Initiative 957

Quote of the Day:
For many years, social conservatives have claimed that marriage exists solely for the purpose of procreation ... The time has come for these conservatives to be dosed with their own medicine. If same-sex couples should be barred from marriage because they can not have children together, it follows that all couples who cannot or will not have children together should equally be barred from marriage.
-Gregory Gadow, of the Washington Defense of Marriage Alliance, commenting on a proposed ballot initiative that would require straight couples in the state of Washington to have kids in three years or face anulment.
