Now they care about kids?

Well…was just reading an article about the repub governor of Idaho and their futile efforts to overturn the court decision that said that the 14th amendment protects gay people and allows them to get married…and their primary argument (that they are still making despite numerous studies debunking their claims) is that children fare better when they are raised in heterosexual families. Since when have the repubs given a damn about kids? Not when they cut children’s health programs….not when they cut back on food stamps that help feed them…not when they oppose raising the minimum wage that would help their parents send them to school with a good breakfast….and not when they oppose everything that would give workers a voice and higher pay that would take the economic uncertainty away that causes so much stress in both parents and kids….this is just religious nonsense cloaked in fake caring for children that they have used for years to deny gays their rights…if they cared so damn much, they would have used the half million dollars they have spent on these suits to fund a school lunch program or health care for kids…but they don’t…geez…
