I was listening to Dennis Prager online a couple of weeks back, and he echoed Weyrich. He had actually addressed an audience of conservative pols on the importance of maintaining marriage as we know it, and they said they couldn't step out public and back any proposed Amendment without previous assurance that they wouldn't be standing alone.
He said that as much as he doesn't like the idea of amending the Constitution, an amendment is the last stand of the traditional family. Activist judges will not stop until they have created the right to same-sex marriage out of whole cloth.
Love in any form is in short comodity these days ,so if two people ,regardless of what sex they are fall in love,I believe they have the right to be married and have the government acknowledge it as a true marrige
