Stupid Republicans - Rep. Steve King (R-IA) Says Gay Marriage is Purely a Socialist Concept
KING: But if, there also would be no rational argument against group marriage. And I just take this along the rationale even further and would say if relationships between individuals cannot be prohibited by the state legislature then there is no ban that can actually be constitutional that would ban group marriage. And it wouldn’t have to be for reasons of, let me say, love or lust. It could be reasons of profitability or avoiding taxes or accessing benefits.

So in the end this is something that has to come with a, if there’s a push for a socialist society, a society where the foundations of individual rights and liberties are undermined and everybody is thrown together, living collectively off of one pot of resources earned by everyone. That is, this is one of the goals they have to go to is same-sex marriage because it has to plow through marriage in order to get to their goal. They want public affirmation. They want access to public funds and resources. Eventually all those resources will be pooled because that’s the direction we’re going. And not only is it a radical social idea, it is a purely socialist concept in the final analysis.

Stupid bloody bigot, I guess he thinks the log cabin Repubicans are also socialist?

What is it with Republicans and gay sex? Not getting enough while hiding in the closet?

2. A better summary of Republican views than mine.
I hate these bible clinging idiots, who seem only to read parts that justify their hate.

3. It doesn't have to make sense.
Just mention the buzz words 'gay marriage' and 'socialism' in the same speech, and the willfully uninformed will take it from there.

7. They already have the god angle all sewn up when it comes to 'teh gay.'
This is about branding socialism and homosexuality together. In their warped view, this is just another reason to incite people to hate.

9. Does King's stupid tube refill on a schedule?
It seems that my disgust and rage at this ass barely subside before he belches out another affront to decency and sanity.
