The Navajo Nation and same-sex "marriage"

Here's a dilemma for liberals: on April 22, the Navajo Nation Council voted unanimously to "void and prohibit" same sex marriages. The Dine Marriage Act of 2005 further states that the purposes of marriage in the Navajo Nation are to "promote strong families and to preserve and strengthen family values." Given that the left will almost automatically defer to Native American culture as being superior to anything in modern society, it will be very interesting to see how they will respond to this action. That is, if they respond to it at all. I suspect that if Native American people such as the Navajo happen to have a position the left agrees with, then it is proclaimed as "ancient wisdom" in harmony with the Earth. If, however, the Native American position goes against the left, it is likely to be conveniently ignored, or explained away as the result of some "corrupting influence" of the modern world. This generally fits how liberals like to see the Navajo and other native people: picturesque victims who supply bits of trendy feel-good philosophy and home decor, but who have no business thinking and acting for themselves. Or in other words, for the left, the only good Indian is a dependent Indian.
