Congressman Eric Cantor, the House Majority Leader, told the Values Voters Summittoday that only “traditional marriage” allows for the “pursuit of happiness.”

“This election is going to determine whether or not the very moral fabric of our country will be upheld or whether it will be torn apart,” Cantor told the audience at the Values Voters Summit, which is sponsored by two anti-gay hate groups, the Family Research Council and the American Family Association.

“Now, in talking about moral fabric, in talking about who we are as a people, I can’t do it any better than my fellow Virginian Thomas Jefferson.  Thomas Jefferson wrote that all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
