I spent some time listening to Mr. Limbaugh lecture on the Gay Marriage  
issue yesterday, and so am familiar with the arguments against it.  
There's only one problem with them, and that's the constitution.  
There's no way that excluding a class of people from getting married  
will stand as equal protection. You can rationalize it all you want,  
but marriage as an institution for heterosexual couples can only go the  
way of separate but equal.

I believe this is the reason for the movement to introduce an amendment  
to the constitution regarding marriage. It would bring political  
returns for those introducing it, and could potentially postpone having  
the court taking any court challenges on the subject.
