Yahoo! News - Bush Criticizes Gay Marriage Ruling


This strikes me as odd. I am still wondering why straight people are so offended or scared by gay marriage? Are they really so sure that the legality of it will encourage otherwise straight people to go gay? Or that recognizing homosexual fidelity will be a danger to children?

Would they just prefer that gays live together? I guess the truth is that conservatives especially just want gays to go away. Or become straight.

Why not just focus on encouraging people who treat others with kindness and compassion? Why not take the focus off the sexuality and focus on basic human kindness issues. Good neighbors, concern for community, concern for the world. Oh, that's right. We live in George Bush's world where clean air is for sale and moral self-righteousness is in vogue.
