The battle for marriage is the battle of the century. The values, customs, conventions, and norms of the Judeo-Christian traditions that inform and guide a free society are nestled in the institution of marriage and family. Once this wall falls, all others will follow.
Coalition of LGBT groups: Next year too soon for gay marriage vote in CA
The hottest debate among California gay marriage supporters revolves around a simple question: Do you try to overturn Proposition 8 in 2010 or 2012? This week it got hotter, as the community started to choose sides.A diverse union of LGBT coalitions of color -- including API Equality-LA, HONOR PAC, and the Jordan/ Rustin Coalition -- said let's wait until 2012 before shoving another ballot initiative in front of folks. Their motto: Prepare to Prevail.
Say the P2Pers: Going "back to the ballot to remove the voter-imposed ban on same-sex marriage from the state constitution in 2010 would be rushed and risky. We should proceed with a costly, demanding, and high-stakes electoral campaign of this sort only when we are confident we can win."
