May I ask of both of you, do you not realize that the topic of "gay marriage" is yet another bogus attempt to divert attention from some other more pressing topics? Is this something that demands the best creative mental energies of those that really care? Or can you both, see the "side-track" for what it really is?
Danzig said it well.
There are some areas that the government holds no right to, including but not limited to, what occurs between consenting adults.
Equality is inclusive of ALL! It's just that simple.
Everything else is a "smoke screen", and should be seen as such.

DTS,
I agree 100%, unfortunately there are more than enough folks in this country who would rather use valuable resources to deny others equality than force the political opportunists to deal with "real" issues! We can blame Bush et al but in the end, this non-issue would wither and die if the public wasn't willing to nourish it!
