Actually, I'm simply in agreement with Bush's stance on the issue. If you take out the requirement for same-sex unions to be considered a "sacred marriage" by the government, the whole issue is stripped of its controversy. It even becomes boring. This is about dry, logistical things like taxation, estate planning, and hospital visitation rights. Bush himself said, in a recent interview, that "I view the definition of marriage different from legal arrangements that enable people to have rights. States ought to be able to have the right to pass laws that enable people to be able to have rights like others." I just think this is much less of an issue than people are making it out to be.

This mindset is termed "denial" -liberals tend to be in a state of denial or in a state of delusion. Meanwhile reality happens...
