WEDDING-BELL BLUES: Debra J. Saunders

...In 2000, I was among the minority of Californians who voted in favor of same-sex marriage. I believe in love and marriage. As far as I am concerned, if gay and lesbian couples want to wed, more power to them.

That's all the more reason why, as a supporter of same-sex marriage, I'd like to see it legitimized the right way. I'd rather see gay advocates win by pushing a bill through the Legislature, or by persuading Californians to vote their way in a new ballot initiative, than to win in the courts. The reason: They will have more popular support if they win by wooing the people.

If the price is calling the unions something other than marriage, so be it.
