It is sad that the Republican leadership is not as interested as they say they are in protecting the institution of marriage as they are in waging a campaign to divide and distract the American people from the real issues that need to be addressed. Kendrick Meek
When producers want to know what the public wants, they graph it as curves. When they want to tell the public what to get, they say it in curves. Marshall McLuhan
