Speaking of which, your quote of the day:
"It does not affect your daily life very much if your neighbor marries a box turtle. But that does not mean it is right...Now you must raise your children up in a world where that union of man and box turtle is on the same legal footing as man and wife.” (Senator John Cornyn (R-TX), July 2004)
