The same reason he signed off on the Commodity Futures and Modernization Act. He GOOFED!

Amen!

I'm gonna see how long I can stomach doing it....

Perhaps if the Labor of an average man were valued by society to the extent that he could support a family with a stay-at-home wife on a typical salary( like in my parent's and grandparent's generations), children would do better in school.

Me acting like K/C: On this we can now all agree: It's wonderful to see that Kevlar has realized the numerous fallacies in his position of opposition to Marriage Equality, and I hope that we can now move forward to a substantive discussion of how best to implement this advance towards a more perfect adherence to our nation's highest ideals. As Kelvar has noted below, by recognizing the Rights of Gay and Lesbian couples to have their life-long monogamous union with the person they love acknowledged and encouraged by the Civil Govt to the same extent as the unions of heterosexuals, we strengthen both the institution of Marriage and the commitment to Justice of Society in general.

Kevlar/Cambermeister: "Does your marriage licence appllication contain the word 'homosexual' or 'straight' or 'love' or 'quere' or 'want' or 'orientation' or 'homo' GGG-Man?" An interesting digression would be to explore all the reasons why this is *such* an arrogantly stupid and irrelevant question.

The words are pretty simple, K/C, and the concept is very, very well-known. And yes, some Americans are being treated differently.

As you already know, Kevlar/CamberMeister, Equality Before The Law is my reason.

About the only 'common ground' I can find with the good Reverend is my belief that no Church that doesn't want to should be forced to marry two men or two women. That's their own separate religious issue. I'd like for such churches (like my own Roman Catholic faith) to change their minds, but that must come from within them if at all, not from the state.
