By George, I think he's got it!

Brian Brown (of NOM [National Organization for Marriage] fame) and Dan Savage (of "It Gets Better" fame) met for an over-dinner debate moderated by NYTimes journalist Matt Oppenheimer last night. Here's a link to a HuffPost report on the debate ... and here's a quote from the evening that's receiving some well deserved attention:



By George, I think he's got it! Let's review:
  • Some rabbis thinking interfaith marriage is wrong doesn't make it illegal.
  • Some priests thinking divorce is wrong doesn't make it illegal.
  • NOM thinking same-sex marriage is wrong -- by Brown's own logic -- shouldn't make it illegal.
Are we done now, NOM?
