Sarah Palin favors a federal ban on gay marriage...

Sarah Palin is to be applauded for her "Saturday Night Live" appearance over the weekend. Lotsa;laughs. Then she quickly reminds gay folks like me why she is bad news:

During an interview with Christian Broadcasting Network's David Brody, Palin makes her feelings clear: she would support a federal ban on gay marriage. Here is the video followed by the text:

Brody: On Constitutional marriage amendment , are, are you for something like that?

Palin: I am, in my own, state, I have voted along with the vast majority of Alaskans who had the opportunity to vote to amend our Constitution defining marriage as between one man and one woman. I wish on a federal level that that's where we would go because I don't support gay marriage.

I'm not going to be out there judging individuals, sitting in a seat of judgment telling what they can and can't do, should and should not do, but I certainly can express my own opinion here and take actions that I believe would be best for traditional marriage and that's casting my votes and speaking up for traditional marriage that, that instrument that it's the foundation of our society is that strong family and that's based on that traditional definition of marriage, so I do support that.
