More proof that a blind squirrel can find an acorn, from time to time.

The U.S. government should abolish its sanctioning of marriage, argued Cass Sunstein, President Obama's regulatory czar.

Sunstein proposed that the concept of marriage should become privatized, with the state only granting civil union contracts to couples wishing to enter into an agreement.

Sunstein explained marriage licensing is unnecessary, pointing out people stay committed to organizations like country clubs and homeowner associations without any government interference.

"Under our proposal, the word marriage would no longer appear in any laws, and marriage licenses would no longer be offered or recognized by any level of government," wrote Sunstein and co-author Richard Thaler in their 2008 book, "Nudge: Improving decisions about health, wealth and happiness."

Before you get all warm and fuzzy, you should read the book and think really hard about what his 'America' would look like.

While I too think that marriage is not for the state to licence, you need to look 'big picture' with Sunstein.

I know that Sunstien is a Stalinist.

Still, if he gets one right, even if it's by accident, I'll take it.

How many nutters are surrounding Barry?

What is up with that?

And does Barry still smoke a loke from time to time?????

I like this. But I don't believe Obama would have the balls to pursue it and I don't think the evangelicals will stand for it.
