Topic: Gay marriage
Quote: Most state constitutions that I have looked at expressly protect the right of the ballot initiative. We are, of course, limiting ourselves to state laws since the federal government has absolutely nothing to do with marriage.
Response: That's not quite true either. Federal laws grant many rights and privledges to married people. The feds may not have a say on who can get married, but there are federal laws that benefit married people.\n
