ace, a couple of things:

1) Is the gay rights movement not about measuring a person by the content of their character? If you support this idea of core values—and if Republicans do too—then this would mean supporting the idea of gay families as being legitimate families, including their right to have their marriages performed and recognized.

2) As one example, what is Glenn Beck calling for with regard to returning to core American values?

Would returning to these values you hint at make it easier for social change to accept homosexuality as a legitimate orientation? To accept the gay family?
