We need a Federal Marriage Amendment to the Constitution to end this judicial tyranny. It's a shame the GOP couldn't muster the cojones to get done when the supposedly pro-family GOP was in charge of Congress and the Executive.

It would have made for a great issue for a national election. Too many Mark Foleys, Larry Craigs, and Dick Cheney's in the GOP to do the right thing politically, I guess.

You forgot Lindsey Graham.

What did Dick Cheney do? I missed that one. And why didn't you put apostrophes into "Foleys" and "Craigs?"

They tried it twice already, didn’t go anywhere. It’s main back the second time, David Vitter, obviously takes the “sanctity of marriage” very seriously, cheating on his wife with a hooker. It may have been a useful issue in 2004, but it didn’t work in 2006, and sure as hell won’t work this year. The GOP seems to have learned absoultely nothing from 2006 and the special elections, trying the same old tricks that don’t work. I think it will be very funny if there’s a ballot initiative and it fails, like in Arizona.

You are just talking about the U.S. Congress. You would also need all those State Legislatures to pass it. Not easy.

I agree. States should not be permitted to redefine marriage. We could have 50 different definitions of marriage - one per state. Unfortunately, I can’t see them passing one anytime soon.
