Same-sex marriage is a contradiction in terms. How stupid if Virginia goes that route. Civil Unions, well that’s a horse of a different color, but marriage between the same sex is a non sequitur.
Virginia’s amendment not only bans civil unions but anything approximating civil unions. The AG at the time had to clarify that adults could have private contracts because the language is pretty much the toughest of any the state marriage amendments. That’s why it only got 57% in 2006 when all the other states that had amendments passed theirs in the mid 70% + ranges, in my opinion.
