Wise words, indeed

Here're some wise words for the Vote No On 1 folks:

"Partisans of same sex marriage demand to know how two 'gay' men pledging themselves to one another can possibly hurt a 'straight' couple. Indirectly.

"If marriage is to include gay men and women, by what standard can we exclude non-gay threesomes? Nothing in the [pro-gay marriage crowd's rantings and ravings] have provided a principled ground upon which to forbid adult incest, polygamy or polyandry. Homosexuals bristle at this argument. But they must answer a question: How does a homosexual father convince his daughter that polygamy is out of the question?

"Marriage must, if the word is to retain its meaning, be only between one man and one woman. For as critics on both sides of the debate acknowledge, we're having a hard time upholding the integrity of marriage among the heterosexual population. At this moment, we ought to be reinvesting marriage with the honor it once commanded, not bleeding it of substance."

-- Mona Charen
