rick santorum says that gay marriage discourages straight marriages
let's see what his explanation let's take a look at this
from the bill o'reilly program senator equality
it
which advocates off really cares you know what you're all what the campaign
is and it has been very successful at that time
it has been very effective and not bent and the fact the matter is that's that's
a great big concern that i think a lot of folks have are out and let me
actually get into that keep part which and then to find which is of break here
this is the question does it discourage straight marriage if gay people can get
married
rick santorum says yes learn form that was unions
to provide the best opportunity to old again we don't know you can raise
children would we be discouraging heterosexual marriage by allowing gay
marriage
that i i believe we believe we were quiet because we'd be sec
and that marriages and about children high isn't about having children is
about raising children and when we say that
then of course you know the consequence are you're going to probably have less
children it's happening as we see a very happy in america that we've it before
this whole gay marriage today
we that we really have seen a change in what marriage is an american right so we
just disprove them so yet he just disprove the subway
even both
for the gay marriage debate we were seeing is a change in birthrates of
course we know why that is women now are choosing to first focus on their career
instead of staying home
and and birthing children raising children which is much more common in
the nineteen fifties and sixties we're seeing uh... because of the increased
longevity of the human race we're seeing people having children later on but i
want a focus on a different issue here
if marriage is about children
then why is it
that two people as long as one's a man and wonder woman
of any age
are able to get married
if they are not able to have children
and further
the only way
that gay marriage
would encourage people
uh... to not have
a straight marriage
would be if it's some kind of closeted individual
who has decided to enter into a sham marriage with someone of the opposite
sax simply for co you know social expediency and actually i would argue
that in that case it would be good for them to get out of that situation they
would be very good
if gay marriage discouraged
uh... people from getting in sharman marriages because they are closeted yeah
and direct the reason why the campaign
forward uh... you know tells u bt rights has been so effective is because it's
common sense did exactly right that's really the main thing rick i hate to
break a t s i'll take a break next i will talk to john nichols from the
nation
about
the dollar are chrissy what is the dollar are chrissy you watch this show
you should know you can basically by whatever you want in politics the more
dollars we have
the more stuff you can buy stay with us that's coming up next
