you are aware that the divorce rate has been steadily declining in this country and is currently at it's lowest level since 1970(albiet for a host of reasons) but you didn't mention any factors regarding the causes for the rate before declaring marriage a sham..
btw, if marriage is indeed a "sham", why would gay couples be so anxious to participate in a "sham"?
U.S. divorce rate declines, reason unclear

NEW YORK -- By the numbers, divorce just isn't what it used to be.
Despite the common notion that America remains plagued by a divorce epidemic, the national per capita divorce rate has declined steadily since its peak in 1981 and is now at its lowest level since 1970. |

No body here can really believe that OBAMA believes in gay marriges...U just do not change your mind over nite.....if he believed, why did he not mention that he was for gay marriges in 2008..2009..2010...2011
It is just a politcal ploy which I think has back fired...even some gays believe it is only a political move.

The sanctity of marriage is a sham, sorry, I forgot everything had to be spelled out for you.
