To all the couples who got married in California today, regardless of the plumbing connections, my most heartfelt congratulations and felicitatios. May you have many, many years of joy and fulfillment.
And to Mathew D. Staver of the Florida-based “Liberty Counsel” who claims that the various ceremonies “make a mockery of marriage” — I do not cede to anyone a greater spiritual and emotional devotion than I have in my own marriage, and, oddly enough, I don’t feel mocked.
