Yes, liberals value family , but not enough to recognize that a broken family is a tragedy. Divorce is actually worse than death as far as the grieving process goes- especially when there are children, custody battles, parental support, and alimony involved. And homosexuals raising children? That is tragic, not something to be celebrated. Maybe if we'd *recognize* that a broken family is a tragedy we would be more willing to say, pay taxes for WIC so that the single mother working a minimum wage job actually has the ability to choose life. Maybe we'd have more men willing to stick around and help raise the children they cause because the condom broke while they were stupidly using sex only for recreation. Maybe, just maybe, we'd be raising men instead of a generation of cowardly wimps who choose homosexuality and suicide over real life. Suffering and tragedy is valuable- but only if we recognize that it exists.

But the very point is that you call them "homophobes and bigots"- you've decided that they aren't human. You have removed their humanity for merely agreeing with biological reality instead of fantasy, and you're willing to use the full power of government against them up to and including military might.
I realize it was a Republican who showed the way (Abraham Lincoln, in the issue of slavery), but why compound the error?
