Judge Richard Posner Rips Away The Tradition Of Marriage Argument

Posner destroys Samuelsons traditions arguments against gay marriage, he blast through the bullshit defense of the state arguing against same sex unions and demands evidence of the harm same sex marriages would cause the state, which Samuelson could not give or list.
Posner does however state their intended reason:
"It's based on hate, isn't it?"
Here's the almost hour long examination, but it's the first half of the hearing where Judge Posner takes Samuelson to task, the exchange is well worth a listen:
