Okay.
- Don't we have more problems to deal with than the supposed threat to marriage that same sex unions pose? You know, things like, oh, I don't know, a war with no exit strategy????
- Why muck with the constitution to use it deny rights, when traditionally it's more likely to use an amendment to expand them?
- Heterosexuals have pretty much brought marriage to its supposed endangered status
- I would argue that marriage is not endangered, just that it has evolved to meet society's needs. It other cultures, marriage has varied in terms of whether divorce is allowed (an ancient institution, not a recent development), its oeconomic benefits have often been more important than love, etc., etc.
- People aren't avoiding that leap of hope that marriage is forever and that marriage is for love. It's just not the most realistic of ideas, but still a worthy one.
- I'm really tired of Republicans, who have pretty much mucked up everything since they got control of the White House and Congress, using gays to try to fire up their constituents to ignore their failings.
