Thank you so much, senator Eichelberger.

21:15
Leach: How would he [Eichelberger] want to encourage stability in gay couples?
Eichelberger: I wouldn’t.  I mean they can practice whatever sexual activity they like to practice, but there’s no reason to give them special consideration.  We don’t give them special consideration in Pennsylvania for any reason.  Why in the world would we allow them to marry?
22:05
Leach:  How would he want to encourage stability in gay couples?
Eichelberger:  There is no reason to encourage that type of behavior in Pennsylvania.
24:20
Eichelberger:  That comes back to the definition of family and that’s where we differ.  We can call all kinds of things families.  I mean, we can say a 3 party marriage is a family, or 7 or 8 people or marrying younger and younger children these days .
25:00
Host:  Are you saying that by their very nature homosexual relationships are dysfunctional?
Eichelberger:  [Pause] Ummmm.  I guess I would say that.  I would say that.
38:50
Eichelberger:  This changes the definition of marriage, allowing same-sex, and then like I said, 5-10 years from now it’ll be polygamy, marrying younger people, it’ll be whatever…It won’t be a 6 year old, it’ll be a 15 year old, then it’ll be a 14 year old, then it’ll be a 13 year old.
49:40
Leach:  Should our only policy towards [same-sex] couples be one of punishment, to somehow prove that they’ve done something wrong?
Eichelberger: They’re not being punished. We’re allowing them to exist, and do what every American can do.  We’re just not rewarding them with any special designation.

Couldn't be any worse than being a right wing hick in the middle of nowhere in Ohio.

Thought Jesus never talked about homosexuality.

This man is abhorrent. He wants to ruin the lives of thousands of families in his state; he should not be in a position of authority.

If you're a US resident and feel strongly about this, please sign this petition:

Give me a break. "This man is abhorrent." Really? Do you know anything else about the man? Who he beat? What else he's done in the legislature?

First impressions are everything.

... so if I have an intense hate for Italians, but all my other qualities were perfect, and if I say "Ummm" before badmouthing Italians, it's justified?
