Very interesting case on all levels. Messy, too.

< A couple months later comes the other foot. >QUOTE In the filing, Corbett administration lawyers compared gay and lesbian couples to children, noting that neither may legally marry in Pennsylvania.
"It was an inappropriate analogy, you know," Corbett said. "I think a much better analogy would have been brother and sister, don't you?" Posted by TPRJones on Oct. 04 2013,08:19
No, that is not a better analogy. Not unless one believes that homosexual marriage leads to a much higher incidence of birth defects. Perhaps next you should try some sort of analogy involving issuing marriage licenses to dogs?
