United States News Title: Is Sneakypete To Gay To Understand This? Ive seen few if any conservatives who can stay on point and stay on issue like Ryan Anderson of the Heritage Foundation in this video. [Here's the short 4:25 video exchange between the homosexual and Ryan Anderson. Spot on response by Anderson, worth watching!] In a forum, a homosexual man asks Anderson why he and his partner shouldnt be able to file a joint tax return like married couples can. While most conservatives (if they can even answer this question at all, to their shame) fall back on circular arguments and just because, Anderson illustrates where the principle embraced by the Left leads. Ideas have consequences, and if you are willing to embrace an idea, you must be willing to embrace where that idea leads. When the homosexual man claims he can get married in California, Ryan responds: You can be issued a marriage license in the state of California, but you cant actually get married. And Im sorry to say it that way, but given what marriage is, its not discrimination because everyone is equally eligible for entering into the marital relationship, where you understand marriage as a union of sexually complimentary spouses, a permanent, exclusive union of man and woman, husband and wife, mother and father. If youre not interested in entering into that sort of a union, youre not being discriminated against. He summarizes and concludes: Its not that you dont have the right to get married. Its that you arent seeking out marriage. Marriage is by nature a union of sexually complimentary spouses, a unit of man and woman, husband and wife, mother and father. And just based on what youve said about yourself, it doesnt sound like youre interested in forming that sort of a union. It sounds like youre interested in forming a union with another man, and thats not a marriage. Anderson goes straight to the principle behind the whole issue, and wont be distracted from it. This is why I always call counterfeit marriage what it is: counterfeit marriage. It is not gay marriage. It is not same sex marriage. It is most assuredly not marriage. It is counterfeit marriage, just like a counterfeit $20 bill is a counterfeit $20 bill, not my $20, not another $20, not a different $20, not a special $20, not $20" at all. Rights are not being denied to homosexuals. Homosexuals have the same right to get married that anyone else has, therefore, there is no discrimination or denial of rights whatsoever going on. If a person isnt willing to do what it takes to be recognized as something, then they have no right to be recognized as that something. If you arent willing to do the work it takes to run and win a marathon, you arent entitled to call yourself a marathon winner. If you arent willing to do what it takes to become a parent, you arent entitled to call yourself a parent. If you arent willing to start a small business, you arent entitled to call yourself a small business owner. If you arent willing to do the work it takes to become a Harvard graduate, you arent entitled to call yourself a Harvard graduate. If you arent willing to go to the police academy and do what it takes to graduate, you arent entitled to call yourself a cop. If you arent willing to serve in the military, you arent entitled to call yourself a veteran. It isnt rocket science, folks. All it takes is simple logic and reason, and a commitment to stick with the truth. Conservatives: get your act together, learn about the issues, and then get about the task of defending whats important. If you arent willing to do that, then you have no justification to bellyache about the Lefts attack on all that is right and good.

Just a thought... Anderson fails to address the question, and instead focuses on the "definition" of marriage, in his opinion. What should be discussed, is whether or not there is a legal difference between the tax status of a business partnership return-or a corporate return, and a personal tax return. The argument can be made that because a business partnership does not have any duty to establish the sex of the partners...likewise a married couple has no duty to establish their respective sexes either......
