Well, unless you've had your head in the ground, you've probably heard about Bush supporting a Same-Sex Marriage amendment.

Now, one thing to note is that it leaves Same-Sex Civil Unions alone. It allows the states to define it.

So, if the amendment is passed, and all the states agree to full rights for same-sex partners in civil unions, we'd have two separate institutions of unions, but are equal.

Separate...

but equal...

Hmm. That worked well before! [/sarcasm]

Don't worry tho. The Democrats at large are against this amendment, so the Republicans will need to pull at least ten dems over in the senate without losing any of their own, and even then many Republicans do NOT like the idea of an amendment on this topic.

Relax, Liz. Bush won't win this one.
