If you believe in the constitution of the United States, and in separation of church and state, then neither the states or the federal government can ban gay marriage. Religious institutions can refuse to marry gays...no one is disputing that...but the government can't and shouldn't stop gays from entering a legal marriage. This may cost Obama votes in the long run, but remember, even Dick Cheney has a gay daughter...so don't assume all right wingers hold an anti gay marriage stance. Of all the things I worry about...terrorism, unemployment, job creation, education, etc...gay marriage is not one of them.
I had Mr. Reel in 7th grade history many, many years ago! He was a great teacher and inspired many of us to become educators. Godspeed Mr. Reel...I hope you are on the mend soon!!!!
Of all the things I worry about in our country and abroad, gay marriage is personally the least of my concerns. Murder and rape are against the law. In a civilized society, who am I to judge who is allowed to love/commit themselves to another person? In 50 years, this will be a non-issue, just like interracial marriages are today.
Linkon was often vilified in the Vindicator, but is having the last laugh. Wow!! What a prestigious promotion. Good luck Sherry...YSU's loss (and it's a big one) is Georgetown's gain. I hope you will be appreciated there.
