Subject: RE: BS: Californians Oppose 'Prop 8' Gay Marriage Ban
Don, I know, as was pointed out, that my question to you, has been 'sitting there a while..' ..however, so was yours to mine, so in all fairness, I can understand that delays happen. I can't help everybody jumping in and wanting to answer for you, to bolster a political stance, as if the question was asked to them. To all those, please respect, that because this is a sensitive issue, that in order for an honest exchange, I think it incumbent, on us all, to treat this with the respect, that it should, and that is, the the assertion that it is meant both honest and sincere. That being said, it may be a question many of you may consider, even though, in all due respect to Don, and myself, (and all those waiting to see whatever comes of this), to please not try to stick words in Don's mouth, as to interject, your personal political stance. At times like this, when the love bond that holds a family together, and the care and energy one puts into his or her family, sometimes politics can just as well be damned!

So give him time, to answer as HE sees fit, the way he feels without a lot of political proxy answers. This is NOT about 'winning' or 'losing' an argument. This is more like a father considering what he thinks is the best for his family.
Thank you,
