GOP Congressman holds to traditional views despite son coming out of closet

Kudos to this Congressman for holding to his traditional values despite his son becoming gay. Though I’m sure the MSM will ignore him unless they need someone to attack:

AZFAMILY – Arizona congressman Matt Salmon isn’t ready to change his opinion on gay marriage.

In a recent interview with 3TV, Salmon said that while he has a son who is gay, he’s not a supporter of same-sex marriage.

“I’m just not there in believing in my heart,” said Salmon, adding, “My son is one of the most important people in my life. I love him more than I can say.”

Rep. Salmon has maintained a reputation as a staunch social conservative throughout his political career.

Republican Senator Rob Portman recently announced that he had changed his opinion on same-sex marriage after learning that his son is gay.

“It doesn’t mean I don’t have respect, it doesn’t mean I don’t sympathize with some of the issues, it means I haven’t evolved to that station, Rob Portman apparently has,” said Salmon.
