It's the Commitment, Stupid - How to sell gay marriage. By William Saletan

] Homosexuality can be separated from marriage in roughly
] the same way. Marriage is a broadly shared American
] value. You don't have to support homosexuality to support
] marriage. A politician can say, "I'm pro-marriage. The
] issue isn't whether you're straight or gay. The issue is
] whether you support marriage."

This is a fantastic article for anyone interested in the political ramifications of the Mass. ruling concerning gay marriage. A clear way for liberals to win the argument. William Saletan is a savvy dude.

And for the stand-up comics and satirists, I'd take this approach:

So you think same-gender sexual activities are wrong and evil and should not happen, correct? Wellllll, what stops happening when people get married?!

Seriously though, I think the cited approach is a good one, and I hope to see it used by a contender.

marriage is unconstitutional and should be abolished.
