Oh those Brits

Just watched a spot of political speech from our former masters across the pond. In front of an assembly of loyal party members, David Cameron, who I understand is the leader of the Conservative Party, got to talking about marriage. Predictably, he's for it. Thing is, he went into more detail, and it seems he feels the value of marriage stems not from religion or tradition, but a public decree of commitment and selflessness. Then he got around to really blowing my mind - he elaborated that the inherent value in marriage is present whether the union is between a man and a woman, a woman and a woman, or a man and a man, and that he's proud that the party supported civil unions.

Um, where can we get conservatives like this?
