Democracy and marriage (again)

I've seen the light. Marriage is so holy and fundamental that it must be entrusted to the will of the majority. Of course, being a consistent True Conservative, I mean not just gay marriage, but all marriage. Since it is so important for the howling mob to govern our most intimate relationships, no marriage should be valid unless the public has had nine months in which to file comments. That is a fine way to protect democracy, and you don't ... hate ... democracy ... do you?
