re: gay unions in New Jersy
I will never understand the convulted argument that allowing gays to marry will erode traditional marriage as an institution.
What we are really looking at is state sanctioned bigotry in its ugliest form.
The so-called moral conservatives could not care less what this is doing to these people.
Mean-spirited and loveless is this group....no different than popular kids in school making fun of the geek.
Good for New Jersy. I hope this trend continues

I'd rather vote for BOOBS of Alabama than any of the people currently on the national ballots. They have decided (rightly?) that the electorate is a bunch of fools!
