I'm not going to embed the video, but you can watch it here. The above is a screen capture from the closing seconds of NOM's new advertisement. So those adamant folks who want to reserve "marraige" (cripe, I can't even spell that) for one man, one woman, can have their way. And my gay friends can finally get acknowledgement that they have a right to marriage. (Hat tip to Sadly, No)I guess my concern is that it may require more enunciation skills than the supporters of marraige are generally able to muster. So here's my contibution: "mair-idj" is a good phonetic approximation of "marriage." This new thing that NOM is proposing should be pronounced "mair-rage." Sort of like "air raid," but with emphasis on "rage."
And speaking of "NOM," here's what I'm hypothesizing.
Followup: No, I don't support "Same Same Sex Marraige." That's the whole point... marraige is supposed to be between a man and a woman only, AND in that order: man first. Whew! It's pretty difficult to keep up with the mental machinations of those darned republicans!
Followup 2: (Friday, May 29) Awww... the video at the link above "has been removed by the user." Wonder why?

It's a good thing that we have important issues like this to discuss to keep us from talking about things like war, torture and the economy. ;o)
