The Ills of Marriage Visited Upon Homosexuals, The attempts to ban same-sex marriage. Great topic and very interesting. Congrats to entspeak for creating it.

There were many, many good choices. I went with an issue that is of great interest to me, and which was debated with passion.

Ban On Smoking In All Outdoor Public Places, Starting With Calabasas, CA

Wow! There were some terrific topics in Domestic Policy this year to choose from. It was a tough call.

I nominate BoF's thread A Long Dry Spell for the Minimum Wage http://www.americasdebate.com/forums/index...showtopic=11795

Great debating throughout this one!

I'll agree that this appeared to be a tough call, but I ultimately had to go with what should be the one issue that overshadows everything else that has been going on in the country for the past few years - at least for American patriots: Impeach Bush and Cheney.
