mccain the brave idiot

Alright a man that i respected that realy can't decide what side of the fence he is on. As for hos war service and everything he went through i send out my sincerest thanks and respect. But and it is a big one how can you say in one sentence roe v. wade should be overturned by the courts (making abortion illegal) and then go on to say that gay marriage should be a decision made on a state by state basis? I expect my staunch republicans to fall one side of the fence not the other. I disagree with both statements is abortion right for me and mine maybe maybe not depends on circumstance but i would never say bob's wife can't do it or that at 15 year old after being raped can't do itor any number of other cases. As for gay marriage i don't realy care why should i now i don't think we should force the church to do it but why should a couple that has been together ten twenty thirty years not be afforded the same tax rights, as well as many other rights as the rest of us. If a same sex couple was together or any couple was together for say 20 years and one got sick and or died the other has no right to say what happens with the body or what treatment they should have or when it is time to pull the plug it goes to there parents and or children. I went through this one with my uncle he was with the same woman for over 20 years and in the end the decision went to his daughter instead of his spouse. IS that not completely rediculouse imagine if it was a small child say my mom and dad were gone and me and holly had never been married and i was sick they would go to my children even though me and holly have been together what ten years now my kids are five and six they can't make those decisions nor should they ever have to. even at 16 17 or 18 they shouldn't have to. That's why legaly binding a couple together is important i don't care if they are gay straight black or blue these things are important. It doesn't have to be about religion i could care less about that side of it it's about legal and not legal in these while they seem extreme circumstances that come up every day over and over again. You can say common law this and common law that but in all reality common law atleast in this state is way over stated and i don't even believe it's recognized. So to mccain thank you for what you did for me and my country i will alway's respect you for that. as for your views well afford the same freedoms you have and you faught for to the rest of the people in your country and get out of our lives and bed rooms. -Grant
