Same-sex
marriage has been in the news a lot lately. North Carolina voted to ban it,
along with civil partnerships, and a day later Obama held an interview where he
voiced his personal support for same-sex marriage. Although I am frustrated
at the limits of the support Obama gave, I also understand that it is a pretty
big symbolic victory, particularly considering the fact that we’re right in the
middle of election season. I also understand those people who are heaping
praise on Obama and are unwilling to criticize his statement as perhaps not
going far enough. I get it.
