This Week's Poll
President Obama has endorsed marriage between homosexuals. What do you think?

Please select one:
Marriage should be between a man and a woman, period. Homosexual unions are perversions and should not be tolerated or given legal standing.
I’m not especially comfortable with homosexual marriage, but I don’t see it as that big a deal.
No opinion.
People who love each other should be entitled to share their lives. Homosexuality is a part of nature and our laws should recognize that.
