"The letter from the two top pols cites a 'clear majority' for two positions - a ballot question banning gay marriage so the people 'have a voice' and an upfront guarantee of..."

Ahem...a clear majority has ALREADY used their "voice" by overwhelmingly VOTING DOWN same sex marriage when it HAS BEEN - many times - a BALLOT QUESTION. Our "VOICES" our WILL, is being SUMMARILY OVERRULED by MINI-DICTATORS WRITING LAW FROM THE BENCH.

Marriage is not a right. It is more like a privilige, and it's between a man and woman AS IT HAS BEEN THROUGHOUT HUMAN HISTORY. Gays can already set up insurance and inheritance for their partners.

I can't believe the TWITS at the NAACP are now SO FAR GONE they can't understand that marriage, following it's historical definition as being between a man and woman has nothing WHATEVER to do with RACE, religion, civil libetrties OR human rights. It has EVERYTHING to to with MEN AND WOMEN, PERIOD! Marriage defined as being between a man and woman is HARDWIRED INTO US. It's part of our GENETIC MAKEUP.

Ahem, the majority is incapable of being fair. The majority would have seen the Civil Rights movement completely trampled.

Ahem, marriage has not always been defined as it is here, today. Look through your history book, you'll see that this argument is also unfounded.

Ahem, it's a part of YOUR genetic makeup. Not everyone's.
