Compare Obama’s speech:

“Of all the rocks upon which we build our lives, we are reminded today that family is the most important. And we are called to recognize and honor how critical every father is to that foundation.”

to Matalin’s words:

“People who live in the real world say the greatest threat to civil order is heterosexuals who don’t get married and are making babies. That’s an epidemic in crisis proportions. That is irrefutably more problematic for our culture than homosexuals getting married…”

First, she begins with an condescending “people who live in the real world”, followed by the words “threat”, “epidemic”, “crisis”, and the term “more problematic” (as if gay marriage was a problem).

One of these things is not like the other.
