I travel a lot for work, and heard this on a Public Radio Station, and am glad to have the opportunity to hear this again & offer my review.
Why has no one delved into the historical aspect of marriage...bush keeps talking about the sanctity of marriage, claiming some religious origin of marriage. Marriage is a civil union, and can also be religious one. Looking at the root of bush's religious marriage, the man owned his wife, or wives, as chattel, the same way he owned his slaves. Marriage is older than religion, and the state has no place mandating a constitutional ammendment that is so utterly & completely contradictory to the constitution.
