The Institute for American Values is a breath of fresh air in a subject area so heavily dominated by proponents of right-wing religious agendas. It's not that I don't think that traditional marriage and American values are bad but it seems that these good ideas get hijacked by people who have no compunctions about playing fast and loose with the facts. As a result the credibility of traditional values has suffered. The Institute counters this trend with solid sources and good logic. I'm going to be watching them.
