So, there is nothing in our country, or the world, more important for the President to deal with than the Gay marriage issue? Spiraling deficits, corruption, energy policy, Iraq, Iran, Inflation or many other things all take a back burner to this all important issue?
SOMEBODY AROUND HERE NEEDS TO GET THEIR PRIORITIES IN ORDER AND IT SURE ISN'T ME.
I guess I will never understand politicians and the motivations that drive them. This is probably a good thing too, if I thought like them, I would be like them and that is one scary thought.
There's no sense talking about priorities. Priorities reveal themselves. We're all transparent against the face of the clock. Eric Zorn

"Unity08 on the Issues
Unity08 divides issues facing the country into two categories: Crucial Issues – on which America’s future safety and welfare depend; and Important Issues – which, while vital to some, will not, in our judgment, determine the fate or future of the United States.
In our opinion, Crucial Issues include: Global terrorism, our national debt, our dependence on foreign oil, the emergence of India and China as strategic competitors and/or allies, nuclear proliferation, global climate change, the corruption of Washington’s lobbying system, the education of our young, the health care of all, and the disappearance of the American Dream for so many of our people.
By contrast, we consider gun control, abortion and gay marriage important issues, worthy of debate and discussion in a free society, but not issues that should dominate or even crowd our national agenda.
In our opinion – since the disintegration of the Soviet Union – our political system seems to have focused more attention on the “important issues” than the “crucial issues.” One result: The political parties have been built to address the interests of their “base” but have failed to address the realities that impact most Americans.
