is telling the truth on this very controversial issue. It is obvious that someone is not being honest on who led the fight in the Capitol in Massachusetts on the issues of homosexual marriages!

The state of Massachusetts has isolated itself on the issue of gay marriage. When you think about it, these aren't really marriages. Those who have taken part in these pseudo-marriages can not file joint income national tax returns. And No other state, save Massachusetts, recognizes what I see as an affront and attack on "Traditional Marriages."

This is my last column for the year 2007. Look for a major push from homosexuals on several fronts in the new year. Pay particular attention to the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell Policy." Activists homosexual groups want the military to drop this policy whereby gays can serve in the military, as long as they don't reveal their sexual preference.

The democrat presidential candidates are already on board with the gay community on repealing this policy. Are your surprised?

Look for the culture war to really heat up in 2008.
