People that disregard facts shouldn't be surprised when they aren't taken seriously.
The initial basis for any rational discussion is that rationality will be applied. When people say that marriage in the US today reflects the traditions of marriage over the past few thousand years, they are ignorant, practicing deception, or both. IMO it's offensive for someone to blatantly disregard well-known facts and then to expect a serious audience.

- Oh, wait a minute, I forgot the most laughable part of this whole ludicrous spectacle: that it’s the Mormon Mitt Romney who’s insisting that marriage has “always” been between one man and one woman. Right—except that Romney’s own great-grandfather had five wives, before the LDS church, under massive pressure and persecution, reversed its doctrine on polygamy.
