Rick Perry signs the Hate Group's Marriage Pledge


Ricky just made a huge mistake. After hanging out at the Family Leader's bath house in Iowa, he decided to sign their anti-gay marriage pledge:
 A few days after appearing at a Family Leader forum, Texas Gov. Rick Perry is the latest GOP presidential candidate to sign the group’s controversial marriage pledge.

The pledge advocates several issues, including the Defense of Marriage Act, personal fidelity to the signee’s spouse, appointment of “faithful constitutionalists” as judges, and reformation of anti-marriage elements in divorce, tax and welfare laws.

Family Leader head Bob Vander Plaats has said signing the pledge will be a prerequisite for the group’s endorsement, one coveted among candidates seeking to nab the evangelical vote.
Well, I guess he has nothing to lose at this point.
