'You cannot have liberty with marriage redefined to include homosexual marriage.' - Doug Wardlow (R)

The next MN Attorney General will be Doug Wardlow (R) or Keith Ellison (D).

In 2013:

- Wardlow said the quote against gay marriage in the title of this post. http://www.startribune.com/faith-leaders-denounce-wardlow-mailers-attacking-keith-ellison/497970241/

- Keith Ellison sang, "This Land is Your Land" in support of gay marriage. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/01/keith-ellison-gay-marriage-minnesota_n_3689559.html


I'm voting for Keith Ellison for MN AG.

If you're concerned about Karen Monahan's accusation, then please read this timeline I wrote:

What passes for liberty is not so libertine when it comes to quashing the freedoms of others.

There was probably nobody with enough sense present to respond, “That makes no sense.”

...in his speech:

- The US Constitution is for religious people.

- We need the US Constitution for liberty.

- Gay marriage is against religious people, and so it's against the US Constitution, and so it's against liberty.

I don't think that makes sense. I'm voting for Keith Ellison (D) for MN Attorney General.

We need Democrats in office to make sure everyone has a chance to get a good education.

Repugnants are terrible at logic and reason.

and it sort of implies "liberty" for religious people means the "liberty" to impose their rules on others.
