Brian Brown is the executive director of the National Organization for Marriage (full disclosure: I’m the president). In the bulletin he just sent out about the Iowa decision, Brian pointed to Footnote 26 for the meaning of this decision:

The most heartbreaking sentence however is Footnote 26.  

In Footnote 26 these justices conclude: “The traditional notion that children need a mother and a father to be raised into healthy, well-adjusted adults is based more on stereotype than anything else.”

Justices? Injustices. I hate being right about something so sad: but gay marriage really is about rejecting the natural family, the importance of bringing together the two creators of the child, the mom and the dad, to raise their baby in love together. The Iowa court ruling once again makes that connection crystal clear.

Yes. Exactly. Crystal clear.
