Liberty Counsel files suit for declaratory and injunctive relief against the same-sex marriage law. The NY Post Editorial points out California's new law to teach students beginning in kindergarten the role and contributions of the LGBT community.

Washington, DC is still at odds over the debt ceiling. The Heritage Foundation calls Obama's strategy dangerous. The Washington Post's Jennifer Rubin, thinks the President may be playing with fire. Joseph Curl, writing in the Washington Times wants to know if the President is a pathological liar? Charles Gasparino questions if Obama, Geithner and Daley have the good of the country in mind. The WSJ questions the President's commitment to spending cuts.
