The dose of reality

I don't understand why the issues of abortion and gay marriage have to color almost every decision made by the state and federal governments. These two issues skew and delay action on almost everything from health care reform to selecting and approving a supreme court judge. There is no law in the USA that tells a woman she has to choose abortion, nor is there one that requires any religion or church denomination to perform or sanction gay marriages. That's how separation of church and state works.
