Media's script for reporting on Marriage Amendment

The media will react predictably, I predict, to Congress' consideration of a Federal Marriage Protection Amendment this week. Dennis Prager (at RealClearPolitics.com) has a great article on the subject. Good quote:

This is part of the larger liberal view of Republicans and conservatives: They are not merely wrong; they are either phonies or bad. It is inconceivableto most liberals that a Republican politician can sincerely oppose redefiningthe most important social structure of society. And if that Republican'sopposition to redefining marriage is deemed sincere, it is inconceivable to mostliberals that the person is anything but a bigot.

Also,

As for the liberals' view that gas prices are more important than society's definition of marriage, it is so self-incriminating that no response is needed.
