Interesting to see how so many folks, right and left, gay and straight, pro and con, are buying into this ridiculous debate. My personal view of gay marriage is pretty much a "don't care," but I'm not going to take up cudgels for or against it. Given the wealth of critical issues that are facing the nation and the world, for this item to be as high as it is on this list, (given the wealth of critical issues thereon), with the most comments, shows clearly the ignorance and shallowness of the voting public.
