Urges GOP to 'balance between principle and grace and respect'
(WASHINGTON TIMES) Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, issued some words of advice for fellow GOPers: Get in the 21st century with same-sex-marriage issues.
"We do have a platform, and we adhere to that platform," Mr. Priebus said in a USA Today video. "But it doesn't mean that we divide and subtract people from our party" who favor gay marriage .
"I don't believe we need to act like Old Testament heretics," he said in the USA Today video . Rather, Republicans "have to strike a balance between principle and grace and respect."
