When “conservatives” are as bothered by divorces as they are by gay marriages, I’ll know they are serious about defending the family and the institution of marriage.
Until then they talk a good game but it’s all talk. With or without gay marriage, marriage as an institution is on its last legs in western society. Yes the supposed defenders of marriage and family are wasting their time on a side issue.
It’s a classic case of looking at the speck of sawdust in a brother’s eye and paying no attention to the plank in one’s own.

I’m bothered about contraception. :) When conservatives are bothered about the bond between husband and wife, then we can start on divorces. By all means, but this is the battle in the hear and now. We need to go back to what works.
Good for you. I agree with you, and - I agree with Ted Olson.
