It's just common sense. That the other side has put all it's bets on opposing it is the only thing that makes it an issue. Now that HRC has come out and said LGBT rights are Human rights will the Obama camp put there money where their mouth is and remove the 2nd class citizen tag from LGBT people and allow them to marry?

Or will they leave the Secretary of State to hang out to dry and make all the fine words hollow?
