Leisa Waggoner and Chris Allman's 7-year-old son doesn't understand why his moms can't be married like the parents of his friends.

"How do you explain that the president doesn't want us to?" asked Waggoner, of Indianapolis.

While Indiana opponents of same-sex marriage hailed President Bush's support of a federal constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage as a victory, the announcement Tuesday left others like Waggoner with one question: Why?

The child's lack of understanding is exactly why we have to fight this obscentity. The gays don't want tolerance. They want to be sanctioned by the state. They want to confuse our kids so much that they don't understand anything.

Frankly, they have shoved me from tolerance to the point where I can't stand them any more.

The concept of 'gay marriage' is an aberration to begin with.

Marriage is a time honored tradition which has covered thousands of years. It's reason's are purposeful and productive and do not include 'gay union'.

The only interest gays have in marriage is to tear down another tradition of morality, thereby reducing it to meaninglessness like every other liberal agenda.

I don't see how we threaten anybody," said Waggoner, 48, who has been in a committed relationship with Allman for 15 years.

Yup. Allowing gay marriage will let you sue all Christian churches that don't allow you to be married. It will let you make laws to prevent them from getting tax exemptions or using public facilities, just like the boyscouts are prevented from using public facilities. It will force public schools to teach homosexuality is morally ok to kids whose religion says differently.

but it won't "harm" anyone...

"Leisa Waggoner and Chris Allman's 7-year-old son"
This is impossible. It is one or the other's son but not both. The story starts skewed and just continues.
