Desiring special rights is a totally different thing.

There's something special about wanting to marry the legally consenting adult of my choice?

I guess one of the gay couples from a state where gay marriage is legal should try to volunteer in the military and take it to the Supreme Court and let them decide. They establish more law than Congress!
Ah. So you are unfamiliar with the way our system works in this democratic republic? See. We have a supreme court to make sure that congress doesn't pass laws that are unconstitutional at their base.

Perhaps that will help you.

How small minded and restrictive.

What happened to the pursuit of happiness?

I thought you were all in favour of rejecting tradition and evolving??
