Sanctity of marriage my ass.

Yeah it is pretty crappy for all those red staters not to respect the sanctity of Michael Schiavo's marriage when the disrepecting is going on when he is living with (effectively) his new wife and children. Not saying it makes him a bad person. But if someone doesn't respect the "sanctity" of this marriage, you shouldn't get all hot and bothered about it.
ETA: yeah the bloggers and all shouldn't have trashed his motives without looking more into it and some have apologized. But knock it off with this other stuff.
