I think he is 4 square against gay marriage, but is also mindful of the use of a amendment.

It takes years to do a amendment and he seems to be pursuing a quicker result as he waits for public opinion to gel.

A amendment may be needed in any case and I support going in that direction as we pursue other legal remedies.

I don't think the ammendment has much hope, but there are other steps he can take. The whole ammendment thing is a vague promise. But I think Bush needs to be make his position on gay marriage clear. It is not heartening to see Barbara Boxer being more critical of what's going on in San Francisco then Bush was. This is an issue he can win on, but he seems afraid of it.
