Yes, yes, GfS, I've heard it all before. How does that fit with getting the government out of our private lives? It sounds like you want the government out of our lives until something comes along that you don't like and then you want legislation that suits your likes and dislikes. The reason the government is in our private lives is because people like you keep yelling for it to be there. Add up enough people's likes and dislikes and add legislation to all of them, and you end up with a repressive society.

By the way, the Constitution doesn't say anything about who can marry who. Are you a strict constructionist or not? What, exactly, does the "Land of the Free" mean to you?

Lastly, I want the government to stop telling us who we can marry because it's wrong, not because it's part of some political agenda. If you want to talk to a political agenda, go find a website where a political agenda visits, and argue with it. If you want to be here, you'll have to settle for talking with individuals, and actually responding to what they say instead of allowing yourself to ignore them because you think they have been brain-washed by a political agenda.

So, care to respond to I actually said? Using ideas that don't involve reading into the Constitution something that isn't there?
