Fantastic LTTE- Las Vegas RJ 6/27

Glass house

To the editor:

My apology to Sen. John Ensign. I now see how my seven-year, same-sex relationship with my partner, my Iraq war veteran friend and his 12-year, same-sex relationship and my close friend's 30-year, same-sex committed relationship had become a threat that eroded his marriage.

I now understand his fear that same-sex marriage will cause the end to traditional marriage as we know it.

Mr. Ensign has brought to light how our committed same-sex relationships have influenced him to commit adultery, go against his reborn Christian beliefs and forced him into a life of hypocrisy. I appreciate how he has saved me from the same perils by opposing the sanctity of my union to my same-sex partner and why he had called for the resignation of President Clinton and Sen. Larry Craig for their infidelities.

I see now how our relationships are spreading the decay upon the sanctity of marriage. It would appear that we have already poisoned another sound marriage by forcing South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford into his infidelities.

One question for Sen. Ensign: If I wanted to help pay for the damage I have caused you from you breaking all of the windows in the glass house that you live in, where do I send a check?
