Drop it, being gay is not deviant, but believing in a make believe person is. It is not special rights unless the straights continue to get them only, then the straights are getting special rights.
If two women could marry, but two men could not, then they'd have a case for unequal treatment.
I think my 6 year old could come up with a better argument
Let me repeat myself for the millionth time for the homophobic knuckle draggers... in states where same sex marriage is legal, heterosexuals have the same right to marry someone of the same sex as do gay people. See? STILL THE SAME RIGHTS!
The right to equal protection of the laws as guaranteed by the 14th amendment. States are still denying the legal protections of marriage to same sex couples.
No one has a right to marriage. You have the right to live your life as you please as long as you are not violating others rights.
The problem is we the people allowing government to decide, through mob rule, who can and cannot get legally married.

Who says it's two men v two women. How about two adults?
No one should ever stand in the way of two people in love who want to get married. And in the same vein no one should force another to accept that marriage.
I wouldn't be so sure some of the political affairs did not involve corruption. I have no doubt many a state job or government contract has found a benefactor in such situations. And the ultimate hypocrisy would be closeted married lawmakers having same sex affairs that resulted in their side piece getting employment or $ from the state. Although straight pro-life legislators who have affairs and either have and abortion or encourage the mistress to have an abortion can equal that.
Lets not pretend that scenario has never played out.
Has anyone made a 'Diaper Dave' Vitter joke yet? I so love a good "Diaper Dave' Vitter joke.
