FROM WHAT?????

I assume he is referring to the serial adulterers out there in his republican party.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- President Bush said the "sacred institution" of marriage between a man and a woman must be defended against what he called activist court rulings.

Bush briefly brought up the topic, unprompted, while raising money here for a Republican congressional candidate, a day after the New Jersey Supreme Court decided that same-sex couples must be given the same rights as married people.

The court left it up to the state's Legislature to decide whether to extend those rights under the structure of marriage, civil unions or something else. (Watch a couple explain why, after 32 years, they want to be married -- 2:01 )

The president said the ruling "raises doubts about the institution of marriage."
