Argh, why are we talking about this again?!? Calm, breathe, calm.

Okay, I understand the President's definition of things is quite different from my own. And I understand that there are a lot of people out there who feel similarly (and that "fact" depends tremendously on what sample of the population you're looking at, not to mention that the feeling is one based in hatred and fear). What I don't get is why so-called gay marriage is such a threat to any of these people. In what way would "changing the definition of marriage...undermine the family structure"? That I do not get.

Seriously, intolerance makes me sick. Believe what you want (truly!), but why oh why do you have to be hateful towards others who hold different beliefs? I can't help but get worked up over it. See, I'm intolerant of intolerance. So perfect.

There are lots of open letters for and against the gay marriage Constitutional ban (oh how I shudder--do we really have that much disrespect for the Constitution of this land?). I've already written to my Senators about that; I took a slightly different approach with a June 5 letter to G.W. I don't expect much, but I said my piece (or is it peace?). Anyway, it's all about being tallied, for that's the next best thing to being heard. ;)

August UPDATE: Is this considered judicial activism? If so I am all for it. How sad when people who plan for the happy upbringing of children are prevented but the biologically capable procreate and abandon or abuse without any legal battle so long as it's not overt.
