Prop 8 and Children
Protecting Marriage to Protect Children.
That's the name of an article written by a self-proclaimed liberal democrat that was published in the L.A. Times back in September.
If you haven't checked it out yet, go and do. It's a must-read about why Prop 8 is about children.

If you haven't checked it out yet, go and do. It's a must-read about why Prop 8 is about children.
Marriage (and only marriage) unites the three core dimensions of parenthood – biological, social and legal – into one pro-child form: the married couple. Marriage says to a child: The man and the woman whose sexual union made you will also be there to love and raise you. Marriage says to society as a whole: For every child born, there is a recognized mother and a father, accountable to the child and to each other.
Legal Implications of Prop 8
There's a good post over at the Hedgehog Blog about the legal implications of Prop 8.
They say they'll be posting more in the days to come.
The fact is, if Proposition 8 is not passed and the California Supreme Court's decision is allowed to stand, there will be consequences. This is undeniable. What also seems certain is that we cannot be certain what those consequences will be. The Parker v. Hurley scenario is only one possible consequence.

Yes on 8: It's Already Happened
The "No on Prop 8" ads are saying that it's a lie that Prop 8 would cause same sex marriage to be taught in public schools.
So the Yes on 8 folks have put out an ad saying that not only can it happen, it did. Gay marriage is legal in one state already, and we can see the facts of what happened there.
Here's the National School Board Association's discussion of the case.
