Well, the problem is that I don't accept Cimarron's premise. I think it's demonstrably a left/right issue. It's on the record in politics around the world.
Did you know that in some countries, same-sex marriage is constitutionally banned? Do you think liberals did that?
I think the only way we can get around the left/right issue is by focusing on the Constitution/Bill or Rights. I sincerely hope a SCOTUS ruling will set a precedent (or three) and soon. It's happened elsewhere.
The right isn't likely to vote for gay rights.
