Monday morning special

I deliberately held this back a day so I could post it today.

According to the most recent Newsweek poll,

a majority (51%) of adults approve of some form of legal recognition for gay and lesbian couples; 28 percent say they favor full marriage rights, while 23 percent favor civil unions or partnerships but not gay marriage.

An interesting finding was that total support for marriage and civil unions was directly related to age: the younger the age group, the greater the support; among those under 30, it was nearly 2/3. Even so, only among those 65 and older did such support drop below 50%.

The time is coming. Later than we may have wished but sooner than we may have expected.
