CA supreme court ruling on Prop 8 sucks. Someone please tell me how same gender marriage affects opposite gender marriage? Look at the divorce rate for heaven's sake, it's not like straight people are messing up "traditional" marriage all on their own.

Health care - when did money become more important than the health of a child? Recently we had a friend whose young daughter was diagnosed with bone cancer. Like any responsible parent, our friend wanted a second opinion. When she tried to get the results of an MRI to take to a different doctor, the facility refused to release the results until she paid the full balance of the bill, nearly $700. She didn't have the money so we wired it to her. How can someone in good conscience act in this matter?
