The Culture wars have been going on in this country for at least since it was founded and arguably since the first settlers came. Who's been winning? I wonder.
Seen any slaves, lately? Do women have the vote? Are labor unions legal? Contraception? Abortion? Divorce? Is evolution of the species taught in public school? Is it legal to have a sexual relationship outside of wedlock? Can you set up housekeeping with that person? Does that person even have to be of the opposite sex? Is there a military draft? How many more examples can you name. How many that you, yourself, exemplify? What are some of the victories of the Right? There must be some. They escape me at the moment.
The Right Wing, Christo-fundies are crowing about the impending victory they believe they will win in California, to keep marriage between a man and a woman. Think about that. Is that what they are reduced to, in their fight to hold the line on traditional culture? Pretty sad.
Even if they win on traditional marriage. How long do you think they can hold the line there? 3 years? 5 years? More than that? You're dreamin'.

You are allowed to fail in America unless you are a big New York bank or insurance company.
