So, why can’t Iowa solve this problem?

The same way Massachusetts can’t solve their problem—the liberals won’t let them.

A Constitutional amendment would ensure that the liberals in each state currently opposing bans and blocking conservatives from getting the bans back in action, would HAVE to submit to a ban on gay marriage.

An ounce of prevention might actually be worth a pound of cure, you know.

Or you like the idea of giving the US Senate one crack at passing a marriage amendment after a runaway activist judge has declared gay (or whatever type have you) marriage legal.

Because I’ll just tell you, that’s all we’ll get. Once it’s legal, there’s no going back. And the country will pay a heavy price for destroying what has been implied in traditional marriage in every society on earth for as long as man has kept history.

And you ask why Iowa can’t solve this problem. Well, all that takes is a brief look at the way government works. Because one ruling by the US Supreme Court that bans of non-traditional marriages are unconstitutional is all it will take to destroy Iowa’s marriage amendment. Further, marriage is something has is granted federal rights and benefits. It should be protected at the federal level.
