Sounds like he's just afraid of commitment

Are you freaking kidding me?

Brad Pitt says he won't marry Angelina Jolie until "everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able." That is so very noble of him.

Don't get me wrong. I have no problem with gay people, marriage, or any combination thereof. I just think it's a particularly weenie move for Brad to pull. If I were Angelina, I would be pissed. Given the fact -- unjust as it is -- that gay marriage is unlikely to be made legal across all 50 states within Mr. Pitt's lifetime, he might as well stare deeply into Angie's doe eyes, observe her quivering, ripe lips and say, "I wouldn't marry you if hell froze over. But here, let me offer this selfless, righteous reason."

And by the way, am I supposed to feel sorry for him? Are politicians? Are they going to start campaigning for gay marriage, claiming that they won't be able to live with themselves until poor little Brad and Angie can tie the knot?

I can think of many more effective ways to campaign for gay rights.* Which is why this whole thing is a load of c-r-a-p designed to make Brad look noble while masking his true failing as a man who can't commit. Not even to one of the most beautiful women in the world.

*Volunteer with an organization like the Human Rights Campaign. Send them money. Send letters to your elected representatives. Participate in marches, demonstrations. Do something like what Brangelina did in Namibia when they donated money to hospitals and maternity wards, i.e., support a cause that you care about by doing something practical and effective.
