'We're just blessed!' Leaked audio reveals anti-marriage equality Republican's speech at gay son's wedding


Rep. Glenn Thompson (R-PA) earlier this week came under fire for attending his gay son's wedding just days after he voted against a bill in the House of Representatives that codified marriage equality as the law of the land.

Now BuzzFeed News has obtained a leaked audio recording of Thompson's speech at his son's wedding where he does not bring up his own vote against a law that would have ensured his own son's right to marry regardless of future Supreme Court rulings.

Rather, Thompson praised his son for finding a man with whom he could spend the rest of his life, while also praising his new son-in-law as a welcome addition to the family.

"This has been a really good experience... to have a new son enter the family," he said. "So we’re just blessed, and we just want to say thank you to everyone here as part of the celebration."

When asked earlier this week about his decision to vote against codifying marriage equality, Thompson accused House Democrats of engaging in "nothing more than an election-year messaging stunt for Democrats in Congress who have failed to address historic inflation and out of control prices at gas pumps and grocery stores."

However, Democrats have countered that this vote was necessary after the Supreme Court overturned the landmark Roe v. Wade decision and Justice Clarence Thomas said the court should look into overturning the Obergefell ruling that legalized LGBTQ marriage in the United States.

Listen To The Speech A Republican Lawmaker Gave At His Gay Son’s Wedding Day

Wearing a black tuxedo and black bowtie, Pennsylvania Republican Rep. Glenn Thompson toasted his son and new son-in-law, both of whom sat before him, wearing wedding white blazers. Standing next to his wife, the member of Congress told the guests how “blessed” he felt to celebrate the men’s marriage and to welcome a new member into his family. Thompson said any parent hopes and prays that their child stays healthy, finds their way, and ultimately finds “that one true love so that they have the opportunity to experience that: someone to grow old with.”

“We love it when they find their one true love, especially when they become a part of our families then. That’s what we’re rooting for,” Thompson said, praising his son for his selection of a husband.

"We really appreciate you all being here, and being a part of that. You know, as a parent — parents have hopes and dreams, right, with their kids, from the time that they’re born and they’re creeping and crawling and walking and falling over and walking again, and all the things that they learn right through their teens and into becoming adults. We have hopes and dreams. First of all, obviously, we hope right from the beginning, it’s all about having a healthy child. But it’s about being healthy. It’s about them being healthy. We hope for safety. We’re hoping that they find their way, find opportunity, they find inspiration. And as they grow and as they get a little older, we also hope and pray they’re going to find that one true love so that they have the opportunity to experience that: Someone to grow old with. So we’re just really thankful that you’re here. It actually goes beyond that, as parents. We love it when they find their one true love, especially when they become a part of our families then. That’s what we’re rooting for. We’ve been fortunate with three sons, and [REDACTED]’s done a great job of adding to the family. Every kid showed up through cesarean section so it wasn’t all pleasant, right! So this has been a really good experience, especially for Penny, to have a new son enter the family! So we’re just blessed, and we just want to say thank you to everyone here as part of the celebration."

The silence from the GOP contingent of JPP speaks volumes!
 
The whole gay hate thing is bullshit



It’s in every family



Racists want people to have white babies


That is what all the anti abortion and gay hate is about for real



They want more white babies


Confused and hounded gay people often try to live a hetro life


They are often miserable doing it


But they still end up parents



That is all racists care about



More white people to match against the minorities they fear a takeover from
