Burka gets gay marriage wrong

Paul Burka, the lead blogger and political columnist for Texas Monthly, has a blog post on the California Supreme Court’s legalization of gay marriage that is proof positive he’s really a neo-centrist squish. Or maybe it’s an age thing. He is 65, after all, and all the polls show that the younger you are, the more sympathetic you’re likely to be to gay marriage.

Basically, he trots out a variant of “separate but equal” arguments to defend denying gays the right to marry.
