Someday, I keep hoping... the soccer mom mentality will lose its iron grip on Republicans and the intellectually honest conservatives (and the selfish liberals) will embrace a more libertarian perspective that is destined to be the party of the future, but is currently only championed -to the best of my observation- by the guvernator in CA.

-The conservatives you speak of are Liberatarians(sp).
-Sarcasm detected aside, look at the statistics (which I will not at this point in time throw out, too lazy on a thirsty thursday, forgive), homosexuals are the largest growing group as far as carrying(sp) the HIV/AIDS virus, and they account for a sizeable percentage of the total carriers in the country.
-To the best of my knowledge this is still a democracy, and so long as people abide by the laws and regulations afforded them, there is no reason to knock them or attack them. I am getting pretty fed up of the thought that gays are constitutional afforded the same rights, read the laws, its there in plain black and white.
I get it that everyone is an arm chair justice, but this activist intent is getting ridiculous. No where in the constitution are gays rights expressly affirmed, nor are they denied, nor is there any implicit language that "makes them discriminated against" because they cannot marry. The right is deffered to the state, because it is upheld and within the spirit of the constitution.
