Marriage and religion rant

Yay California. It's a simple equation, really:

Does government have a right to step in and tell two consenting adults that they are not allowed to be married?

Nope.

Furthermore, government should be ENCOURAGING marriage and the establishment of families, doing what it can to preserve and protect marriage and family, for the economy, for the stability of society, and for the good of all of our children. Why so many people with "family values" are against marriage and family based on a trivial thing as what their torso and groin area look like is beyond me. Remember, these are the SAME folks who were against mixed-race marriages not so long ago, and look how truly stupid they were.

Yep. It's 2008, people. And a mixed race man is going to be president of the country in eight months. It's time for the adults to run the country again. I can't wait to see Obama and Webb knock the tar out of McCain/Huckabee. :)
