Maureen Dowd nailed it in her Feb 26th NY Times Column:

Op-Ed Columnist: Stations of the Crass: "But under pressure from the Christian right, he grabbed the chalice with both hands and swigged � seeking to set a precedent in codifying discrimination in the Constitution, a document that in the past has been amended to correct discrimination by giving fuller citizenship rights to blacks, women and young people.
If the president is truly concerned about preserving the sanctity of marriage, as one of my readers suggested, why not make divorce illegal and stone adulterers?"



Bob Herbert nails it in his Feb 27th NY Times column:

Op-Ed Columnist: Bliss and Bigotry: "The opponents of gay marriage are on the wrong side of history. The interests of civilization are not served by driving mature love underground. And the interests of the United States, which is supposed to be the quintessence of a free society, are not served by enshrining bigotry in law."

Rosie Speaks! Do not infringe upon the rights of a person who's in love.

Yahoo! News - Rosie O'Donnell to Marry Girlfriend: "'I think the actions of the president are, in my opinion, the most vile and hateful words ever spoken by a sitting president,' O'Donnell said on the program. 'I am stunned and I'm horrified.
'I find this proposed amendment very, very, very, very shocking. And immoral. And, you know, if civil disobedience is the way to go about change, then I think a lot of people will be going to San Francisco. And I hope they put more people on the steps to marry as many people as show up. And I hope everyone shows up.' "
