I support us accomplishing our mission in Iraq. Whether it is possible, I'm not sure. All I know is that pulling out now would simply engender even more hatred towards the US, and provide an unregulated breeding ground for terrorism. So yes, I support our mission out of concern for future foreign relations and national security.
I'm conflicted about abortion, to a degree. I'm fundamentally opposed to abortion, but I'm not totally sure what I would do if I was the deciding vote. I prefer the "hearts and minds first" method, but I suspect I would vote to ban abortion procedures where the life of the mother was not at stake. I don't have an opinion on rape/incest exceptions, I wouldn't be fundamentally opposed to them.
I'm against gay marriage. I believe two men or two women don't fulfill the requirement for marriage. I'm not against civil unions, but I'm certainly not an advocate for them. I have no problem with gay couples receiving benefits that often accompany traditional marriage. I'm not a single issue voter, but if I were, this certainly wouldn't be it.
