Rob Portman becomes only GOP Senator to endorse gay marriage.

Primary challenge in 2016? I'm sure the OHGOP has a more than fair share of nuts.

By 2016, I'm fairly confident all that will be left of the Tea Party will be bad memories of a bad joke. 2012 was their implosion, and they've only been making it worse for themselves since.

At any rate, as strongly as I disagree with him on a wide slate of issues, I congratulate Senator Portman for at least making the full about-face on this issue. Now I just wish I could get over the fact that he penned ACTA.

That's great but why does it take having a gay child for conservatives to have sympathy for gay rights?

Sometimes it takes facing modern reality personally for one to realize how wrong they were. It's happened to me in life.

EDIT: Or what Morgieb said. Bloody Australian ninjas.

Portman, you're on the wrong side of this issue now. Mr. Moderate, this wave will be stopped and stopped hard.

Funny coming from someone who seems to have been on the wrong side of human progress and decency since the day he was born.

Lets have this debate after you guys quit with the unjust gun grabbing shenanigans.  Leave our guns alone then we'll talk about the marriage issue.

Don't look at me, friend, I'm for gun rights. You were saying?

Alright, right about now, I feel confident in calling the Portmans the FFs of the month. Time will only tell if the Senator's status sticks, though.
