Except for the token pandering to the gay/lesbo crowd, that is one of the greatest arguments I've heard yet for Constitutional definition of marriage.

** However imperfectly practiced by the American people, marriage still is a perfect ideal.**
Please contact your Senator to support the traditional ideal of marriage between an man and a woman.

divorce v. marriage will always be an issue.
This is about strengthening traditional marriage between and man and a woman.

This is about strengthening traditional marriage between and man and a woman. If you want to strengthen marriage, outlaw divorce.
The proposed amemdment involves the denial of rights to human beings.
