My mother's a justice of the peace and believes that anyone who's of legal age should get married to who they want to.
I would agree with your mother so long as they actually want to get married.

Hey, current Republican leadership is all about minimizing the role of government: making it small enough to fit in the bedroom rather than the boardroom.

There's one thing I find odd about these "religious right;" that being how people who sell out in favor of the rich claim to line up behind one of the greatest advocates of the poor and critics of the rich in recorded history.

Everyone noticed it, but much like issues we have on this very forum. Many people find it easier to just allow the trouble then have to deal with the trouble. Politics are just how people interact on large scales, like people, they lose any pretense of dignity as soon as the first person opens their mouth.
