The Obama/Proposition 8 situation appeals to those opposed to same-sex marriage, who are banking on a high turnout by blacks and conservative Latinos. "There's no question African-American and Latino voters are among our strongest supporters," said Frank Schubert, the co-campaign manager for Yes on 8, the leading group behind the measure. "And to the extent that they are motivated to get to the polls, whether by this issue or by Barack Obama, it helps us."

First I am not religious and do not believe in the dogma. I do think all people should have the right to live in any types of relationships they like. Legally the laws are designed to promote families. I do not think the government should be in that business. But now that it is they should not discriminate at what a family is. I could concede the word marriage to the church. But all legal documents should then use a different word maybe social certificate that would apply to all unions between people no matter gender. Marriage would only be a church thing and would not apply legally. But Churches could ban same sex couples.

My self the divorce papers are not signed yet but I live with another MTF and sleep in the same bed. Confusing? yes.
