Draft Republican Platform Ratchets Up “Defense of Marriage”
Efforts to mitigate the antigay planks in the Republican Party platform appeared to suffer a setback Monday when two subcommittees approved draft language that supports a federal constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage and harshly criticizes the Obama administration for not defending the Defense of Marriage Act.
BuzzFeed obtained the drafts, which include the endorsements of the constitutional amendment and DOMA first reported by The Advocate, in addition to support for “campaigns underway in several other states" to amend constitutions to outlaw unions between spouses of the same sex.
Compared to the 2008 platform, which said that the Democratic Party had “unbelievably pledged to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act,” the proposed language for 2012 is more full-throated. The new document contains two mentions of an “activist judiciary” and levels a direct attack against the Obama administration.
“We oppose the Administration's open defiance of this constitutional principle - in its handling of immigration cases, in federal personnel benefits, in allowing a same-sex marriage at a military base, and in refusing to defend DOMA in the courts - makes a mockery of the President's inaugural oath,” says the proposed platform.

Anybody notice who is listed as taking credit for social conservatives? And they wonder why they are listed as a hate Group. 
Now the big question is when in the hell is the SPLC going to list the GOP as a hate group?
