Ted Olson, former Solicitor General in the George W. Bush administration and half of the legal team bringing the lawsuit challenging Prop. 8 has written a strong article for Newsweek laying out the conservative case for marriage. An excerpt:
Americans who believe in the words of the Declaration of Independence, in Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, in the 14th Amendment, and in the Constitution's guarantees of equal protection and equal dignity before the law cannot sit by while this wrong continues. This is not a conservative or liberal issue; it is an American one, and it is time that we, as Americans, embraced it.
Read the whole thing. It's worth your time.
