My take:

The DJIA (stock market) is down about 200 points today. That speaks directly to folks' 401ks. There is concern for the housing bubble. People are somewhat annoyed with illegal immigration. And gas prices are kinda high.

With all this stuff going on, it makes conservatives look a bit foolish worrying about a couple of guys tying the knot.

Look, I could be wrong on this, but I don't think I am.

You are wrong if you imply the other issues are not being considered and addressed concurrently -have been, and continue to be JUST as this issue...

It would be disingenuous to imply the other issues are more or less important simply on the basis of which one is in the news today.

It would also be disingenous to imply solutions you disagree with suggest nothing is happening or too much is happening...

An old maxim comes to mind: Lead, Follow, or get out of the way...

You are. Social liberalism and economic liberalism go hand in hand.
