Perry signs pledge to protect marriage,oppose homosexual ‘marriage’
Presidential candidate Rick Perry has signed a pledge that if elected president he will protect the traditional definition of marriage and oppose homosexual “marriage,” reports LifeSiteNews.com.
The Republican Texas governor joins Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann and Rick Santorum in signing the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) pledge.
“Kudos to Gov. Rick Perry for making it clear: he’s a marriage champion,” National Organization for Marriage (NOM) president Brian Brown said in an August 26 statement.
“By doing so, Perry makes crystal clear that, contrary to the conventional wisdom, gay marriage is going to be a bigger issue in 2012 than it was in 2008, because the difference between the GOP nominee and President Obama is going to be large and clear,” Brown said. “We look forward to demonstrating that being for marriage is a winning position for a presidential candidate.”
