Thank you for raising such a great kid.

DOMA must go.  Gays should have basic human rights, including the right to marry and adopt children (or have them via artificial insemination or a surrogate mother). There is no logical reason to deny you--the only effects shown by studies of gay parents and their kids are positive ones:the kids end up less bound by traditional notions of gender and are more tolerant. Of course, to the DOMA supporters, that's a mortal sin.
