I'm not sure what the ultimate ramifications will be, and there are bound to be measures in place before tomorrow to undo what was done, but San Francisco - in defiance of both a California law passed in 2000 as well as Mr. Bush's stated desire to go after a gay marriage ban - began to marry the first of some approximately 100 couples today.
But to these couples - especially the pair who had been together for 51 years - I say, "Many happy and committed years together." If marriage is such a blessing and a joy, we should actually encourage more people to do it when appropriate, rather than say heterosexuals can, homosexuals cannot.
