Opening Arguments

Culture warriors

OK, now we know. Both Baron Hill and Mike Sodrel stand foursquare in favor of the sanctity of marriage:

Those who know me personally know that I am a family man with deep religious convictions. Much has been said by my opponent, Mike Sodrel, about my beliefs concerning gay marriage, and I want to set the record straight.

Simply put, I believe that marriage is sacred and is a right only between a man and a woman. In the Indiana legislature, I sponsored the law to define marriage as existing between one man and one woman, and I would support a federal law to do the same.

For a lot of reasons, the issue of gay marriage is headed for the Supreme Court and, like it or not, that's where the issue is going to be decided. Maybe we could put the culture war on hold for a while and ask our legislative candidates to discuss more immediate concerns.
