The US Senate is about the defeat a proposed constitutional amendment that would force states to define marriage as between one man and one woman. [Incidentally, reports suggest that the esteemed Sens. Kerry and Edwards likely won't cast a vote on this issue]
"If you support ... a mother and a father for every child, you are a hater. If you believe that men and women for 5,000 years have bonded together in marriage, you're a gay-basher. Marriage is hate. Marriage is a stain. Marriage is an evil thing. That's what we hear," said right-wing Sen. Rick Santorum.
I was a bit confused. I thought that gay marriage supporters were saying marriage is a wonderful thing. That they were saying "Marriage is such a great thing, we want gays to be a part of it." Maybe Sen. Santorum was hearing only what he wanted to hear. I wonder if he gave his straw man a name.
But, maybe the gay marriage opponents do have a point. So in honor of this proposed amendment, I will feature pictures of each and every married couple in America who would be harmed by the legalization of gay marriage. See below...
Look deep into their eyes and you'll see how concerned they are about how gay marriage would destroy their unions.
