Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker\u2019s sons disappointed in dad\u2019s dissing of gay<\/a> marriage ruling<\/b><\/p>\n

The two sons of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker were not happy to see their father take the US Supreme Court to task for making same-sex<\/a> marriage legal in all 50 states.<\/p>\n

After the 26 June ruling, Republican presidential hopeful Walker stated<\/a>: ‘I believe this Supreme Court decision is a grave mistake,’ blamed ‘five unelected judges’ and called for an amendment to the US Constitution giving states the ability to decide if same-sex<\/a> couples<\/a> can marry.<\/p>\n

‘We will need a conservative president who will appoint men<\/a> and women<\/a> to the Court who will faithfully interpret the Constitution and laws of our land without injecting their own political agendas,’ Walker also stated.<\/p>\n

Matt Walker and Alex Walker immediately voiced their displeasure to their mother.<\/p>\n

‘That was a hard one,’ Tonette Walker tells the Washington Post<\/a>. ‘Our sons were disappointed. . . . I was torn. I have children who are very passionate [in favor of same-sex marriage], and Scott was on his side very passionate.’<\/p>\n

She adds: ‘It’s hard for me because I have a cousin who I love dearly – she is like a sister to me – who is married to a woman<\/a>, her partner of 18 years.’<\/p>\n

Alex Walker had even been the best man<\/a> at the wedding of the cousin, Shelli Marquardt, and her wife Cathy Priem.<\/p>\n

At his first public appearance after the ‘grave mistake’ statement, the governor toned down his comments on gay<\/a> marriage and said: ‘We should respect the opinions of others in America. But that in return means that they not only respect our opinions, they respect what is written in the Constitution.’<\/p>\n

The sons are still planning to take some time off from college to work on their dad’s presidential campaign – he will formally announce on 13 July – despite their disagreement on the hot button marriage issue.<\/p>\n
