Interesting that the Old Coot is so worried about marriage. After all, upon his return from Vietnam, he kicked his dumpy, cancer-stricken wife to the curb and began an affair with the much younger (and richer) Cindy, the beer heiress from Phoenix. I guess as long as a penis and a vagina are involved (and $250 million), the Old Coot doesn’t care about honoring the vows of marriage.

I am really tired of John McCain. I think he has embarrassed himself enough. He should finally retire before he becomes a total joke.

Why isn’t anyone in the media pressing these anti-gay politicians/pundits now: specifically which factual findings or legal conclusions in the Prop 8 decision do they disagree with? (Has he even read the decision?) His opinion about marriage is irrelevant to constitutional analysis.

Which institution of marriage is he referring to? Marriage, when women were considered the property of the man? …or marriage, when you could only marry someone of the same race? …or is he referring to the sacred institution where Rush Limbaugh can get married for a 4th time?

Does Mr. McCain know that same-sex marriage is legal in 10 countries and 5 states? Canada has had marriage equality for 6 years. It hasn’t harmed the institution of marriage at all. Chile and Mexico are now considering legalizing same-sex marriage.

Perhaps he should have helped the Yes on 8 legal team come up with one valid legal reason to deny same-sex couples the right to marry. As far as the court is concerned, there aren’t any.

This is a surprise? He’s a strict-consructionist Republican, so he knows about judicial review of laws to make sure they pass Constitutional muster.

But hey, it’s election time, so he’s even reversed himself on DADT – formerly in favor of repeal and now opposed. He’s got to get the bigots’ votes to stay in office.

McCain has the values of a chameleon.
